Planning to take the test in 2016

[gamesdf]

I know that it takes only a few months to study for this exam, but I want to start early since I am working full-time. Also, I want to start on RC early because English is not my first language..

So far, I am planning to use these materials to study:

kaplan BB

PAT: DAT bootcamp + CRACK DAT PAT

Reading : DAT bootcamp

Bio: Cliffs AP bio + DAT bootcamp

GC and OC: chads videos + DAT bootcamp

DAT destroyer + math destroyer for practice

As I mentioned in other post, I took MCAT a few months ago and crushed science sections (12+ on both PS and BS). I got into several med schools but I decided to go for dentistry after shadowing a few dentists.. How long do you think it will take me to study for DAT? I will probably be able to study only for 2-3 hrs a day due to work.. maybe 5~6 hours on weekend though..

Also, if I buy 2015 editions, do you guys think they are good enough for 2016 DAT? I heard that they will make some changes to QR and bio in 2016..


Thank you so much in advance.

Ok so for RC, since it is not your first language, I recommend ACHIEVER.
Their texts are so hard, that if you learn how to answer their questions, you will be set for the real thing, whch is easier

I wouldn't bother with Kaplan's book, honestly.

Do you think achiever, datgenius, datqvault, bootcamp, and crack DAT reading are enough for RC for the next 5~6 months?

That's a long time to study.
But I understand you concern.

I would honestly use like SAT material in your situation and save bootcamp and qvault etc until like a month or two before as a gauge of where you are at.

Thanks for the advice. I honestly need only a few weeks for science sections but I believe I need a long pd of time to prepare for RC..

How long does it usually take to finish qvault and bootcamp RC?

If I want to use all those materials for RC, when should I start using them?

Bootcamp only has 5 test and qvault 10.
Once you do it once you kind of know it and it's hard to get a redo on them since you've been exposed.

You have 3 month subscriptions on them.
