Excellent interview, thanks to you both. Congrats on the great score.
That’s amazing Brian! Good luck to the both of you!!
This is very motivating, thank you!
the trauma from preparing and taking the dat is so real. its actually mentally taxing and ive had the same experiences as simran and brian. I wish bootcamp would have a section on tips or practices to stay collected!
I think I might make a video on that because the mental toll it takes on you is half the battle
Attending therapy through the entirety of my undergraduate years helped me so much. Being pre-dental is mentally taxing and really challenges your confidence.
Thanks for posting.
Wow, absolutely incredible!
I know he did amazing!
Way to go Brian!!! Totally my little brother!
He did amazing!
I’m laughing so hard about the plant section 😂 Totally relatable. Super helpful video! Thank you.
Right!? Since when are plants so essential for dentistry LMAO
Hi guys! I watched the first half of this a few weeks back and my DAT is in a few days and I just finished it and it made me feel SO much better. Thank you for posting this!!!
Best of luck! You're going to do great!
How did you do?
How’d it go?
amazing accomplishment
He did absolutely amazing!
Hopefully I get amazing grades, I genuinely enjoy learning and understanding things!
This was an amazing video! I have a question what year in college do people usually take the DAT? I am a freshman in college so am just trying to figure everything out.
I would highly recommend taking it after your sophomore year during the summer. It would save you a lot of stress not having to worry about it on top of applying/classes
I took it after my junior year and having knowledge from my classes reduced the amount I had to straight up learn while studying, but Simran's advice about not having to worry about it on top of applying could be super nice. I know it wore me out to try and apply right after going through the whole process of studying for and taking the DAT, but if you allocate enough time to do it will work for you. :)
Can you link the video you mentioned about the doctor with the yt channel that helps with effective studying!
It's in the description! It's the how to study video by Ali Abdaal
Maybe in the future he can help me regrow a molar.
so would you guys prefer bootcamp over the kaplan study courses???
yes, 100%
I’m a senior and until now I’m hearing all the rage on boot camp. So when I was a junior I got iprep and destroyer because iprep was all I ever heard of
Great study tips for students of any age. Start young! FYI-Brian's parents actually named him BRAIN when he was born, but the county misspelled it as BRIAN on his birth certificate. (Family secrets revealed by Aunt Kristi.😉😉 JK) Love you Brian! Way to go!!! Congratulations!
Seriously after getting a 29 he should change his name to brain😂
I took the DAT and got a 19. Should I retake or no?
Can you show his DAT score report? From my research, no one has ever got more than 28 (and those are handful people)
It's at 1:21
"pretty normal" LOL my exact reaction
HAHA!
Crazy! I'm also from eastern Washington, Tri-cities!
twins! ;)
As a person who will take the DAT in ~2months, I understood if I have a time machine, I should go back in time and be a tutor for gen chem and ochem possibly, keep more of my notes from school (kept some already actually), and also start studying for the DAT earlier to follow Ari's schedule. Now: just buy bootcamp and hope my education is just playing hide and seek. LOL Thanks for the content!
How did you do ?
9:32 the dude didnt even finish his sentnce and simran like screw you... I wanna get the attention
Einstein is out here! Go and pop a bottle bro
Hahaha honestly this was legendary
If Kelvins was a person
Have 2 months of DAT Bootcamp subscription left on my account. Anyone interested, let me know 😊
The interviewer is so annoying. Rude interruptions.
😂
Mormons are super smart!
I shadowed an oral surgeon from Utah that attended BYU for undergrad and went to Harvard for dental school. I don't know for sure if he's Mormon or not, but that guy is very intelligent.
