Hello everyone.
I'm finally done with the DAT. Honestly feel like the whole world was lifted off my shoulders. I want to say thank you all so much for recommending the study materials and for posting your breakdowns. You all really helped me a lot along the way although you might not even know it. I appreciate it so so so much 🙂. And here's my score:

Perceptual ability 21 (83.1%)
Quantitative reasoning 20 (88.3%)
Reading comprehension 22 (85.9%)
Biology 20 (86.5%)
General chemistry 23 (93.7%)
Organic chemistry 21 (84.6%)
TS 21 (90.3%)
AA 21 (91.3%)

My GPA is 3.8. My science GPA should be around there or higher. I have been shadowing and doing research for more than a year. Since I live in Florida, I hope to get into UF for cheaper tuition. But if not, I want to get in some school on the east coast so I don't have to move too far from home. What do you think of my chance? I appreciate any opinion or advice from you guys 🙂
 
No way you'll ever get into a dental school with those scores! Haha just kidding. But wow... not a single score below a 20... I think you're pretty much set. All you have to do now is kill your interviews and you should have no problem getting into at least a few dental schools. Take your pick!
 
Wow, those are some nice scores there! Job well done 🙂

What did you think of the test? How did it compare to the study material that you used?

I think it was as hard as I expected. The PAT was very close to CrackDAT. Orgo chem was basic just like Chad's videos. Same for gen chem. Bio was random lol so you just have to try and get as much info as you can lol
