Hey everyone,
Im nearing a little over two weeks before my DAT. Days before taking DAT Bootcamps (DBC) practice exams, I made the effort to do a huge review one last time. I have been scoring extremely consistent 19-20's for Bio, 19's with GC, 19-21's with OC, and all three have gotten me a 19AA; I anticipate the last 2/5 exams to be roughly the same, maybe 1 point higher after I review once more. While there is no definitive way of calculating your true score other than taking the DAT itself, (curiously asking), how did your DBC practice exams compare to the actual DAT? I also plan on taking the 2007 and 2009 exams pretty soon- I'd say about a week before my actual test. How do the 2007 & 2009 compare in terms of scoring? Would you say it's pretty representative?
For the most part, I feel pretty confident in terms of the material that I know, however, there is always room for improvement. As the days count down, I've been experiencing a bit moderate case of imposter syndrome, despite all of the progress I've made since the beginning of my studying. Any good tips on how I should review for the exam, that is, how to constantly maintain a "refreshed memory" before the exam? Practice more questions? Review the wrong-old ones? re-study Bio/GC/OC notes? I guess the perfect answer would be to do all three. But I guess I'm really looking for the most effective method.
This was a pretty dense post with a ton of questions, if you've made it this far, I appreciate you haha. Thank you again. All criticism and wisdom is welcome, I definitely just want to do good on the exam and get it over with.
