err retake i mean...this time around wasn't as bad

AA 20

Bio 22
pat 23

Bio: Very general, topscore was harder
Ochem: Lots of sn2/sn1, elimination stuff
gchem: I must have had 3 formal charge questions in the gchem and i was completely lost..
RC: passages felt longer than topscore..more overall "what is the author trying to say" type questions... so u cant just skim for keywords and stuff as much. i had nervous system, stocks (really fun!!! no joke), and cancer
QR: well i just suck at math so lets leave it at that
PAT: I didn't really focus much on pat this time around, i just retook 2 topscore pat tests since my last dat and it really helped. i suggest if u have time left over to recount the cubes, that's where i found myself losing 2 points bec i rush through it each time


good luck all!
oh yeah i gotta rant about how noisy these prometric test sites are~! 😡 😡 😡

Congratz on those solid scores. I wouldn't mind a 20 AA and a 23 PAT ^_^

that amazing, I have my dat in next Monday, I was wondering if I want to skip the first 30 question in PAT part, what should I do? do I just need to click next next ? is that similar to kaplan?
Also in RQ section what conversion factors (lb to g or oz to gallon ...) should we know? how was the questions? was that similar to topscore?
thanks
