[ibo man]

What do you guys think about barrons reading passages compared to the real dat, topscore and kaplan reading. To me I think the barron's reading is the hardest. Let me know what you guys think.

do you mean barron's reading passages is harder than the real dat?

Topscore and Kaplan are more similar to the actual DAT, but I think the real one is actually easier than all these practice materials. The real one definitely is easier than Barrons.

I was freaking out when I was doing the Barron passages, I thought I will get the things in the same difficulty.... But for me Barron was pretty much useless except the PAT part.

But you never know, I might get lucky in my actual DAT... maybe someone will tell you differently. But I don' think you have to worry too much
