Im getting like 13/30 correct still for Bio, Chem, and Ochem. My DAT is on July 22. Am I behind or is this normal? Im trying to rewatch chads and do destroyer at the same time. Any other tips?

Yeah they want you to hand calculate everything I hate it

Just finished the o chem section and almost done with gen chem. O chem I got about 18 out of 30 towards the last half and 23 out of 30 towards the end in gen chem. About 6-7 out of 10 in bio. It's hard for sure. Id been studying about a month before I started doing it though so id like to think I had a decent background before I started. I hear the real money in it comes from going through it a second time. Use it as a study tool just like you would cliffs ap bio or Chad's videos then go through it again more like a test. At least that's what I'm gonna do. My test is July 29th

Well, at first yah. I complete the book tomorrow. The best I've done in orgo is 4 wrong, worst is 22. Bio is about 12-18 (hasn't really changed much for me). Gen chem went from about missing 22/30 to missing 11/30. You just have to go through it. You should be fine if you finish the book and memorize roadmaps.
To be frank, I think bio is the hardest section since it's the biggest.

how long did it take you guys to go through it? I feel like its taking me two hours every 30 questions because I'm trying to learn every problem I got wrong. WHICH IS ALOT.

It took me two weeks to go through orgo section, and in still struggling with the gen chem parts so I gave up on that, and finished bio ~ rereading it tomorrow (solutions mostly)

I'm tackling all three sections at once. Well, 4 if you count QR. I don't say this to toot my own horn but I'm finding the QR fairly easy...is this what I should expect? As far as the sciences, I started off really slow but got faster as I went. I will finish it by Friday and I started last Tuesday so it will have taken me 10 days but I also did some bootcamp and Qvault along the way. I study about 8-10 hours a day. I will restart on Monday and attempt to finish it again in 6 days on top of PAT and QR practice. Might be some long days haha. But I can see the light at the end of the tunnel plus I have a low sgpa and need to kill it. If I only needed a 19 or 20 I'd take it next week.

 

[syeh3]

Yeah I need around 20 also 🙁 I think my sgpa is low too

Right now I'm going thru a book I just got called DAT BOOSTER~ they have colorful explanations lol

 

[shyfox9p]

The pace picks up. I'm also taking about 2-3 to do the QR and review my mistakes. Don't rush it though. Just learn and understand.
