When Should You Start Studying for the DAT.png

Most students ask the same question:


When should I start studying for the DAT?


The answer depends on your foundation, but in general:


• 3–4 months of consistent study is typical
• Start earlier if your science foundation is weak
• Focus on understanding concepts before timing yourself


One of the biggest mistakes students make is jumping into practice tests too early.


Build your foundation first — it will make everything else easier.
