I recommend DATCrusher to any student interested in writing the DAT, as I think it is truly the best resource to prepare any student for the cDAT.
When preparing to write the Canadian DAT, I utilized only the resources provided with DATCrusher, and I am forever grateful for this decision. From the detailed Feralis biology notes, to the variety of PAT practice problems, I was able to deeply grasp concepts within the 8-week study schedule provided. Coming from a rural secondary education, I was worried my background in biology and chemistry would make me behind in some of the more challenging concepts, like electrochemistry or evolutionary biology. Instead, DATCrusher provided thorough notes to prepare any learner with minimal background in the subjects to become an expert in content. Although I worked part-time while studying, I was able to fit in each day of the schedule, preparing me to write my DAT with confidence after two short months.
The best part about DATCrusher is how well it reflects the true testing experience. The minute I began my test, I felt as though I was completing a Crusher practice test, which eased any nerves I previously felt. The addition of the lag time and the accuracy of the practice problems allows learners to understand high-yield content and the style of the questions on the real test, setting them up for success.
The section I had been most nervous about before I began my studies was the PAT section, but after using Crusher’s tips for each section, my confidence grew tremendously. The tips provided and the variety of strategies utilized accommodates many different learning styles, which allowed me to figure out which strategy worked best for me. I went from scoring 18-20 on practice tests and running out of time, to scoring 23 on the real test with time to spare! After my experience, I continue to recommend Crusher to any student interested in writing the DAT, as I think it is truly the best resource to prepare any student for the cDAT.
