Essential Resources for DAT Success
Dr. Romano's DAT Class
Dr. Romano's DAT Class was absolutely indispensable, especially for chemistry. If you're finding Organic Chemistry or General Chemistry challenging, this class is a must.DAT and Math Destroyer
Both the DAT Destroyer and Math Destroyer were spot-on with their practice content. They closely matched the actual exam, making them invaluable for preparation.DAT Destroyer Study Group
Participating in the DAT Destroyer Study Group was incredibly beneficial. The daily questions posted there were challenging and significantly boosted my prep.Free Biology Review & YouTube Videos
Dr. Romano’s free Bio Review and over 600 free YouTube videos were game-changers. These resources are perfect for brushing up on weak topics.Study Tips & Strategies
Chemistry & Biology
I struggled with Organic and General Chemistry due to COVID-era classes, but the resources mentioned above helped me build a strong understanding. Biology had some tricky questions, but I managed to reason them out.Reading & Math
While reading wasn’t too challenging, I did encounter an error in one passage and reported it to the ADA. Math was my weakest section, but I’m satisfied with my score as it should be enough for dental school.GPA & Test Strategy
With a 3.7 GPA, I took the DAT exam for the first and last time. If I were to do it again, I would focus solely on the DAT Destroyer and Math Destroyer. Timed tests weren’t accurate and added unnecessary stress.Final Thoughts
A massive thank you to Dr. Romano, Nancy, and the Orgoman Team for their fantastic support and resources. These tools were critical to my success.On to the next step in my dental school journey! 🦷
