Just wanted to know from those who have taken the DAT😎😎

How many minutes did you spend on each section of the Science.


Biology: ??
Chemistry:??
Organic Chem: ??


thanks guys!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
 
I really dont have any specific times but try to finish bio asap. Try to leave most time for orgo. Thats what I did!
 
90minutes-3 sections...break it up in to 30min each.
id finish bio in 20-25min, then spend more time on gen chem b/c of the calculations, then id have about 25min left for orgo.
just do what works best for u...everyone is different so u need to keep practicing until you feel comfortable. good luck
 
BIO is my bread and butter so I normally get through it (and on the actual DAT) in ~15-20 min.

G. CHEM I always take the most time on due to the calculations and use ~40 min for that section (I was done in 30 though and had 10 min to spare after my o. chem on the actual DAT)

O. CHEM I like to see at least 25 min still left on the timer when I get to this section...

everyone has their strong sections, so I recommend taking some practice tests and see where you stand with time on the Nat. Sciences.
 
In my practice tests, I took the same amount of time for each section. The real deal went by so fast that I don't remember how I partitioned my time on it -- just get into the mentality of attacking 100 questions as quickly as possible and you should be fine.
