DAT Bootcamp PAT

So, I started out with CDP and started averaging ~20 on the later tests. I've done Bootcamp tests 1-7 and have consistently gotten 18's...I take the tests the night before and review them in the morning. I must be missing something...DAT is in less than 3 days! Any advice?

I'm actually on the same boat, but my difference bootcamp scores were 19. They bootcamp questions are a bit harder. Keyhole is a bit more difficult than CDP as well as for TFE. The site just got an update to make the angles harder. The real exam will be easier (that's what everyone says lol) Don't worry to much about it. Even if you get an 18 on the PAT, it's not gonna kill you.

The main difference is TFE and Keyholes. CDP allows you to get away with counting lines and the keyholes don't take size into account. Bootcamp does. Just do a few more tests and you'll get used to having to account for more things.

You are doing great. I did a few Bootcamp PAT and got 17, 18 and 19 (about 3 days before my exam) and I got a 20 in the real PAT.
It is easier than bootcamp. Therefore, you will be fine for the PAT section in the DAT.

Thanks for the advice guys! I just took my DAT today and pulled a 19. Bootcamp helped immensely.

I got 18's and 19's on bootcamp tests and a 23 on the real deal. Keep practicing
