Hi, im pondering whether or not to go into dentistry and i have some questions about the DAT. I've already taken the MCAT, but im having doubts about medicine and might be back to pre-dentistry (dentistry is what i had in mind anyway back in high school and my first yr or two of college):


1. What are the best DAT practice tests? Does the ADA give official practice tests like the AMCA has with their 10 practice MCATs?


2. Are DAT scores and practice scores consistent? By consistent, i mean if you took the test 10 times in the next week, would you get basically the same score every time? ...Unlike my MCAT peers, I would have actually liked it if the current MCAT contained 70 questions each section like it used to a decade or two ago. The more questions there are, the less "fluky" the test can be.
