Hi guys! My DAT is a week away and I was wondering what you guys were getting on your topscores?
I just took my first one (only TS) and got very discouraging scores.. 🙁 Is it just me? And for those who have already taken the real DAT, did you guys score 18+ from the first one? And similar for the rest of the two exams? I'm extremely worried cause I thought I'd do better than this!! Let me know how/what you guys did! Thanks.

I am in the same boat - DAT next week and I took my first Topscore practice exam today. Not as good as I would like. Hopefully one week and 2 more TS tests will do. I have 1 more Achiever to take as well... Good luck!

The real test is different than TopScore - definitely easier in the sciences imo. I jumped up several points from my practice test so don't stress too much!

It really depends. I have seen people with 18s in topscore and 22+ on the real DAT, but that is because they took topscore a long time before they finished studying or are in progress of.


Although generally it seems that people get +1/+2 on real DAT compared to topscore for those who take it somewhat close to when they have completed studying.

Is it possible to download the software or do I have to purchase the cd-rom?

Thanks
