DAT^® Prep, Live Online

After this session you will be able to describe the sections of the DAT and their scoring systems; formulate a personal study calendar that includes all the necessary actions from now until Test Day; and recall the steps of Kaplan's question, answer choice, and CBT strategies. You will also be able to recall Kaplan's strategies for reading strategically and classifying reading comprehension question types.

After this session you will be able to differentiate between the taxonomy kingdoms; describe the parts of a cell, including their origins and functions; explain the processes of replication, transcription, and translation; calculate individual and population genetics; and describe relationships among different organisms and environments.

After this session you will be able to recall the basic format of each PAT subsection and apply specific Kaplan strategies to Top-Front-End, Keyhole, and Pattern Folding questions.

After this session you will be able to identify opportunities to apply Traditional Math, Picking Numbers, Backsolving, Educated Guessing, and Estimation to math problems; calculate numerical problems involving fractions, decimals, exponents, and absolute values; calculate algebra problems using equations and inequalities; and analyze the properties of graphs and figures.

After this session you will be able to differentiate between the different types of intramolecular and intermolecular bonds; predict properties based on those bonds and the periodic table; calculate stoichiometric values and balanced chemical equations; calculate energies based on thermodynamics; calculate properties of systems at equilibrium; and determine chemical rate laws.

After this session you will be able to assign names to molecules; differentiate among different types of isomers; identify types of substitution, elimination, and addition reactions; and describe the properties of those reactions.

After this session you will be able to recall the structures and functions of the digestive, circulatory, respiratory, musculoskeletal, nervous, endocrine, urinary, integumentary, immunological, and reproductive systems; describe the steps of mitosis and meiosis; and describe the stages of embryonic development.

After this session you will be able to finish the PAT subsections within the appropriate amounts of time and while using the Kaplan strategies for each subsection.

After this session you will be able to calculate conversions; calculate averages, variance, and standard deviation; calculate probabilities; analyze geometric shapes; and calculate trigonometric relationships.

After this session you will be able to calculate the energy involved in changing temperature and phase of matter; calculate the properties of gases using the ideal gas law; calculate the general and colligative properties of solutions; calculate pH and dissociation constant values for acids and bases; determine oxidizing and reducing numbers; calculate the energies associated with electrochemical cells; and determine the products of radioactive decay.

After this session you will be able to determine aromaticity; describe the properties of and predict the products of reactions involving aromatics, alcohols, ethers, carbonyls, and carboyxlic acid derivatives; identify specific named chemical reactions; determine the relative strengths of acids and bases; interpret results from IR and NMR spectroscopy; and evaluate the separation methods of extraction and distillation.

After this session you will be able to apply the strategies you have already learned to any question on your exam. You will also be able to plan your study calendar appropriately so you know what to do from now until Test Day.
