My exam is in about a week and my topscore scores have been this so far:

TS 1:
Bio 18
GC 21
OC 19
RC 20
QR 20
PAT 17

TS 2:
Bio 19
GC 18
OC 21
RC 20
QR 17
PAT 17

I'm constantly scoring low on Topscore PAT, but i do better on Crack DATPat (better as in 18-20s)... I'm getting really worried cuz my exam is next week and from what I see, most people score lower on the real PAT than Topscore!
Also, for CDR, I took two of the exams and have gotten 18s, but I'm scoring 20s on the topscore... I hear that topscore is much easier than the real thing for RC.... should i reschedule my exam because of RC and PAT??

Thanks for the help!

no. just spend ~2 hours a day doing 2 CDP's and reviewing them. youll be fine!

I only did one crack dat pat and got a 21 (did not want to spend the money, used friends). But I did achievers and re-did the first two tests PAT. Then once I got to the real DAT I laughed and said this is easier almost closer to Kaplans then acheiver or crack. angle ranking is still super tough but TFE and keyholes were much easier then crack dat. everything else was similar.

Also say off SDN as much as possible.

PAT on the real thing is a bit harder than Topscore I would say. I scored the same as I did on TS, but I really struggled to get through the real one.

As far as RC, that seems to be a popular opinion around here, but I really didn't think the real RC was much harder than Topscore. It was slightly harder due to some tone/inference questions, but I thought it was pretty similar content wise, and the tone questions weren't that outlandish. It really depends on what type of passage you get though. It is hard to make a definite statement.

I saw my scores in all the sciences go up on the Real DAT.

My QR dropped a good bit. I wouldn't rely on Topscore for that. It will probably knock enough rust off to guarantee you an 18+, but if you want a better score on the QR, you will have to do a bit of actually studying it. I took the first Topscore QR and got a 16. The next two were 22 and 23. I got an 18 on the real thing, though I found Topscore's QR to be very easy. Expect more variety and some time consuming problems. Learn to skip problems you can't set up within about 5 seconds of looking at.

Thanks a lot guys!
I'm just fluctuating in CDP...this morning I took one and got an 18, right now I took another one and got 22... I'm definitely weak in pattern folding when they give shading and TFE when line counting doesn't work... I'm just praying I get an easy PAT section on the real test :/
