Hey guys,
Just took the DAT today and thought I'd share my insight and answer any questions to help others out.

PAT 22
Bio 20
GC 23
OC 26
RC 21
QR 22
TS 22
AA 22

First of all, DAT Bootcamp saved my life. This is the most representative program I found and would honestly not waste money on anything else (besides maybe Chad's videos). Bootcamp seemed to be harder than everything besides biology and PAT, which I thought were identical to Bootcamp. For organic chem, I spent a majority of the time memorizing the reactions on Chad's and essentially skipped everything else (I should mention, however, that I did pretty well in both organics about a year ago, so that definitely helped). For GC, I went through Chad's videos once and took thorough notes. After that, I took as many GC practice tests on Bootcamp as I could and learned from Mike's videos for the problems I got wrong. I don't have much advice for QR and RC besides to practice. For PAT, I started with CrackDAT PAT which gave me a good base, but Bootcamp is much more representative. The angle ranking and keyholes were equally as hard if not harder on the real DAT.

Feel free to reach out with any questions; I know it sucks to be on the other side. Good luck!
 
@ OP, I tried to PM you but it says I can’t start a conversation with you!

Tried on both mobile and computer!

I was averaging 19-20 for bio, 19-21 for GC, 22-24 for OC, 22 on PAT, 19 for RC, 20 for QR, and 20 AA.
 
I am averaging 20 on Bio, 22 on GC, 24 on OC, 18 on RC, 20 PAT, and 20 QC. Good to see someone who has a similar range doing well. I am just aiming for 20 AA/TS. Hope I will do well. Congratulations tho.
