Well finally done. Can't believe it is over. Getting your life back is an understatement. But at the same time studying for months upon months and getting a stupid test over with no idea that you are going to get in Dental School or not, really sucks!!!!! But anywayz here goes.
AA-19
Bio-20
GChem-21
OChem-21
PAT-20
RC-16
QR-17
Overall the test is pretty hard. Especially on the Bio, RC, and QR. No joking about you have to know your stuff. INSIDE AND OUT!
BIO- This was the hardest science section by a long shot. 90% of the questions came out of the Destroyer, I went over the Destroyer about 6 times which helped me with most of the answers. But then came the curve balls. Questions that i can not even tell you where you can find them. The only way you could figure these question out were to eliminate all the wrong choices and hope for the best. Weird pictures that i have never seen in my life and don't even know in what kindom i can find them in. I can't even describe them it was so weird. Alll i can say is to definitely go over the Destroyer and know all the facts inside and out. Plus read the Schuam's bio.
GCHEM and OCHEM- I am putting these two section together becuase they were both easy( but not really easy). For these two sections i studied only the DAT Destroyer. I went over both sections 6 times. You really don't need anything but the destroyer for these two sections. Absoluty everything is in there and there is NO REASON should get below a 20 on these two sections. The only real problem is to decode what they are really asking for. The DAT is written in a different language then any other test prep material out there. If your are able to decode and understand what they are really asking for the you are golden.
PAT- I only used Kaplan and Topscore for this section. I just practiced the tests over and over. Kaplan and topscore are really good for this section exceptfor the angle rankings which are really hard.
RC- All i know is that reading the passages are a complete waiste of time. There is only one strategy for this section and it is SEARCH AND DESTROY.
QR- This section is tough. You need to get your hands on everything and anything that will prep you for this section( Kaplan, topscor, achiever, Barron's, Destroyer, etc. Also know you trig. a lot of trig problems.
Overall last year i only took Kaplan and didn't do so well. I not going into details but mostly 17's. If i didn't have the Destroyer i wouldn not know what to study from. Destroyer is a must. Also pick up the Schuams Bio, do all of topscore and Achiever twice. If if have all of these aids and you know all the material, you should go great. BUT ITS ALL UP TO UUUUUUU!!!
Good lucks guys, i will be around like usually writing posts. Also don't be afriad to emial me if you need any help.
OHH nd yeaa LOL tell me what you think: Overall GPA 3.31 and Science 3.2. I applied to NYU,BU, STonY Brook, PIttsburgh, UPENN, BUFFALO, Tufts, Howard, Maryland, UMDNJ, . Second time applying!!!
