Hi guys, I'm new here!
I have a pretty low gpa but I wanted to apply this year anyways! I know my only saving grace would be the DATs! I was just wondering what advice you guys have for studying for each section:
Bio
Gen Chem
OChem
QR
PAT
RC

Really hard to go that in depth here, but you definitely should invest in DAT Bootcamp and (depending on your money situation), the DAT destroyer. DATQVault is another solid resource for the sciences
Be dedicated and get through all of the material and you should be set up will in general
Good luck, feel free to message me if you have any questions!

Thank you for the reply! Should I invest in Kaplan?

Similar situation - applying with low GPA and hopefully high DAT. How long do you plan to study for?

For a short answer, personally, absolutely not. I took several tests and found them to be nowhere close to what the actual test was like. DAT Bootcamp and destroyer is the way to go.

Okay I'll get those study materials! Thank you!

I'm planning to take it late July so 6 weeks, 9-10 hours a day!

Regardless of what companies you choose to study through, make sure you have some form of content review to study the material and some form of practice questions that are similar to the real exam questions. Good luck studying!

Thank you for the reply! I just want good study material that's worth the money! I think I'm going with the DAT bootcamp and DAT destroyer combo!

Okay I'll start looking at breakdowns and start creating a schedule for myself! Thank you!
