Just finished SNS part 1 and my brain hurts so bad I don't know what to do. I thought that test was very hard but here are my scores for Achiever test 1.

There were a few that I had absolutely no clue about. And many were just reasoned through. I hate bio :meanie:
 
why do people randomly post practie test scores for no reason?
good job? you know those are good for achiever. i see no point.
 
Okay...really!! You know those are awesome scores...Y do you post them...I think you are going to blow the DAT away..especially with all your comments and scores I've seen in the past. Your scores blow me away...really.. The reason I posted my scores when I took the DAT achiever is to ask people if I'm okay...but really..with those scores..what do you expect us to say...umm..I think you need to study a little more.. You R more than fine..you R beyond fine..Take the DAT already..I hope I score half as good as yours...LOL...hard work pays off..Good Job..

sorry guys. i wasn't looking for reassurance or compliments and I honestly wasn't trying to boast. haven't you ever been excited about something and wanted to share it? i just wanted to tell someone because i was really freakin surprised myself...but it's 1:45 am, the wife is at work, and i told my dog but he doesn't give a ****. so flame away if you must.
 
lol...didn't mean to come off like that..LOL..I'm at work right now..and getting tired..anyways..you are way prepared..I appreciate all your input with questions I have..and that's what I mean by prepared..you are going to rock the DAT...can't wait till your wife get's to here the news...LOL

Are you cheating? Looking up the answer again? Your dog caught you, that's why it didn't give a **** 😀
 
I hate you!

You're the reason I might not get into dental school.

wow!!! great score!!!

my first achiever score was pretty low. 🙁 my big day is aug 30.

I'm thinking about changing the date or not...

You did really good job!!

How did you study?
 
You are set! You are going to blow us away with your real scores 😉
 
Thanks for the kind words guys. Some of you asked how I have been studying...

Kaplan is all I have used for Chem and OChem but know every last word, equation, & mechanism in those sections. For bio I have gone through Kaplan twice, once 8 months ago and once this past week. I also used DAT destroyer for bio and supplemented with Schaums. I have also been looking up anything that I did not recognize online, mainly via Wikipedia. Like the nosocomial infection someone mentioned they had on their RC.

I also did all 5 Kaplan subject tests in each section (the ones that I have been handing out on SDN). From there I wrote down the type of every question I got wrong and studied that material more. Then I did Topscore and repeated the process, spot-studying as needed.

Bio is my worst subject b/c it bores me to death. If anyone has any ideas for good bio material, I'm all ears. Good luck to everyone :luck: :luck: :luck:

First of all, djeffreyt, you will get into any dental school you want with your gpa and dat score. Secondly, lifeisgood, your scores are amazing and not only will you get into any dental school you want but you will also get scholarship to almost any school you want. I hope both you and djeffreyt dont have Penn as your first choice bec then there is no way that I am getting in with my 20 let alone getting some money out of it.

Nope, didn't even apply to Penn. I hope you get in there. 👍
 
dr romano and nancy already called me this morning-he gave me a list of like 20 things to know that hes going to go over..and i was driving and trying to write them down at the same time :laugh:
 
I hate bio too, how do you study for it to get that good of a score in that subject? I'm still trying to figure a way to really study for the bio section.

know kaplan like the inside of your favorite bar. supplement with schaums for plants, ecology, taxonomy. pay attention to every question posed here on sdn and cross reference anything that looks unfamiliar with textbooks or google or wikipedia.

Ok lifeisgood now tell everyone your real scores. Just kidding man. Good job.

You think the testing center will let me bring my dog to the test? He is really smart and kind of helped me with the Achiever test. He barks once for A, twice for B, etc... Is that considered cheating? :scared:

I would bump up your test date if I were you. Just get it over with.


I thought about it and looked into it and I could move it up to Saturday or Tuesday but I still want to review QR and PAT a little more. Not to mention I just took Achiever 2 SNS and I must not have had enough caffeine :scared: b/c I made a bunch of really STUPID mistakes.
