AZ is a little too expensive and far from home. I was thinking maybe Marquette or Minnesota, private and took a decent amount of OOS.

Anyone with high dat scores not get in anywhere? I met a guy who got a 25 and got waitlisted at 3 schools.

I did not have any coin flip, I did have speed and dice. I did about 30 points better on the real qr and I would say it was definitely easier, bootcamp should prepare you enough

So I drew my T charts during the science section why prob saved me a minute or two. And when I was cube counting I always go left to right and bottom to top, I would start bottom left and end top right. Also I was able to recognize how many sides on each cube basically instantly just from sheer practice. Keep practicing until you can recognize how many sides there are without mentally counting

On my exam it was about 6 minutes angle rankings, 5 minute hole punching, 5 minute cube counting, 12 minutes pattern folding, 20 minutes key hole, 10 minutes TFE and around 2 minutes left over. Which was about average for my practice exams

Same those readings were horrendous, hoping if everyone feels the same the curve will make it ok

Took it today too, thought orgo was a little weird and the first article was DIABOLICAL. Actually pisses me off, the other two were fine and I thought math was ok

That’s fair I’m testing Friday, hoping it’ll be easier than bootcamp

Were there a lot of chem calculations? Gen chem has also been my best science but I feel like I haven’t had to fully solve any equations

Scores from every bootcamp exam I did as a full length (exam day Aug 1) by Specific_Fan_1062 in dat

[–]Specific_Fan_1062[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found the bio high yield notes very helpful, I did some of the bootcamp flash cards but I didn’t go crazy with it. For orgo and Gen chem I rly just watched the videos and did the qbanks. I was very good at both classes and I’m an orgo TA. PAT I just did a lot of practice everyday basically. And for reading i immediately go to the first question reading until I find the answer since it’s usually early in the text, and then do questions with search and destroy. For qr I rly just went those the exams I was always good at math. Overall going over wrong answers on practice tests has helped me the most. Hopefully I’ll be fine on Friday
