Do you think DAT Acheiver PAT compared to the real DAT PAT was (1) easier, (2) at the same level of difficulty or (3) harder? Comments appreciated!

as a whole achiever is obviously harder... if u want to make a more useful poll u should compare individual sections to both achiever and crack not as a whole b/c thats not very useful....not to be mean but stop making polls and start off with crack and then move to achiever as posted in the previous poll u made. every section and every test is different, on avg acheiver is harder as posted in about every break down thread. start off with pat crack then move to achiever once u start hitting 22/23, then when u go back to crack u'll notice ur score go up.

Right, that's what this poll is - comparing the PERCEPTUAL ABILITY TEST (PAT) I don't think I made it clear enough!

This has been compared multiple times by various breakdowns. Why not just read those?
 
I voted for harder, not significantly harder, but still a little more challenging.... Its the best PAT practice by far.
 
It is harder than the real thing but honestly if you want a great grade on the PAT you should definitely use it..

I was averaging 24+ on my last 5 cdp tests and 23 through all 10 and made a 21 on the real thing. Did the achiever PAT once untimed and got a 20..

You should use achiever Keyholes\TFE for practice and CDP is good to go with angles\hole punching\ and pattern folding

Although keyholes\tfe on achiever are a little harder they will definitely help. I never used the line counting method for TFE but for those who do, I would advise to stop using it and learn to visualize it.
 
DAT achiever for the PAT ranges from spot on to really hard. Crack DAT PAT is a better representation of the real DAT
I agree with Dgeorg6 :)
 
bump

BTW: not just trying to annoyingly bump... hoping to get a larger sample size now with more people who have taken the DAT since September for a better representation!

thanks for everyone who have left very useful comments for future DAT takers :)
