BO 17
GC 17
OC 20
TS 18
AA 17

PA really easy stuff shocked that I got an 18.
QR like 30 word problems, ran out of time and had to guess.
RC I can read english, but my first passage was 21 paragraphs and the second was 28 and the third was 18. You could not scan like in practice tests because the questions were alot of tone and very specific.
BIO studied hard for this one but got chicken tooth question FRAP, and three random pictures along with a few out of this world questions.
GC really easy very surpriced at my score?
OC easy, studied the least for this can you tell?
I used Kaplan, destroyer, and acheiver. Destroyer is blown out of proportion
on this site I think. The majority of the destroyer stuff is in kaplan. I would only buy it for the Chem, and Ochem (very good for these). The destroyer Bio section is simmilar to kaplan (online) and the QR is a joke, kaplan is much better for QR. Just my opinion dont get mad please.
Any thoughts on my chances. Thanks.
 
I am sorry, but even with a 3.5, I would suggest a retake. This is not saying that you won't get interviews, but just to be safe I think a retake is worth it.

Even with current score, I think you may still be able to get some interview, esp. from your state school.

Good luck!
 
I agree, I know that QR isn't the most important however u want the add comm to be confident in u. with a good GPA they'll be wondering about ur score...retake, it won't be too late, i'm taking it again in november
 
hey poopypants,

About achiever, how did you get your score displayed? Having a bit of trouble with it.
 
Click on generate scores, then top left score report drop down menu. There are three different score reports. Good Luck!

I'm surprised the DAT "moral majority" crew isn't all over the forums these days....I thought discussing DAT questions was something that could get you castrated.
 
It's ok to mention a broad topic, but not to mention specific details. Trust me saying chicken tooth problem tells nothing about the question, it's only so other individuals who experienced the problem can relate. And as far as all the pm's I get regarding details of specific problems, I will never violate the code of moral ethics, as I dont want to hurt myself or other students.
