Hi everyone,
This is my first time posting..
But I did come to this website regulary and learned a lot about materials
needed for DAT..and this website really really helped me a lot 😀
Thank you guys..
I am posting my scores pretty late because I came to my home country
(I am Korean).
So here are my scores..
Bio 24
GC 23
OC 30 😀
QR 20
RC 20
PAT 23
AA 23
TS 25
Study material? I basically used the same stuff as mentioned on this website (Schaum AP, Cliff, Kaplan BB, Crack DAT PAT).
BIO:
I didn't like Cliff that much because it was too condensed and the book
itself was sooooooooo boring....I think I read few chapters that I was not confident of. People say Kaplan BB is useless, but I think if you know every single thing in that book, it will really help you. (Of course, you need extra material) Also Kaplan online was really helpful...
GC :
I took Orgo without taking Second part of Genchem.. So I took GC class really late...(It was Fall 07) so my memory was really fresh. Also since the professor was really harsh on our class, I really learned a lot about GC in that class.. Also, I used Kaplan BB to organize the info in my brain.. and I think that was enough.
OC :
When I saw my score..I couldn't believe my eyes..yeah I did have good feeling when I was taking Orgo part, but I didn't expect 100 percentile...Um, I think Destroyer is really helpful, and I read Kaplan BB also.
PAT:
I did practice a lot with Crack PAT, and it was really helpful..Hole punch was a little bit harder than I was thinking. I saw many posts that punch is a bit similar with topscore which is really easy..but the real hole punch was a bit similar with achiever..I was horrible with this subject few months ago...and after many practices I ended up with 23!!!😉 So, I can tell you guys, PRACTICE, PRACTICE, and PRACTICE!
QR :
Guys, I can say that this subject is getting harder and harder..!
I am good at Math.. (well, at least I thought so...haha) and my scores in practice exams were around 21-24 every time with 10 minutes left in the end....But, the real exam was so hard..there were a lot of word problems...and geometry questions were so hard compare to any practice material..I mean 20 isn't bad.. but I was dissapointed at my score. I don't know what to say about Math part..from the questions that I saw on my DAT, I can't say that practice will help you.(they are really random)
Anyway...I studied about 2 months...9hours per day..and I am glad that all my efforts are paid off...!!I was sick until the day before my exam..and I was worried about my exam...but I did it~! If you study hard, I believe you will be fine. Be confident! I don't know what I can help you guys out, but please feel free to ask me questions.. 🙂
Good luck
