Hey guys,
This forum helped me a lot with many questions and it's only right I give back share my experience/recommendations for defeating the DAT.
Background: I'm currently a junior in Biomedical Engineering and already took my core science classes (Orgo, GC etc). I studied for the DAT since July for two months (10-13 hours a day).
My scores:
PAT: 24
QR: 21
RC: 19
Biology: 22
GC: 28
OC: 29
TS 25
AA 24
Biology: I would say this was the most diverse section for the entire test. I memorized all of Feralis Notes (Really good resource!), Cliffs, and used DAT Destroyer to tackle the broad concepts. However, there were two random questions that i never studied before. DAT Destroyer and Feralis are the way to go for this section, however, to really study the important specific concepts.
GC: This was quite what I expected to see. Chad's videos are still alive and kicking even though they are a couple years old (CHAD IS THE MAN). I would also say DAT Bootcamp is on par with this as well, with the style of how questions are asked. DAT Destroyer also was a must for this section.
OC: DAT Destroyer, coupled with Chad's videos, will get you through this section, easily. Bootcamp really reinforced my concepts and their practice tests were on par.
Perceptual Ability: This was one of the toughest sections on my DAT. For keyholes, the rocks from MARSSSS that everyone talks about on here appeared on my DAT, along with very weird shapes. Overall, the Angle Ranking, Pattern Folding, Cube counting were on par with DAT Bootcamp. The rest of the sections were slightly more difficult and I have no clue how I pulled of a 24 (really thought i did horrible).
RC: After break, my contacts started acting up and I really couldn't focus on reading the paragraphs. It was simple search and destroy questions (not very much like BC). I definitely could have done better on this section.
QR: I was so worn out by this section. I still manged to finished 8 minutes early, but i would say Math Destroyer is really worth it for this section.
I wanna say thanks to Dr. Romano for his amazing DAT Destroyer along with Ari and the Bootcamp team.
