Just done my DAT 2 hours ago,
PAT 23 96.4%
QR 30 100%
RC 19 52.2%
Bio 19 76.6%
GC 26 98.8%
OC 23 94.4%
TS 21 91.6%
AA 23 98.7%
Very hard in my opinion. Especially in Bio. Less than 5 straight forward questions; questions are hard to understand, seems like asking questions with applications.
GC is ok, but not easy as i thought. ( I'm Chem major)
OC is hard. Couple lab questions about TLC, extraction.
PAT is ok. I would say the angle and patten folding are very hard. I could not finish the last 5 folding questions, just guessing. The shade parts are hard to see on the screen!
RC: hard in my opinion.(I am ESL student), no piano, but antibiotic and medicines. Looks like I only got half right and getting a 19. The hardness can be imaged. I would say only 50% are details, all others are tone, i hate the question like" what word best described the paragraph X ?" Even though, it is a single adj word, I don't know the meaning any of them.
QR is ok.but 4 possibility questions, 3 are hard. I did educated guessing on those three, luckily, i got all right.
Be honest, I would expect to have 23,25,23 on my DAT. I almost give up during the test, i found the nature science is hard than any of the practice test such as, 6 Kaplan online exams, 3 DAT Achieves, 3 Topscores. My three topscores are:
1. 21, 23, 22
2. 22, 25, 23
3. 22, 24, 22
anyways, i felt so pressured during these days, time for me to relax. Seriously, I really don't wanna retake it. Its such a torture to me.
Materials I used:
Bio: Kaplan Blue book(from Kaplan classroom, over 1000 pages), CliffAP, Barrons, DAT destroyer.
If anyone have the same test as me, I would say the kaplan and Cliffap are useless, DAT destroyer would more useful. But I did not really review the destroyer, I did review at least twice of Kaplan and CliffAP, I can say I know every details of those two books, even the 6 types of fungi and protista. But nothing was on the test.
GC: Kaplan, DAT destroyer. destroyer is very helpful.
Comparing to the other twos, this is the easiest in three science parts.
OC: kaplan, DAT destroyer. (destroyer is really helpful). Couple Lab questions confused me.
PAT: kaplan online, Crack DAT PAT. This is my strongest part, all 5 Crack DAT test are 22 or 23. I felt I did the right choice, the topscores and kaplan are too easy.
RC: Crack DAT reading. This is my weakest part since i am a ESL student. All 5 tests are about 15,17. Not a one over 18, shame..
QR: kaplan online. I am very good at math unless there are some kind of word problem that i don't understand. Possibility are hard on my DAT.
I spent a lot money on preparing my DAT.
Kaplan classroom $1200+, crack dat pat+ reading $160, DAT achiever $60, topscores $60, CliffAP and others $200.
I don't know if they changed test's hardness, but the time I spent on Bio is useless and meaningless.
Any questions, feel free to ask me. Excuse my English, i am a ESL student. Time for me to play! Hell Yea!
