i took the MCAT a couple years ago, and trying to figure out how the DAT compares. are the questions passage based? or are they all "individual" questions with no connection to each other? I have the Kaplan DAT book you can buy anywhere and the CD, and the test on the CD is all "individual" questions. i have the subject tests from Kaplan in .pdf format as well. but those all seem to be discrete type problems as well.

Is the practice test on the ADA site a fairly accurate presentation of the real test?

i hope all that made sense. 😕

and if anyone has taken both MCAT and DAT, how does the difficulty of the science sections compare?

thanks

Awe, couldn't hack it in pre-med eh?

DAT is easier than the MCAT. Questions are not passage based.

Just be careful of the PAT, then you'll be fine. Reading comp is a joke compared to VR.
