I just want to start out by saying how much of a relief it is to have finally put the DAT behind me. With that being said 18 PAT/19 QR/ 18 RC/ 22 Bio/22GC/21Orgo/ TS 22/ AA 20.
I used Orgoman's DAT destroyer and Math Destroyer, Kaplan Blue Book, and Crack DAT Pat. Out of all these resources I have the say the DAT Destroyer is the best. Without it I wouldn't have been able to go into the exam nearly as confident. While I didn't score any crazy 28's I have to say that I pleased with my consistency.
Getting down to the wire with only a week left I was scoring 15's and 16's in the PAT. Thanks to Crack the Pat's helpful explanations, I was able to score a 18 which im rather proud of.
Kaplan helped a great deal when practicing with RC. I have to say I have no idea how I managed an 18 on that one though. I guessed on at least 8-10. Luckily the questions I did answer, I knew were right. The passages weren't as bad as some of the ones I practiced, and when your in the heat of the moment anything can sound interesting thank heavens.
The Sciences....Im pleased with a TS of 22 just disappointed in the Organic Section. I knew my stuff inside and out I just didn't realize how much time could be a factor. I started with 15 minutes left and barely managed to finish. The destroyer roadmaps were incredibly helpful. I knew I was ready for the real deal when I was able to go through them without a second thought as to why the product is what it was. Gen Chem was a joke compared to the destroyer. I was actually most worried about this section and somehow scored the highest in it. As for Biology, I spent the most time studying for this section. I decided before using the destroyer that I didn't have a good enough background in Biology to even begin looking at it, like I wasnt worthy enough. I started by teaching myself anatomy from the Campbell book, which gave me a solid foundation. I highlighted, took notes, and treated studying for it like I was studying for a regular biology exam. When it came time, it made using the destroyer a lot easier. The destroyer highlights the most important points from each topic, whether its the immune system, plants, taxonomy, or anatomy. The questions themselves were made to teach you the material and really puts things in a simplistic manner. Overall, Im very pleased with the way the exam went, and now its time to relax!
