Studying too long for the DAT?

I'm not planning to take the DAT till this summer but thinking of getting started now on the studying. Is it too early and will I run out of material/forget the material by the time the test comes around? Now, I have a full-time job, am shadowing, doing community service and also taking a class, so I can only put in about 1-3 hours a day during the weekdays on DAT studying. I don't want to take the DAT before the summer because my class has a final in May and I don't want the two to coincide.

Basically, if someone has a full-time job, is there a length of studying that is too long?

As long as you make sure to go over the material again as you get closer, I don't see how it would be a problem.

It's not too long if you pace it correctly, but you will definitely have to re-review material anyway to keep it fresh in your head after a few months have passed.

When should I start taking practice tests so as not to run out of material too early?

Depends on how often you want to do them, but definitely no sooner than the last 1-2 months.
