I have 1 week until my OAT. I have a good basis for everything and I feel pretty good about taking it. I'm thinking of buying the OAT Achiever to practice with the calculator but was going to get your thoughts. Do you think it'll destroy my confidence?

Opted/Kaplan #1/Kaplan #2/ADA/Diagnostic
BIO 360/310/320/320/360
CHEM 320/300/280/340/300
ORGO 330/310/320/320/330
RC 310/280/300/(didn't take)/300
PHYS 310/300/(didn't take)/(didn't take)
QR 300/(didn't take)/(didn't take)/340/340

RC- (I didn't take the one on opted or ADA because it's only one passage long)
QR- (I plan to take a few more of these, however, I've worked through 6 tests in Math Destroyer).

Thoughts? I feel stupid by studying for Bio since a lot of time can be devoted to and the chance of having something asked is minimal. I have started reading all of the Kaplan book for bio and figure I'll read through 30 pages a day and that's it. As for chem and physics, I'm gonna go back and re-watch chads videos. Organic is the one subject that I feel the most confident about. QR, I'm going to work back through the tests in math destroyer (about one per day, until test day). Any other thoughts or suggestions.

your scores look pretty good.
what i can tell you is that the bio section was really random.
I rmbr there was a lot of plant based questions in mine, where kaplan's tests/readings did not focus on them at all.

btw.. you get a calculator for the QR section now? WOW.

im sure you'll do fine =)
good luck!

OAT Achiever Test #2

Bio 290
GC 280
OC 320

I'm not too depressed with these scores since I've heard that the 2nd and 3rd Achiever tests are WAAAY hard 🙂

Good luck with your test! From your first post it looks like you'll be writing super soon. Your OC score looks pretty good from the achiever tests... i suck at OC =/ My OAT is feb 24th... so late! Hopefully all your hard work will pay off.

Too bad I didn't catch you sooner to tell you not to bother buying Achiever, haha. I think I used the calculator 1 or 2 times. Your scores look great. The real deal was MUCH easier than the OAT Achiever....just relax, you're all set.

I'm EXTREMELY worried about RC though! I am pretty confident that i'll score 300+ in all sections, but RC is scaring the **** out of me!

It's not that bad. Do the practice tests - even the ones with just one passage - give yourself 16 minutes or whatever and practice whatever method you're going to use.
