Members don't see this ad.

Okay guys so test is coming up and I just did my first achiever. I only did the Science and PAT. And got the following scores:
Bio: 15
Chem: 16
Orgoo: 16
PAT: 16

Im getting a little scared now. Do you guys think I can still do well on the real thing? I am worried about my PAT score and I thought that the PAT was extremely difficult. What should I expect in terms of the real thing? Any study suggestions for me? DAT is monday so I really dont have a lot of time to review in between the exams.

I really need some input. Oh and I made about 4 careless errors in BIO so I tihnkmy score will def. be higher. What do you guys think?

I think achiever on the whole is harder than the real DAT,so you should be ok. I usually make a list of all the topics of stuff I missed at the end of each test,and go back and take notes/read those topics. Eventually,you end up overlapping what youre going over,and memorize in the process. Good luck

thanks amsie. I hope you moved your test date up your gonna destroy that test.
I made a list of the things I didnt know. Most where detailed stuff about taxonomy plants, hardy weingber etc... About to go over the chem stuff now.

But the PAT was a killer.

yeah,ive never on any test(topscore/achiever/kaplan) gotten higher than a 20PAT-and im not going to waste time practicing anymore if I can use the next few weeks to get really good at the math and sns. schaums helps for the taxonomy and plants,if you have it.

thanks. Thing is I still have no clue how to do the pattern folding! Im going to review it today and hopefully achiever's visualizations will shed some light. I usually start that section with only 4 minutes left which is "fine" because I dont know how to do it anyway. So I attempt 3-4 questions and then have time to select all Cs for the remaine 10-11 questions. Still managing to somehow get a 16 on achiever PAT.

Don't worry just continue with your studying. I was getting 14-15s on the Achiever and ended up with 19-23s on the real DATs. Just make sure to put the time into reviewing the questions. I usually spent 2-3 times longer reviewing.

Good luck!!

714guy that makes me feel better lol. Yea I am reviewing every single question! I am still freaking out though. I mean 16sss. Hard for me to imagine getting a 20 in anything and my confidence is shot right now.
