Hey everyone,

i'm a canadian applicant that is thinking about writing the american DAT, but i have no idea what to expect. Can anyone help me with these questions, please?

1) What's the format/order of the exam? Write ___ section, 10 minute break, write____ section?

2) Do you get scrap paper? i've heard that the american is all on the computer..do you just do the math in your head for the QR section? What's the best way to study for QR?

3) how the hell do you do cubes on the computer?! that boggles my mind..everyone i know writes on the cubes for the Candian DAT, so how do you manage to keep track of all the cubes on the computer?

4) i HATE organic chemistry more than anything in this world, even hitler... are these simple straight forward questions that i could just review my notes/blue kaplan book and memorize the mechanisms? or do i have to understand all the theories and stuff?

5) is there organic I and II on it? organic II, meaning biological organic chemistry (carbs, lipids, amino acids, etc.)

any other details that I should know about would be greatly appreciated..i'm actually going a little crazy and would like to know if this is doable
