Do you guys know if there have been any kind of discrepancies or really bad questions on the DAT? I know it's a standardized test so probably not likely but there is a slight chance maybe, like the SAT's, once in a while an error is reported. My concern is that science is changing we are discovering new things everyday, I guess only biology would be if any affected the most. what do you guys know or think?
 
Well usually when things change, such as recently they changed the number of collagen families from 13 to 20, you could still get the right answer as long as both were not listed.

So if you know the "new" stuff then you probably know the old answer and are still in good shape
 
They usually figure out if they have made a mistake early in the year when the new version of the DAT of that year is released. They will accomadate and fix the test early in the year.
