Guest Neither03 Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 Hi guys, I have a choice to take either anatomy or physiology this summer. I'm going to write the DAT in November. Which course will help me the most for the DAT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest predentalguy Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 i would say physio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sensodyne Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 pretty much neither. you just need your basic bio and gen chem...i suppose physio would help a bit but you're not going to have a huge advantage by taking it. however, you should know that couple universities including u of t and uwo require physiology now. so even if it doesn't help you much for the DAT, you should still take it. anatomy will also help once you're in Dental school.

Guest power2005 Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 I wouldn't say that. Either course would be beneficial. Some of the bio questions on the Feb DAT were really specific...such as a question about endometrium and bones in the arm (anat) and action potentials / smooth muscle (physio). Probably about 5-6 questions of the 40 will come from anat and physio. It is definitely not just general bio...then again, different universities teach different intro stuff in courses....so depending on how well your intro courses prepared you i guess. Anatomy is probably easier for your GPA...mostly memorization, whereas physiology is alot of understanding and integrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest johnwoo19 Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 physiology will definitely help more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TheChosenOneDDS Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 how about neither and enjoy your summer and study for the material relevant to the DAT? courses did not help me, it was studying the direct material that helped.

Guest Bug2ooth Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 i would take physiology. I took physiology in the summer before I took DAT, and it made studying the science section so much easier. It was pretty much review to me. Almost half of the stuff was covered in the physiology course! Thats my opinion!! goodluck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
