Hey SDN,

Last weekend, I took TopScore test 1 and got the following

BS: 16
GC: 17
OC: 15
QR: 16
RC: 19
PAT: 19
TS: 16
AA: 17

After a week of studying I improved somewhat

BS: 18
GC: 16
OC: 17
QR: 20
RC: 21
PAT: 20
TS: 17
AA: 18

My test day is within a week and I wanted to know if anybody did bad on TopScore but ended up doing much better on the actual DATs?

I heard TopScore is more representative of what you'll actually score on the DATs compared to Achiever. And if I'll score what I did on TopScore then I'll cry 🙁

Could anyone compare each section of topscore vs. real DATs for me?
(IE. GC was much easier on real DATs than on Topscore)

I am also open for suggestions on how to improve my scores!

If you read the recent breakdowns, everybody is saying how much easier all of the sciences were (albeit biology) on the real DAT than any practice exam

I've read them but I just assume that since they are getting 22+ scores they have to be super awesome in the first place.

For biology..it seems like once I study certain phyla it just so happens I get one that I didn't read up on. 😡
I wish they'd give more questions like hormones, organ systems etc. instead of taxonomy, ecology, plant questions. Lol

hey i was scoring 17's in topscore in the sciences and got 19's in every section on the real test. The only thing with topscore is i was scoring like 22 and 23 on Qr RC and PAT and got a 19 on the real test. Dont worry for scinces its ok!!
