Should I hold off my DAT?

[ChewyDrop]

I am going to be a senior this upcoming fall semester and this is my first DAT exam. I've been studying for a little over a month now. My 5 week summer physics II class starts tomorrow. I am worried that this summer class is going to eat up a lot of my studying time. I was thinking about taking the DAT during winter break (of course i'll still be studying this summer). What should I do? Any advice?

Take a practice exam and plan accordingly

Don't take the DAT until you are confident in your ability to do well. You know your study habits best. If that summer class is going to interfere with your score, hold it off until winter break.

haven't gone through all the math destroyer and DAT destroyer booklet, but I've read all of Cliff's bio and watched all of chad's video. Should I just take a practice test anyways?

Regardless if I do bad and take it again during the summer, I'm still going to have a gap year right?

If you are applying the summer after graduation, you will have a gap year.

You don't want to take the DAT more than once. Retaking it is a pain.
