is the PAT the only one worth buying? what about the math, sciences, and reading?
also, does it really matter which package you buy? they just vary in price so much. obviously more practice probs are great...but if youre on a budget, would the $79 package (450 practice qs for CRACK DAT PAT) be sufficient?
thanks! 🙂
I heard that the explanations for the math problems are terrible and somewhat confusing, although I haven't personally used it. But I personally think instead of purchasing the math and science softwares, you'd be better off if you purchase destroyer.
I bought the one with 10 PAT tests for about 90$, but my understanding is that they have recently increased the price. So, I think you'll be fine even if you buy the one with 5 tests. The thing is that in addition to those 5 tests, the software gives you an option to generate random tests. In other words, when you choose that option, the program randomly chooses a series of questions and combines them to generate a new test for you. So, in reality, you have more than 5 tests to work with.
At the end, it really comes down to how much practice you feel like you need. If you think you're struggling with PAT, then obviously you need more practice, which means you should invest the money and purchase the package that provides you with more practice exams. On the other hand, if you trust your PAT capabilities, then just go with the 5-test package.
Applying to dental school is a long, painful, and awfully expensive process, so +/-40$ shouldn't have a major effect, specially when you'll be spending 500+ just to submit a stupid application!
