Hi!

I'm signed up to take my DATs this Thursday...and I'm not sure if I'm ready, based on my scores! 🙁 I don't have a particularly high GPA, so I want to get an AA of 20 or higher to make up for it.

But in all of my qVault exams, I have been getting an average of 19 on the Bio, 19.5 on Gen Chem, and 20 on OChem, and while I know people say that qVault is slightly harder for the sciences, I can't help but feel like maybe I should wait until I feel more ready to take the exam!

What are your guys' thoughts? Any input would be greatly appreciated, especially from those of you who have already finished your DATs - did you guys have similar feelings and just decide to continue with the exam?

Thank you!! :laugh:
 
I know I am going to have to postpone mine. I started looking at the dates, and if I take it as scheduled, I wouldn't get to go through all of the Q-vault quizzes. My luck, I would take one q-vault quiz after the DAT and see questions that I could have gotten right! That's just my thought on the matter though.
If you go through q-vault once already and have reviewed all the concepts you were having trouble with, I'd say take them again (at least the areas you struggled with). Just to be sure you know the concepts (be careful though, because memorizing the question and knowing the concept behind it is a fine line).
 
Hm so you suggest just postponing? Or trying out the qVault (I have around 4 left, and I planned on doing 1 per day) and seeing within two days of my exam?

Gah. I haven't even gone through the entire Destroyer yet! Spent too much time with Chad's videos 🙁
