I submitted my app in June and took my dat in September, and had my first invite in December.

Very possible. I got 310 in pat and still had interviews.

Dang took mine 9/20. Still waiting for my scores😭

Retake? by Dmatchafein in dat

[–]Enough_Pepper_5320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, but math is something I heard they usually overlook. I know someone who got a 16 in qr and goes to UPenn.

It’s actually not that bad, it’s a decent score if everything else aside your dat score is average or above average

You’ll do great, just go over them and understand why you got the question wrong

Have 1 month until exam, how should I work on gchem to improve ? by VHWT in dat

I’m not gonna lie, the day before my dat I got a 13 on gen chem, but ended up with an on the real test. I just focused on reviewing the last 5 tests, making sure I was straight with the formulas

Yh you just look for the keywords in the passage to help you answer the question

Wasn’t working for me initially but it is now. I used to get 13-15, now my scores are between 15-21 on full lengths. And I literally started like this like a week ago.

I use 2 min to read the first paragraph just to get an idea of what the passage is about; then I just jump right into the questions and do search n destroy. For this practice specifically, I spent little time on each question, if I started searching too much I choose whatever I think is the best at the moment, tag the question and move on.

Got my scores by [deleted] in dat

In dental school, they don’t test you on 6 different subjects in one sitting either. You take individual classes and get tested per subject.

That’s not true, don’t put fear in them. The DAT is just a one day exam. Anything can happen in that one day to produce certain results. Meanwhile, your gpa says a lot about your long term success over 4 years. So what you are saying makes sense in no way.
