Hey guys,

So I thought I would start a thread so that people who have already taken the DAT can talk about what it was like to take the exam on the computer. I personally hate looking at a computer screen and wish the test was paper and pencil. But alas, all I can do now is deal with it and listen to the experiences of wiser SDNers 🙂

I'll start off with a question. I took a practice Kaplan full-length test online. When I got to the end of the natural sciences section, I clicked the Review Marked button and it took me to each of the questions I had marked. However, at one point I pressed next and the test just ended. I think I had gotten to the last "Marked" question and it just went right into PAT without me pressing End. I'm wondering, is this a Kaplan fluke? On the real DAT, if you press End before time is up, will the computer ask you once if you're sure you want to end early?

Thanks!!
 
This is a Kaplan mistake...the real DAT will ask u if ur ready to move to the next section if u have time
