I got 21AA 21TS.
RC was mine worse section, I didnt study for this section at all. Got a 18 lol.
Mine first passage was terrible, Not search-and-destroyeble at all. I got stuck like 25min on the first passage. Second one was pretty fair.I got like 13 min left for the last passage. Thank god it was a easy one. 17 questions all were definitions, I just need to search the words in the passage and destroy em.
I think RC section is all about the technique, its not really a "reading comprehension ". And I think unless you're a super fast reader, the only way to do it is search and destroy. So don't worry, just do a buck load of practice test. I just did mine 5 RC practice tests on the Datbootcamp a week before the test. Should've done practiced more on RC lol.
Hope this help and good luck.

I emailed the ADA and they said

"Currently there is not a set date of implementation or any further information regarding the biology section updates than what is stated in the most recent DAT Newsletter. Any further information will be posted on the DAT home page as soon as it becomes available."

So basically no clue

Which RC is harder.....Bootcamp or CDR?

P.S. you said the first passage has no search and destroy....what kind of questions did they have? Is the first passage harder or easier than bootcamp and CDR? Did you have any challenges an assertions and assumption questions at all. P.S. what about the author agrees or dissagree with the statement. Was the first passage hard?

I've never had CDR. So can't really compare to it. I just remember from the passage there were a lot of questions like "a scientists wish to conduct a experiment using this and that technique, which of the following is correct?" or "the author would strongly against wich of the following statement?" or "If a scientist did something something, what could be the results ". They were all kinds of weird questions.

Another thing is, mine didn't have that much questions where they give you two statements and you choose if both of them are correct or related.

So was the first passage difficult? And were the passages very long like about 15 paragraphs or more? If less than 15, how many paragraphs were there in each passage?
