Hey guys!

I'm struggling with this section. I can't even crack 8/15. Any tips would be highly appreciated. Thank you

PRACTICE!!! PRACTICE!!! if you can get like 8-9/15 then you'll be good. The real DAT angles are a lot easier. BC has med and hard questions. DAT has EASY, medium, and a few harder ones.

Practice TPE and keyhole. Those are harder or as hard as BC.

Are you using the Bootcamp angle generators/looking at Bootcamp PAT tests 6-10? If so you SHOULD NOT be worried. I would get around 8/15 too and ended up with a 22 PAT, because those resources are more difficult than the real thing. Practice tests 1-5 are a much better indicator of what to expect. Good luck!!

No, I am only doing the generators for now. How would you rate pattern folding on Bootcamp vs. the actual DAT?
Also, everyone is complaining about math. How's math on the Bootcamp vs. DAT? Thanks in advance

I would say that pattern folding on the actual DAT is easier than Bootcamp. Math is harder on the actual DAT, just use Destroyer and make sure you work fast, you'll be fine!

Hey!

For my PAT, patterns were easier than bootcamp. Process of elimination is your best friend.

Hard to say for angles, angles and keyholes were two subjects I never really "got". So I think they would have been hard for me no matter how easy/hard. Hope this helps.
