My OAT is in 2 days, and i've been reviewing everything. Any tips for the test? I'm nervous about Physics and Orgo, so I've been focusing more on that.

Relax. At this point you know what you know. Go in confident!!! Anything less and it's like the test can sense your weakness lol🙂 grab it and growl!! Grrr.

Congrats. Any tips you can give the rest of us?? I take mine at the end of July and I already have test anxiety, lol.
How long did you study and how much time did you put in each day??
Thanks xx

I recently took mine. I would say if you have prepared adequately you have nothing to worry about. One tip I would give is to go through the 15 minute instructions screen it will help ease your nerves

Thanks! I studied on and off spring semester, but went hardcore after finals were done, giving me two full months. I studied pretty much all day, from when I woke up till when I slept. Anxiety will def get to you as it gets closer, because I was anxious up till when I started the tutorial. Just get everything down and have confidence, you'll end up doing better than you think you did.

That's a good amount of time to prepare.. what would you recommend for those of us that only have a month? I'm a little discouraged at the moment, but it's the best I can do. :\ I'd love more time..

You can do it in a month I think as long as you're not too rusty on the material. I've read about people doing well by studying only 2 weeks out, but consider them outliers. If you have a month I would allocate a lot of time towards a lot of full practice tests mimicking testing conditions. Follow practice tests up with a review the questions you got right and wrong, and understand why one answer is correct over the others. That's my advice! But then again I don't know your particular situation.

If you have a month, figure out your weaknesses and focus more on that. chad's videos and notes every few days. do destroyer problems and do practice exams.
