I gotta show my appreciation for this forum... but I'll be brief...(I took the test on 4 hours of sleep...but here goes):
PAT 22 (97.2%)
QR 21
RC 19
BIO 21
GC 23
OC 24
TS 23 (97.7%)
AA 22 (95.4%)
With the exception of RC (damn bridges...), I couldnt be happier with my scores. Theyre definately a little higher than my practice scores. (I didnt take a DAT prep course, but I have connections...)
(Bio/GC/OC)
Kaplan Diagnostic 19/19/18 (RC18/QR19/PA20)
ADA Practice Test 23/30/30
TopscoreI 17/18/17 (RC23/QR18/PA25)
AchieverI 16/19/16 (RC22/QR20/PA20)
Princeton594 22/20/26
Princeton591 25/19/18
TopscoreII 19/19/21 (RC25/QR19/PA25)
KaplanII 19/19/20
KaplanI 23/19/20
AchieverII 17/18/17 (RC18/QR19/PA20)
KaplanIII 23/18/18
KaplanIV 25/20/25
TopscoreIII 21/19/21 (RC21/QR21/PA25)
Princeton593 24/24/18

AchieverIII 19/16/19 (RC--/QR21/PA20)
What else can I say? Do practice tests if you can get a hold of em.
Heres what I used:
-Kaplan Big Book
-Kaplan Small Book
-AP Cliff Bio
-Cliff DAT
-DESTROYER
-Old physio book
-Shaum's Organic Chemistry Crash Course Book
-GChem AND OChem videos by Chad ("coursesaver")
Tips:
-Take notes on everything you read
-When youre all done, type them up, print, and highlight
-Destroyer is a definite must for GC and OC (I went thru the whole book 2x)
-Make flash cards for the destroyer OC road maps and any reaction you see in Kaplan
-Check out the videos by Chad, I owe him...BIG TIME
-AP Cliff is a great supplement for bio
-Do NOT fail to get sleep. Way too important. I freaked out, so I had to rely on coffee to keep me awake. This made me go to the bathroom FOUR times in the middle of the test....not good.
What I wouldve done better:
-I shouldve bought CrackDatPat... I think I lost points on the angles.
-I shouldve practiced more RC (...but how?)
With that said, I hope you all do well. Use this forum as a resource for motivation. BTW, I studied about 2 months solid... Good luck!
