Reading comprehension

[parham3]

How does the reading comprehension page look like?

Every time you press next on the question does the passage go to the beginning?

For me, the first page had a full screen of the reading, then when you click next to go to the first problem, the screen split so the problem was on the top half, and the reading on the bottom half, with each section scrolling separately. The reading did reset to the top every time you go to the next problem though.

How many paragraphs were in each passage? Thanks in advance!

I took the DAT last week. First two passages were 13 paragraphs, third was about 8 or 9

How many paragraphs were in each passage? Thanks in advance!

First passage: 11 paragraphs
Second passage: 8 paragraphs
Third: 17 paragraphs...

But they were all pretty interesting so I guess it wasn't too bad.

Mine were about Lyme disease, komodo dragons, and X-ray/PET/MRI developments

The readings are so random. that was the first time I heard, Lyme disease, komodo dragons, and X-rays all in the same sentence...

 

[parham3]

Yea on the Canadian DAT mine were about Mercury, Dna replication and something else

I got a komodo dragon article as well, though I took it in Feburary

Which articles did you have?

 

[parham3]

for the PAT section, did you have time to draw punnet squares before the start?

 

[clutchfans]

Which articles did you have?

can't remeber the other two specifically but it was about animals as well I believe.

I hope you're talking about the grids for the hole punching section? But I actually drew the grids, and table for cube counting during the 15 minute tutorial before the test starts and set that board aside. I ended up with extra time at the end of the science section so I swapped out the board I used for calculations too so I had a fresh board just in case.

They didn't let me write during the tutorial at my test center... I finished reviewing my sciences with like 10 minutes left, and then made sure to switch out my boards before I clicked "Finish."
