Just got home from the testing center! This was my first and only time taking the DAT. I'm very happy with how it all turned out!

PAT:
I thought I'd score a little higher than 20 on this, but I'm definitely happy with this score. To study, I mainly used Crack DAT PAT. It was pretty similar to the actual test. I think angle ranking was a lot easier on the actual DAT. Top Front End was a lot easier on the DAT than they were on Achiever.
QR:
To study for this I used Destroyer and Achiever. The problems were very approachable. The calculator worked fine (I'd heard it was slow and laggy for a lot of people). I didn't get any questions that were insanely difficult. Destroyer problems were very representative of the actual problems. Achiever was harder. Most of the time I couldn't finish the QR section on Achiever.
RC:
I didn't study at all for this one. I'd taken a couple practice tests with Achiever and Crack DAT. The passages were not too incredibly boring. They were much more pleasant to read than the ones in the practice tests.
BIO:
I studied for this with Destroyer, Achiever, Kaplan Blue Book and Barron's DAT book. Achiever and Destroyer questions are WAY harder than the actual DAT questions. The questions didn't seem over my head. I didn't get any development questions, which I studied pretty hard.
GC:
I knew this would be my lowest scoring section. I studied for it by using Chad's Video's, Destroyer, and Achiever. Chad is an absolute gem. Didn't get any delta H/multiple equation calculations at all.
OC:
This score blew my mind. When I took Organic Chemistry, I got a B and two C+s. I failed the ACS. I studied for this section using Chad's Video's, Destroyer, and Achiever. I was consistently getting 17's in this section on Achiever. Chad is what saved me. I just remembered the reactions he highlighted, and it got me a great score.
I'm so flippin' happy to get this done! I've been studying for the last three months while taking 19 credits at school. I was shaking and almost crying when my score popped up on the screen! Made the last few months totally worth it!
