So Achiever has done a good job at reducing my confidence in the beginning, but I seem to be improving the Gchem and Ochem significantly, but my Bios are consistently around 16-17.

Here are my TS Scores from Achiever.

Bio / GC / OC
TEST 1 - 17 / 14 / 16
TEST 2 - 16 / 19 / 17
TEST 3 - 16 / 18 / 21

I'm not sure, I've gone through Cliff's AP 1.5x, 50% done with Cliff's AP flashcards, gone through Destroyer bio 2x, and skimmed some Schaums. I'm wondering if I should hit up my Campbells Bio Text.

I've only got 6 days to boost this score. Is Achiever accurate with Bio? I've been getting 20+ on my topscore bios.

Any feedback is SUPER APPRECIATED! =]

if you're top scores are 20+ then you shouldn't sweat it. Really, I got 16-18 range on the achiever tests form bio and 21 on the real thing.

I think all that achiever is doing is making people work hard and motivate to work some more.. 😎 .. which is a good thing; but don't let the achiever scores get to you at the end. Treat it as a learning experience rather than an attack on your confidence or knowledge.

topscore is MUCH more representative of the real DAT. Achiver is just good to challenge yourself and for exposure to more questions. The more q's you do the better off you will be

Dont sweat it.

If you are getting 20s in topscore bio you're fine.

Just make sure you learn what you got wrong, that way if you see it again, you will get it right. Thats really the point of the practice exams.

Yeah, I wouldn't be to worried. I just the test this last Sat. Believe me you will be frekin out and then you get into the testing center and things go great. Try to get into an attitude that you are going to smoke the test and you will be fine.

As long as you brush up on the main points and have a few details you are in great shape.

Things to have down:
How things get energy: Ex. Krebs, light cyle, ect....
General Genetics
a little bit of anatomy
happy testing!

Take your 15 break and bring a gaterade or something...

like the other posters, don't sweat it...

we had similar bio scores for achiever too, and my my top score bio scores were 21, 18, 18 which isnt thattttttttt good either, but i managed to get 23 on the real thing. good luck!

Much appreciated friends. I feel so much better now. 😀

They don't ask too many detailed questions. As long as you hit all the general ideas, I think you should be fine. I studied too much detailed info and totally ignored general info. That was my biggest mistake. Good luck.
