Hi everyone!
So I took my first DAT today and here was my breakdown:
AA: 19
Bio: 17 (wtf)
GC: 19
OC: 20
TS: 18
PAT: 19
RC: 23
QR: 17
I've decided to retake b/c obviously the BIO and I want to get into UIC Dental. Im studying Biochem at UIC currently but omfg dental is super competitive. I'm so confused lol I've always gotten A's in BIO. It was a lot tougher than any of my practice exams for sure. Anyways I wanted to see what prep all of you 21+ folks out there used and strategies. TBH I really didn't prepare as much as I should have. I only studied for about 3 weeks for a total of maybe 75 hours. All I used was Kaplan (it was meh) and notes from prev. classes. Oh and Chad's vids was amazing. I wanted to get BOOTCAMP b/c I really loved it But I just only discovered it the week before. Is Destroyer worth it?? I'm really aiming for 21+ across the board.

Oh and what was weird was after the PAT section I got a 30 min break?? I only took 5 mins to pee and eat a snack but I thought that was strange. I was expecting 15. Is this new?

Thanks in advance!!

Get destroyer and bootcamp. Since you've already done chad's those are really all you need to break 20+. Good luck!
