So I'm just gonna get into the scores...

Bio: 21 (95.5)
OC: 23 (97.1)
GC: 23 (97.3)
TS: 22 (98.3)
RC: 19 :[ (67.6)
QC: 20 (95.1)
AA: 21 (97.2)
PAT: 25 (99.1)

I'm not sure if i should take it again or apply with these scores. What do you guys think?

How I studied...
i used this website acedat.wordpress.com
HAS ALOT OF GOOD FACTS, kinda outdated books, but nonetheless it had good tips

BIO:
DAT destroyer, cliff notes AP Bio, and Campbell's Bio textbook
Honestly, it was alot easier than i thought because i thought i would score lower on bio, but alot of the questions i saw from DAT destroyer.

GC & OC:
Chad's videos and DAT Destroyer. Enough said.

PAT:
I didn't really use anything except going through the sections. i mean if you guys want some tips that i have ill tell you but honestly i think its just practice. Do alot of practice exams and just become faster at it especially for angle ranking.

RC & QR:
Just destroyer and practice tests, but i shouldve focused a little more on these sections, i felt like the QR was harder than destroyer questions. BE PREPARED, the questions are pretty random on QR. As for RC... i screwed up on my first passage, i shouldve read through it and went into the questions because alotta of the questions asked were "theme" questions. O well....

OVERALL:
Topscore. DO IT. it's a great way to get familiar with the testing on the computer as well as getting used to the format of DAT. ALSO timing is key for QR and RC. I would say the science section was a lot like Topscore and the practice tests that i've taken. I finished with 20 mins left? Thought i did better than what i got, but oh well. and finally Prayer works. :]

18RC is fine.

Don't retake you have a 20+ in every other section. 21AA is great.
 
21/22/25<--No way I'd retake. If you have deficiencies in your app, they aren't here. Congrats and great job.
 
Retake? Definitely. Just kidding. Those are solid scores and you should be thrilled. What's your GPA?
