8/06 Today
bio: 21 21
chm: 20 21
ochm: 22 22
RC: 19 20
QR: 14 17
PAT: 20 21
AA: 19 20
Sci: 21 21

Bio was really harder than last years. Couple of questions where there are stuff you're not going to encounter in any text book. I studied like 5 diff. bio books, n it still wasn't enough.

Chm: Half were like calculations, so i was kinda thrown off by everybody saying there were few calcs.

Ochm: Couple reactions that didn't really make sense, like one questions answer choices didn't match my product. All answers choice had an extra carbon when they weren't supposed to (typO?)

PAT: I thought i would have gotten nearly perfect. I had like 10 min. leftover and dbl checked the marked ones.

QR: i Got lucky, I guessed on like half, and still barely had enough time to finish.

RC: passages were okay, i got one on etymology or somthing about study of disease, neurosci, and last one (easiest) about engineering floatable bridges.

Anyways, study hard and good luck to all of you taking DAT soon.

(Btw) I have lots of stuff i have available to sell. If your interested, pm me.
 
congratulations!!! you improved (or remained the same) in every subject!!! good luck with the rest of the process; im sure adcoms will look highly upon your better scores
 
are you serious about Gchem. evryone says at most 3-4 calculations. Im feeling thrown off
 
congrats on nice scores. i know you studied hard. relax now and party time!
 
Yo thanks for the replies guys. i studied so much, i felt like i was gonna get a way higher score than i got last year, oh well. Hey do you guys know how many missed questions = a 20 or 21? like 3-5 questions missed = 20?

Hey moral, where do you have interviews for?

good question. if the DAT is indeed a bit harder than does that means its slightly easier to get a higher score if you get more questions right? but im quite sure if you only miss say 3 questions out of bio that will give you more than just a 20..im thinking 37/40 would be about a 23. on chem a 27/30 is a 22 and org about the same

There is a PDF called "score frequency tables" under the reference heading on the right side:
