I'm taking the DAT monday :scared:, so I'm planning on taking one last practice test. I have the third topscore test left to do, but I can also do the 2009 ADA sample DAT. Which do you think would be more worthwhile?
 
Something from the ADA will be more realistic. Have you taken the 2007 actual test they have available? I didn't use any practice tests that outside companies made. I didn't think they would help any. Either I would do well and couldn't rely on that score or I would do poorly because they are overly hard and then I would lose confidence. I personally would stick with the ADA.

Do both ! 😀
 
I would say this is not the time you want to take sample exams. it might generate more stress. just review your notes, especially the parts you think you need to review.
 
Taking the 2009 ADA DAT is a must before taking the real DAT.

I have my exam in one week also. I was not planning to take any practice exams..

Why do you say that it is a must to take a practice exam? Is there any other benefit to it than just exposing yourself to more questions??

A couple people are mentioning the 2009 ADA DAT but I heard this thing is full of errors? Is this not so? Why is it a must?

Yes, it is full of errors but there is a thread on SDN that show all the correct errors, I think its about 5 errors. The reason I say it's a must is because many of the questions are very similar wording to the real thing, 1 might even be the same wording on the real DAT. Jps - you really need to take several practice tests prior to taking the real DAT. Getting timing down is important and during the real DAT there is much more stress/pressure so the time seems to run out quicker than usual. Need test stamina as well.
