Hello,

Taking the DAT tomorrow. I have a half hour trip on public transit so I'm wondering if it's ok to bring a backpack with the kaplan book, ipod and some food as long as the back pack goes into the locker during testing.

Thank you!!!!
 
food will slow you down especially before QR. You might want to bring some energy drink. Also an old cotton shirt that can clean the dry erase board with one wipe (will save you a lot of time.)

plus you need sleep
 
I would advise against reading the Kaplan book on the bus though. Reading in a moving car/bus usually gets me a bit carsick.
 
use that time to relax and get your mind right. said you're bringing the ipod, so just rock out to some of your favorite music or something that mellows you out/pumps you up/etc. or put some funny sitcom episodes on the ipod or something but reading anything right before will prob not help you.
 
for music i wouldnt suggest something with too much with singing or lyrics you know

well for me, i kept listening to my fav song
and while i did my last crack pat, i couldnt get it out of my head and i was trynna count cubes with my my mind singing the verses over and over again
