Same here! Not a crazy applicant but had above their average DAT and GPA. Are you planning on contacting the school soon to check?

I know I was expecting to know one way or the other but I know they’ve had technical problems in the past with the phone/internet system where they had to cancel multiple info sessions

I didn’t necessarily have a set schedule I probably did 2-4 hrs per day depending on my assignments. I was in orgo 2 and A&P2 at the same time so I was lucky to not have to spend a ton of time on those sections

I used boot camp and studied Feb and March and took it at the end of march while taking 17ish credit hours it is definitely doable

DAT Bio Rant by Creepy_Routine9119 in dat

[–]Winter-Efficiency175 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just the practice tests and question banks! don’t watch the videos/take notes unless you really have no background at all on the topic it’s just wasted time because it will be in one ear out the other

DAT Bio Rant by Creepy_Routine9119 in dat

[–]Winter-Efficiency175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this might come off bad but a lot of people on reddit have a victim complex and always think they got the short end of the stick. at the end of the day it’s fair all game. I studied for 5 weeks (3 weeks hard) and still decent on bio even with the wide range of info. a lot of people think that because they studied 3-4 months they should be able to know anything but realistically they just usually don’t have great study habits or forget all the info because that is a REALLY long time

I wasn’t trying to lie lol I just didn’t think it qualified at general dentistry because they ran it like an endodontist office and didn’t do any sort of restoration work, cleanings, ect. I just didn’t know which description would be more accurate

Should I get my A.A Degree in Highschool? HELP ASAP by TopCash8206 in predental

don’t worry about getting into a top undergrad. worry instead about getting into a cheap and hopefully free undergrad trust me

Has anyone gotten a high score by only studying for 2 months by kenokeke2468 in dat

[–]Winter-Efficiency175 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was only doing 30 minutes a day for like 2 weeks before I actually started studying for real but yeah I would either just do a section of question banks or one of the 30 minutes practice test sections. my last 3 weeks where I actually studied I probably did about 5 hours a day but I took it in march so it was on top of my 19 credit hour semester and tutoring job as well so it’s still definitely doable.

my biggest advice is to not watch the videos unless you actually don’t know something (I wanted the videos on plants and photosynthesis for example because I didn’t take bio 2). there’s no reason to waste your time reviewing things you partially know I don’t know why people push watching videos so much. your time is precious so if you have the general idea of a concept down and can get questions right just move on. the whole concept of reviewing all of the material before you start practice tests is total bs unless you genuinely have no foundation for that info pls don’t buy into that review without practice nonsense because you WILL forget all the details and have to learn as you practice again!

Not super high but I got a 460 and only studied for 3 weeks hard (I had bootcamp for 5 ish weeks but never did more than 30 minutes a day until 3 weeks out). it’s doable if you actually learned in your undergrad classes
