Keep an eye on the website for more info about DAT study groups. The meetings will be 1-1.5 hours long. For the first half of the meeting, we will review some of the important & difficult topics from Chem (GChem & OChem) and Bio. And then the other half will be dedicated to practicing DAT questions related to that topic and then solving some of the PAT.
To order a discounted Crack the PAT or to find study materials contact Sajal Swaroop.
Members will have a chance to go to schools and family shelters to give children hygiene presentations. This will be a really fun service opportunity, so if you want to get involved, be sure to email Wenhui Sun.
