This is my third one. One month studying.
PAT 22
QR 25
RC 15
Bio 20
GC 22
OC 23
TS 21
AA 21

BIO: only Kaplan BB and destroyer.
GC : Kaplan BB and a note from last year.
OC : I just took orgo 2 last semester, so I didn't really study for this section.
QR : No study.
PAT : One topscore set.
RC : No study.

My top desired schools are Columbia and NYU. RC 15 will be killing me? Please, give me some comments. My gpa is 3.8, but it's calculated to 3.5 by ADA.
Engineering degree and 2 years work experience as computer engineer and as a consultant. Research experience for 8 months in engineering.
Few volunteering hours and shadowing hours. No research in any Bio related topics.
I have no plan for one year and would be happy if you guys gave me some thoughts.
Thanks!

How do the 2 other attempts at the DAT compare with this one? Have you improved?

Just curious, did you have any taxonomy/ecology questions on your bio section? Any plant questions?

great score for a month. you must be very smart. if they bother your RC, just don't go, go to other many schools that appreciate your effort.

btw, ADA gap is the one when you click on 'GPA calculations' in the application status in the application webpage?

mine is only 0.02 difference...mm or am i reading the wrong section?

Yes, we are on the same page. What the difference is because I got some 'C's when I was in undergrad. I am a post-bac.

And, I didn't have any plant question, I guess, or if I had had, it might be easy. one taxonomy question. I don't know whether I got it right or not, I got one specific animal name I have never heard in my life.
