What do you guys think should I retake it what should I do...I really don't know


Thank you guys
 
Hey your scores are pretty strong, and your GPA is pretty decent as well. In my opinion you are pretty competitive.. Im not the expert but I would say you have a chance with your stats

Apply to the schools you want. I would not retake it yet. You scores are average, you have chances, just apply.

Thank you so much I feel better!
 
I bet it feels good to be done with the damn test... I envy you! How was the PAT? As hard as bootcamp?

I did achiever PAT! So achiever was much harder omg the cube counting was a joke so was the pattern folding. The hardest was TFE and angles for me. But dude honestly stay calm it wasn't that bad I think I just panicked. Its much easier than bootcamp and achiever and if you did CDP then its pretty comparable.
 
how were the science sections compared to bootcamp? are they actually easier? and QR?

pretty comparable I thought the OCHEM was a lot easier and the bio was ALOT like destroyer. The gen chem was just like destroyer but I had to guess on a couple because you don't get a calculator and like I was lost without one so yeah but it wasn't bad
 
regarding the calculator... do we actually have to know how to estimate logs etc? i heard destroyer's gen chem was a lot more difficult than the actual (the 2007 gen chem and ochem seemed quite easy.. way easier than bootcamp, way way easier than destroyer).

I had one log but it was an easy log it came out to zero or something. But I had a rate problem which I didnt know how to do without a calculator.
 
Oh no no don't worried I meant like if you know how to do the problems in destroyer than the DAT Gen Chem will be a piece of cake.
