I'm thinking of going into ortho, so I'm shooting for a 99. I shot for a 30 in the DAT and wasn't so far off, so I figured shooting for perfection will always pay off, although you feel very dissapointed right after the exam.

The thing was I only spent a month studying for the DAT, because it was more of a "review" type of exam than a specific detail exam. I was wondering how much time you guys are going to spend studying for the NBDEI if you're taking it this summer. Is a slow review of this semester's stuff next semester, essentially "studying" for 6 months, overkill? I hear people studying for 1 week on this forum and getting 91s...
