I am planning on taking the DAT this feb. I have gone through kaplan and cliffs ap bio(loved it) For those of you who are studying for the DAT, and for those of you who have already taken it.

Does Kaplan BB Bio have some extra bio information that we do not need to know?
ie. the ear canal system, the eye anatomy, ect..

Also for those of you who have already taken a DAT could you list a couple of examples of really random way out there questions or topics that you came across?

Thanks!!

eye and ear are the random stuff.. you could grab a dat destroyer and see many random Qs
 
I actually had a picture come up and the question was "Where would you find this type of cell." Honestly though, the Kaplan book is good for review but I think that if I was not a biology the biology section would of been way harder. The only source I used was the Kaplan. There was not as much physiology as I was expecting. Going by what I have read on here everybody likes cliffs over kaplan for biology. Also, the hole punching and angles are super easy in the kaplan book compared to the actual thing. Sorry for being so scattered.
 
i think kaplan is too specific in some places and way to vague in others. 2 questions that stood out to me as random were : if you were given an invertebrate marine creature to study, how would it most likely excrete nitrogenous waste

and : In the ocean, how are nutrients and oxygen spread out. Also, I was dissapointed that I wasnt asked any taxonomy, anything about glucose catabolism, or human anatomy.
