Here is my situation. I scheduled my DAT test back in Feb. of this year and now it is coming up next week. I don't feel prepared, but I was going to take it just to see what it is like, find my weaknesses, see if I am studying correctly, etc....I'm not sure if I should take it next week or put it off till Oct. this year. I would still have time to get scores in....but should I give myself two chances between now and when the scores are due or take the three months (not going to be enrolled as a full-time student) and study like a fool???
