Your time and thoughts are greatly appreciated! I will post results tomorrow. Anyone have any good strategies for RC, PAT? Thanks!!
 
Put the books aside, relax, and try to get some rest!
Best of luck to you!👍
 
Just get some sleep and remember to breathe! Also, if you don't know a question just skip over it and keep going! You don't want to get hung up and literally waste away time when you could be answering questions that you know. Good luck! 😀
 
For PAT, I remember not focusing at all during it. Those 10 CDP tests really made me comfortable in it. I still did well. It was a great time to recuperate from the sciences.

Hey guys!

Thanks for all your support! I got two 18's! I am very satisfied as I am only a sophomore...I have not yet taken Biochemistry, Immunology, or Genetics so my Biology hurt a little...I only started studying two weeks ago 8hrs/day and studied a Blue Kaplan Book....I know almost everything about developmental bio. and the hormones as possible! And i only got like 2 questions pertaining to them...lol oh well...I had never seen a PAT question besides the ones on the ADA sample test, so this was totally new to me..

What would I do if I retook this? - BUY PRACTICE TESTS (ESP. PAT)! I do not even think Kaplan study material is necessary...I mean I am double majoring in Biology/Business and have a 4.0...So if you did what you were supposed to for class and actually learned the material, you should not have a problem...

I totally rocked the RC and went into it never doing a practice...

I was fortunate and thank the Lord!! QR - had a few about areas of crazy objects....I don't ever care to learn how to do them...lol...

And I didnt study ANY thing about plants..and luckily only had one question...

Have a question? SHOOT!
 
so what was the point of taking this exam as a sophomore? and if you only spent 2 weeks studying for it?
 
Hi there,

I took the DAT early because I am going to go to Latin America next summer to do a Dentistry Internship at an Oral Surgeon's Office…

I am in a program where I have already been accepted into Dental School upon meeting all requirements…and Thankfully, I just met this one !!

What program is it? Is it in the states?
