I just took the 2009 ADA DAT and i only took 4 sections timed BIO/GC/OC/PAT/QR and i made a 20/24/21/23/19 respectively, just wondering how accurate is it in your guys experience?

and i had one question on number 89, it was asking how many isomeric mono substitution products are possible on naphthalene? can someone explain this question and answer, the answer is 2

Why didn't you take the entire exam timed? It's a little easier than the real thing, but the QR is substantially harder.

and even the bio is harder?

Each exam is different but the general consensus is that the 2009 is usually a tad bit easier. I thought my bio section was personally harder than the 2009.

2009 QR and RC were more difficult than my actual exam. My Bio was much more difficult than the 2009 though.
