Kaplan is the bare bones minimum of all of the DAT preps. No offense, but your score is something people can make by blindly clicking answers. If you are just taking Gen Chem 1, I assume you are a freshman. The best thing you can do now is to learn the material in class. You need to develop a solid understanding of the material before you even consider to prepare to take the DAT. Get A's in your classes, and really absorb all of the science material. The DAT is not in your immediate future. One step at a time.

if you have 2 yrs of undergrad science and and retained the info you don't need to study much; so just go to school moar

Imagine what you could've scored had you used better resources. 24? 26? You would be on your way to Harvard.

I hate it when people say this. I got a 23aa and pretty much only used Kaplan. I think that the practice tested were invaluable. They are harder than the real thing and they prepare you well.

Thank you guys. I am really appreciate the feedbacks you guys give me 🙂.
I am actually a comp science major and in my senior year now. Got my motivation to go dentistry pretty late... so i staying back one year taking prerequis. I would see where I can go... but I think i can do it, my iron-hand education in my home country train me pretty much in memorization. Thank you agains for your time 🙂
