So was perusing through some of the ADA's presentations on DAT updates and came across this tidbit of information that might be useful for you guys.
Numerical Calculations, Conversions, and Geometry will eventually be phased out while
Data analysis, Interpretation and Sufficiency, Quantitative Comparison, and Probability and statistics will be added in.
This new QR section is geared towards testing more critical thinking skills rather than computation.
These new, most likely wordier questions will appear on 2014 and 2015 tests, but these are only pilot questions, and answering them will NOT affect your QR or AA score.
However in 2016, they WILL be counted towards your QR and AA!
