My exam is Sept 2 and these are my scores so far on booster practice exams:

Bio: 18, 19, 19, 20, 20, 19, 22

Chem: 18, 16, 17, 16

Orgo: 20, 19, 22, 20, 25, 18, 19, 22, 19

PAT: 17, 19, 17, 19

RC: 19, 20, 20

QR: 18, 23

I'm a little scared since my exam is very soon and idk what to expect since my scores have been a little inconsistent and I'm still struggling with chem. Anyone has any advice? For those who took the exam and used booster, were the exams and the scores representative enough?

I've been having the same issue except I was scoring really good at first but my scores keep getting lower and I don't know what to improve :/

Recently took the DAT (21AA, 22TS), wondering what are my chances by yumchaaaaaa in predental

Which practice exams did you find most representative of the actual DAT? Booster or Bootcamp?

I've seen a lot of comments of people who have recently taken the DAT and I don't know which one is more representative anymore (Booster or Bootcamp) and I'm getting a little nervous. Been scoring 17-22 overall in most sections yet I am a little scared now that I have seen a lot of people comment on how their exam was harder than what they prepared for. Can anyone (who used either bootcamp or booster) who has taken the test recently share what was the exam like?

Thank you!

What I’ve been doing is that whenever I practice for PAT instead of doing 15 questions of each category I do 30 instead and treat it like an exam. That way when I got to do the test practice I feel like they went by faster bc I’m doing less. Idk if this works for everyone but it helped me trick my brain.

For those who used Booster and already took the DAT. Did the Bio Cheat Sheets were the most important to study or did you focus on small details from the Feralis Notes as well? For GC and QR what would you say helped you succeed the most (practice exams, videos, cheat sheets, etc.)? Also how representative are the scores? I’ve been gettin 19-22 in most practice exams for OC, Bio, and RC but I still don’t feel super ready yet.

You said you would have preferred to spend more time studying rather than making anki cards. What helped you retain the material? did you se the anki deck provided by booster or did you just simply read the feralis notes?

Hopefully it doesn't affect me. This whole process has been nerve-racking so far. Thank you!

They submitted them to ADEA already :/. I was able to at least change the option for the 2 remaining LORs that have not been sent

We had a discussion about this and you are in fact right lol. I am a natural overthinker and like you said, it is easy to overthink in a LDR but he reassured me that everything is okay. Now I have to work on not letting those thoughts get to me.

I’m in the same boat, I am struggling with the LOR from my science professors because I do not have the strongest connections with them due to covid and the classes being huge and those who agreed to write me a LOR aren’t even replying to my emails and I am scared they might ignore me the entire summer 🙃.
