Hello,

I am set to take my DAT next Wednesday after 2 grueling months of studying. I've been taking full length practice tests for 2 weeks now and am wondering if I can expect to score similarly on the real thing. I'm wondering because bootcamp felt pretty hard, and the ADA tests felt a lot easier so im not really sure what to expect. My practice scores are as follows:

Bootcamp test 7: 23AA
Bootcamp test 8: 23AA
Bootcamp test 9: 23AA
Bootcamp test 10: 25AA
2007 ADA: 24AA
2009 ADA: 24AA

Thanks!

No one is certain.
 
My average AA over 4 Bootcamp tests was between a 23 and 24, and I ended up with a 27 on the actual exam. I know a few people who scored a 23 AA after averaging 20-21 on BC. Like the person above said, no one is certain how difficult their specific exam will be and how they'll do, but I think you have a good chance to score similarly on Wednesday!

At the end of the day, you’re right. Depends on the specific exam you have and how familiar you are with the material. I felt like DAT bootcamp was easier though because you don’t deal with the same pressure like the actual DAT.
