hi. what materials would you recommend to get the most out of preparation for the DAT? i've taken the MCAT a couple times, so i'm not coming into it cold. since the deadline for some schools is december 1st. is it realistic to start studying and take the DAT a month from now? or would more time be needed. I'm not taking any classes so would have plenty of time in the day to commit to it. thanks for you help.

Kaplan DAT book 3rd editon
Topscore pro
Barrons DAT book (mainly for PAT)
Some biology outline for phylogeny
http://www.acethedat.com for PAT and math mostly
Any other resources possible for PAT
MCAT books are good for a more in depth understanding of what is covered in the kaplan DAT book
haha, hilarious.
Dr Taco's right though, thats exactly what you need...

IMO...agree with DrTacoElf with preparation materials. If you're prepared for the MCAT, then you're prepared for the DAT with the exception of Quantitative Reasoning and Reading Comp passages are a bit longer.
acethedat is the place to go for math. Be careful with the Quantitative Reasoning practice tests in Barron's though. There are some false answers. Some people would argue that is to be expected, but I disagree when we're forking over dollars for these products.
Otherwise...good luck!
