The Dental Admission Test (DAT) is all about science and math. Since undoubtedly you have taken myriad science and mathematics courses throughout your college career, you should be up-to-date on the material that will be covered on the DAT. You will already have acquired the appropriate textbooks and review books for the subjects.

The DAT also includes the Reading Comprehension Test and the Perceptual Ability Test (PAT). There are six sections to the PAT, which require visual and mental dexterity. The PAT measures your ability to work with two- and three-dimensional objects, and be able to manipulate them visually and analyze them in different formats. The six sections are aperture passing, orthographic projection, angle discrimination, paper folding, cubes, and form development.

  • Genetics: molecular genetics, human genetics, classical genetics, chromosomal genetics, and genetic technology

  • Evolution, Ecology, and Behavior: natural selection, population, genetics/speciation, cladistics, population and community ecology, ecosystems, and animal behavior (including social behavior)

General Chemistry

  • Stoichiometry and General Concepts: percent composition, empirical formulae, balancing equations, moles and molecular formulas, molar mass, density, and calculations from balanced equations

  • Gases: kinetic molecular theory of gases, Dalton's, Boyle's, Charles', and ideal gas laws
