"Your test prep begins when you take courses that cover topics assessed in the admissions tests." Petros Minasi and Jessica Peterson from Kaplan Test Prep walk us through how the DAT and MCAT create questions using the "languages from your science courses."
While the advice to prepare early and being ready for your test are covered, we discuss larger issues like building your stamina for your test and establishing good habits to support your preparation (and the marathon of your application!).
