I took the 2009 ADA practice exam today. I used a scoring chart for my scores so I hope it's accurate.

Bio-21
GC-21
OC-19
PAT-21
RC-20
QR-18

I was surprised at my OC score, thought I would do better in OC over Gen chem.

QR I saw at least 3 problems I was completely unfamiliar with and didn't bother guessing since I didn't want to skew my score positively for guessing right.....of course I will guess on the real thing. I also ran short on time for a couple of word problems.

I plan on hitting Topscore next Tuesday after some more review this weekend.

I will probably review some bio tonight but I feel like I have a post-exam hangover!
 
You're in very good shape. Just make sure you go over what you missed and understand why. I took the 2009 ADA exam and realized it was riddled with errors so make sure you go through SDN threads to see the corrections of the exam. It helped my score! Here were my scores:
2009 ADA Scores (real DAT)
AA: 18 (20)
TS: 18 (21)
PAT: 22 (22)
BIO: 21 (22)
GC: 16 (19)
OC: 17 (22)
RC-14 (20)
QR- 19 (17)

Best of luck and hope this helps!
 
Thank you, yes it helps. I'm so glad I took it because it's so hard to know how your studying is panning out when you haven't put to the test.

They did send a sheet of corrected questions with the 2009 exam. Do you think/know there were more errors in addition to that? There was a hydroboration that I thought for sure their answer was wrong.
 
If you bought the paper copy, I'm sure they corrected their mistakes. I bought the one online and was bummed they didn't even have an answer sheet for the ones I got wrong. Really makes you wonder if they make these mistakes on the real DAT ya know..
