Hello everyone, I've been a longtime lurker and I just took my DAT recently.
Perceptual Ability - 18
Quantitative Reasoning - 17
Reading Comprehension - 18
Biology - 19
General Chemistry - 18
Organic Chemistry - 16
Total Science - 18
Academic Average - 18
I know I'll probably have to retake the exam but the reason I'm posting is, I honestly have no idea how to improve (except QR. I just didn't study for it.) I took the 2009 DAT Exam prior to my exam and these were my results (using the 2007 score sheet):
Perceptual Ability - 21 (75/90)
Quantitative Reasoning - 18 (25/40)
Reading Comprehension - 19 (just ball-parking I have no idea how to grade this)
Biology - 20 (30/40)
General Chemistry - 25 (29/30)
Organic Chemistry - 21 (26/30)
(didn't calc TS / AA)
I went through destroyer and consistently got 75-90% of the questions correct (excluding BIO which I didn't do.) I can blow through chad's quizzes like clockwork, I consistently scored 21+ on Crack the DAT, I averaged 20-21 on qvault BIO. I got 23+ on each section provided in the DAT Bootcamp (didn't do QR.) Needless to say, I'm at odds to how I scored what I did; especially considering I scored well on literally everything. I don't know if I just got royally dicked in terms of DAT versions or whatever but I'm not really sure where to go from here.
Just for the funsies, I don't suppose a 3.75 oGPA / 3.6 sGPA / 3.8 BCP GPA could overcome these trashy scores?
Any suggestions / input is kindly appreciated.
Edit: Got a 22 AA / TS on retake!!
