Great job, congrats! I think the rest of SDN would love to know how you increased your QR by 13 points. That's dedication right there. 👍

great job!

Sure I will help anyone with the QR portion. What I would do is be very familiar with fractions. Depend less on the calculator. In 2009 when I took the QR they didn't have the calculator on there so I did everything by hand and got used to doing it quickly. I felt like many answer choices were far away from each other so even an approximate calculation was sufficient. Practice makes perfect for this section I believe.

I have also always been really strong in math (I scored 800 on practice SAT's and around 750 on the real thing back then). I am sorry if I wasn't much help. I am just really quick with numbers and patterns.

Just wonder how you end up having 22 AA while your TS is 19 and your RC is 20 😕

30+20+19+22+18 = 109/5 = 21.8 ~ 22AA....academic average is an average of the five academic sections of the DAT.

way to go! those are great scores.

I hope that is true, because I've always gotten between 780 and 800 on SAT math and praying itll lead to a high QR so I won't have to worry about it...but a constant 650ish on reading makes me dread RC lol
