So...
I've finally perfected (well as perfect as it can get) the sciences. I took the 2007 DAT yesterday and the 2009 DAT today. My TS scores were 24 for 2007 and 22 for 2009. The problem is that I’ve noticed my scores for PAT, RC, and QR decrease. Math has always been a nematode in my intestinal tract (and not the mutualistic type if you catch my drift) so I just don’t really care, I'll be happy with an 18. But the PAT and RC are very important scores. I don’t know what to do at this point. I was scoring 20's + for these two sections a couple weeks ago... practice seems to be bringing them down. Does anyone have any advice? Has this happened to anyone else?

many have stated that the 2007 is easier in comparison to 2009. so you might not be getting worse, just had a harder test.

maybe because you're letting your nerves get to you because your exam date is closer. just relax, you know you did your best now you just have to calm down and practice.

its not just those two tests though, its been over the past week or so. I guess I am just nervous, my exam is in a week from today

you're not getting dumber haha, you're just nervous, same thing happened to me, i was freaking out.. but looking back at it now, that is what ruined my score, my anxiety and nerves.
