Sooo, I am a nontraditional applicant this year. Mother of a toddler, teacher of 7 years, and a wealth of experience in working with people since college. Undergard GPA 3.56. Applied in June and just need to feel out secondaries.

DAT score (took on August 29, 2011):
PAT: 22
QR: 19
RC: 18
BIO: 18
GC: 19
OC: 22
Total Sci: 20
Academic Average: 19

I only used Destroyer and took the Kaplan course at the same time. I have had great reviews from people I know but after looking at some SDN posts, just wanted to get feedback from strangers.

Anyone mind?

Thanks in advance. Good luck to everyone this year in the application cycle! I will be filling out secondaries this week!

I am very impressed! I'm a nontraditional applicant (with no kids/spouse might I add) who will be taking the DAT next summer and am hoping to get scores like that!

Only used the DAT destroyer and Kaplan? How long did you study? Or did you just teach a course on "How to do well on the DAT" for those seven years? Haha.

Bravo. 👍

thank you so much for your support!!! I am nervous about applying simply BC Ifeel like an underdog....I studied all summer for about 5-8 hours a day. I also ran my tutoring business full time and had my son in camp all while my husband was away working out of state. every second I had free I was studying. used a recorder to record Bio questions so I could study while driving. I felt like the kaplan course and destroyer were enough study material. I don't know how others on sdn were able to use more materials and go through all of it! it took me all summer to go through just those 2 resources. feel free to ask me anything else. good luck my fellow nontrad app!!
