This is a waste of any pre-dental student's time. I didn't read the medical stuff (which is over 2/3 of this book) but I did read the dental material and it was a waste. The information on the DAT is superficial at best and plainly WRONG. It incorrectly states a zillion things like that the DAT is a paper test offered twice a year (uh no?). It also has a profile for each school but the information that it provides on each one is quite variable. Some have complete information that is really useful and others have nothing at all 'data not available' and others dont' list relevant information to help you out. The sample DAT questions are good but you're not buying this book for the DAT. They obviously just didn't take the time to update the book from previous editions and it is questionable if any of the information about dentistry trends, etc is even relevant anymore.

This book is well written and offered very comprehensive information. It is worth buying for any person considering going to medical school.

This book has bunch of errors and incomplete informations. There are medical schools that exist for more than 30 years but the author didn't put it in, like the one in Florida, there are 4 schools but he only noted 3. He didn't do thorough research. The guy just wants $ from college students. Don't ever buy this book. This book needs lots of updates.
