ADA Practice DAT

Just wondering how the ADA practice test compares with the actual DAT? Some sections were easier (O chem), some harder (Angles- PAT) than Topscore. Just trying to get an idea...

It all seems to average out. Use all these resources to get an idea. I agree that Ochem was easy on ADA. It was still pretty comparable on the real test (I got a 25 on the ADA and a 22 on the real test). I never took the ADA PAT section, but my highest Topscore PAT was like a 22 and my real was a 24. They really are all pretty similar. Just study every question you can get your hands on and if you're in the 20's on your practice tests (and you don't get all nervous on the big day) you'll probably be in the 20's on the real test if not higher. Good luck!

i was wondering the same thing...i wasn't certain that they had provided enough time (30 min, 2 passages, 34 questions) for the reading comprehension section...from the look of things though i have a ways to go before the DAT in August.

I just registered for the dat..... will ADA automatically send me a practice exam?

Practice test is 100% easier than the real thing

I got my ADA practice test from my pre-dent advisor. But they have the exact same test on the ADA website. Just go to the same place that you registered for the DAT and it's somewhere around there. (It says ADA practice Test).

They'll send you a copy in the mail or you can print it out online - go to the DAT page and it's under Test preparation materials. It's a pdf file.
