I am a highschool sophomore and I just took a practice DAT (dental) test just to see how well I did.
Some of the things on the test were absolutely hard and I did not know it had anything to do with dentistry and other things were medium but I should have known them because it seemed to be something of Biology...
I took Biology as a freshman and didn't do soo well, and I'm wondering if during college they are gonna prepare me better for the DAT test or is it things you need to before you enter college. Out the whole 54 paged test I swear it seemed like I only got the example questions right.. Am i barking up the wrong tree if I'm not the greatest with Biology?
Even though i haven't taken chemistry yet, am i prepared for it, since I didn't do that well in BIology?!
I need some expert advice here :)

The DAT has college level sciences in it. If you got a good score as a sophmore in High School then you'd be a genius. Its expected for you not to get a good score right now. The DAT requires that some prerquisite college courses be taken before and even when students take those classes they often have to take a class that teaches them just how to study for the DAT in order to do well.

The DAT has few things that actually have to do with Dentistry. The test is to see how well you do with hard classes and standardized tests. Depending on the college that you attend, some of your teachers will be familiar with the material on the DAT and every once in a while they'll mention that they're going over something in class that is probably on the DAT. But really, the best way to prepare is to take a DAT course all by itself after the prereqs have been taken. A lot of students do it on their own though (with books that explain how and what to study)

Plus, if youin case you get an interview and supply an evidence for why you finished risky, this isn't any super deal. i'm regrettably not confident approximately how the applying approach works yet, yet you will would desire to have the ability to locate in case you call your counseling place of paintings or the dental college admission place of corporation you utilized. call THE DENTAL training ADMISSION place of corporation you utilized to, they're rather priceless. returned, do not back off now.

I go to a Jr.college and I was thinking about doing Pre-Dentistry, they have it set up where you have to take general biology, more biology, some chemistrys, and math. Thats only an associates. But, to answer your question, yes, you will get a lot more school in your science's once you get into college if that is what you major in.
I decided to do Dental Hygiene instead.
