So I am half way through my review and I did the survey if natural sciences from Achiever Test 1 and here are my scores:

Bio 15
GC 17
OC 15

What do you guys think?

looks like you're on the right track.

are the first few tests in Achiever easier than tests 4,5,7? I think that's what I read somewhere...

what should be my target scores in Achiever?
'thanks

i scored 21TS for the first one then 18 for 2nd and 3rd only have the 3 tests version. My DAT is this Thursday finger crossed

when did you take your forst test? I didn't finish reviewing everything yet (I am half way through reviewing bio and OC). I am a bit worried about GC since I covered that and felt pretty confident until I took this test. I still have time to improve though..

good luck on your exam!

some have said the difficulty jumps steeply after the first three or four.

your target should be just like it is on the DAT, 100% correct. but realistically, most people on here have reported a differential of between 2 and 4 points per section between achiever and the real thing.

as i said, you're on the right track.

I finished cliff's without any reviewing, and made a 19 on biology. Achiever just shows how much detail you can remember, to be honest. I think I remember most biology from my undergraduate years.

I have to study many things from scratch basically (and i never took ecology and they never covered evolution or AP in my undergrad)..So I am making the best of the resources that I have.

I haven't watched the videos yet, but I heard Craig's biology are decent. I will be watching them this week after I finish feralis's notes. I only use achiever to indicate where I should focus on. If the question is about photosynthesis, I would try to mentally think of the general idea. If I can't even recall it, i know that's something I will need to work on.

When is your DAT?

I actually started watching Craig's videos, they seem to help me a lot and it makes studying less boring..

I haven't scheduled yet but I am planning to schedule soon for end of August/First week of September

Oh nice, mine is September 6th. I am behind in studying. I probably will start looking at Craig's this week.

Good luck!

I asked about Achiever because I am scoring 20+ on sciences in bootcamp/qvault..

I do want to use Achiever to concentrate on the weaknesses as well. I think it does challenge you to a certain extent which will only be beneficial come the real thing

I only did the first Achiever full test and my sciences were not great. I think they were 18, 20, 20 or something. I got a 23 on every qvault bio test, and 22-24 on the bootcamp free tests. My real test was slightly higher for bio 25 and ochem 24, much higher for genchem 28.

I think achiever is good to point out weaknesses if you have time to review it thoroughly and only if you have a thick skin. You have to be confident that you knoe your stuff or achiever could really get your mind in a bad place. If I had more time, I mighy have done another aciever science or two, but honestly I think bootcamp probably is better.
