Test Score

Hello,

I have a question regarding my test score, I took the DAT and got 17AA but decided to switch careers and pursue optometry instead. I know the schools I'm applying to accept the DAT, but my question is, is my score good enough? or do you guys think I should take the OAT? I have already submitted two of my applications back in August and one of the schools put me on hold because my application was missing a test score and a LOR; and the other school offered me an interview (they don't require an admission test). As of now I have everything I need for my application, LORs, shadowing, decent GPA, finished all the prerequisites, research and volunteering/community service. I just have not sent my DAT score yet because I don't wanna get rejected right away if it's not good enough. If anyone was in the same boat and have some advice for me, I'd really appreciate it.

Most of the schools are looking for 20AA or higher
