I've been studying for DAT for quiet some time and am finally taking it on May 4th, which is approximately a week from now. I am pretty confident with my preparation in all the sections except General Chemistry. For some reason no matter how much I study, I still feel I might mess up and make a careless mistake. For next 7 or so days, I will work on the full length exams and work on my timings. How did you feel a week before your exam and what did you do the last week? Were you worried about general chemistry or thought you knew everything?
I need to calm down so any advice will be really helpful and greatly appreciated.
Thank You
 
I didn't seriously start hitting the full lengths until the week leading up to my exam. It definitely helps with stamina. I also read up on High-Yield Bio to review Biology concepts, that was pretty useful. For me Topscore and Achiever told me I was ready even though mentally I felt there were still a gazillion small things I still needed to know. I got a dismal 18 on Topscore but scored a couple points higher on the real thing, just be sure to go over ALL the solutions to the problems you missed and even the ones you get right! One more thing....don't guess on the practice exams because that can possibly inflate your practice score....but do do it on the real thing.
 
Where did you buy your Topscore? I thought you have to down the software from their website. I need to pick one up too.
 
They give you an option when you order. I really couldn't download coz I use mac, so i bought the cd and will use it on windows.
