What does the General Academic Module in the dMAT actually contain, and how should I prepare for it?
→It presents a typical academic problem, sometimes with a passage, data table, or figure, then single-choice questions testing whether you can extract and apply information. Every question includes the input needed, so you are not recalling coursework. Prepare by practising with sample passages and case-style questions, not old notes.
