Is it helpful to take biochemistry before the DAT? I have heard mixed things and my pre-health advisor isn't getting back to me (choosing classes soon).

I think I answered your question already.

In that case, are none of the three subjects explicitly tested? Then it might make sense to take A&P junior year, after my DAT.

This is what is covered in organic chemistry (update 2025):

At any rate, get your major prerequisites scheduled. It would make sense to get A&P done your junior year terms, though i don't know what other courses constrain your progress to degree.

Yes... but while not required, will it be more difficult to score in the 90th percentile or above without having taken this course?

The content of the test hasn't changed. Do you want me to ask the moderator to move your question to the DAT forum?
