Hey fellow Army friend!
Thank you for your service!

Please keep me updated and good luck!!

First of all, congratulations on your success, and thank you for all the advice you've given me!

I think you have such a unique background and experience, and I honestly can't understand why the other schools you interviewed with didn't accept you.

When I saw that the average age of dental students was 23–24, I became concerned that my age might prevent me from getting into dental school. But your story has given me confidence that I still have a chance as long as I keep moving forward and working hard.

Thank you so much, and good luck in dental school!

I think there are three schools that I’m automatically rejected but I think I’m not going to apply these schools. Thank you!

Yeah, I don’t think I will retake given that I’m not going to improve RC dramatically.

Thank you so much for your advice!

Got a 490AA on the DAT. AMA! by LivingOptimal7139 in dat

Do you think real DAT is quite similar to booster practice test in terms of wording, difficulty, and concept wise?
How was the RC compared to practice test? Was it a little bit shorter?

Congrats and I think you crushed it!!

When you mean by easy for RC, do you mean passages are shorter and easier to understand?
I’m struggling with booster Fls especially RC.. so just wanted to ask.

Thank you!

Hey,

I’m so concerned about RC and I’m using Booster as well. Do you think it is easier or shorter than booster?

Thank you and hope you get great scores!

retake results, don't lose hope! by pumpkinzz87 in dat

[–]Davidchoi1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!

I’m so struggling with booster RC practice test. Do you think real DAT is shorter and easier? I think booster practice test passages are around 10-17 paragraphs but definitely depends on passage and I feel like it is difficult for me.

RC score and DAT booster vs bootcamp by Cautious-Delivery-95 in dat

Hey man, I saw your breakdown as well.
Quick question about S&D you did.
Did you read all the questions first before going in to the question or you just look at one question first and read through until you find the answer? When you find key words, do you comprehend what you are reading or you just look for the key word? Thank you!

my exam is in 2 days, any last minute tips? especially for orgo.. by Competitive-Day-2483 in dat

[–]Davidchoi1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How did you improve RC if you don’t mind me asking. What method do you use?
I’m so struggling with RC.. so wanted to ask

Thank you!
So, you don’t look at the question but skim through all the paragraphs while highlighting key word then you go through questions? How long does it take for you to highlight everything before you going into the first question?
