So I realize that Achiever is supposed to be harder that the real thing, but are ALL sections harder to the same extent or some more and some less?

I just took my first one and here's what I got:
Bio24/GC21/OC23/RC21/PAT21/QR29.

The main part I'm concerned about is the PAT. It basically murdered me. I've got 26 on Kaplan CD, 25s on CDP's #8and10 tests, and 23 and 25 on TS 1 and 2. Basically I'm confused 'cause the Aperture and TFE were MUCH harder and the angles easier than CDP and Topscore.

The RC I thought was fare (and I'm not good at it) but I did not like their passages, maybe a good thing 'cause I might not like passages on DAT either.

But yeah, my main concern is PAT. I know everyone says CDP is the way to go, but the angles on that kill me whereas here it was the aperture/TFE, so I'm trying to figure out which one to work on more (test is next Wed, not too much time left).

Thanks for ur input.

And I just read on one of the forums that Achiever's PAT is more like the real thing. Anyone agree/disagree???
 
Well...I think QR might be easier. I think sciences are close.
The last few CDP tests (they all are a bit easier IMO) might be easier but nonetheless you have great scores for PAT either way.
 
Well I thought I had PAT down, but I was really taken by surprise. Aperture and TFE usually take me 8-9 mins each in CDP/TS and I get 1-2 wrong. Here it took me 30 minutes total basically and I got 7 wrong, and I basically didn't have time to finish the last 3-4 pattern foldings lol. If that had happened to me on the actual test, I would have tripped the **** out .......

The CDPs are all fairly the same difficulty right? or some harder/easier??
