Hey everyone, I'm a long time lurker this is my first post however.

I've heard that only missing a couple of questions on any given section of the dat can bring your score down in that section somewhere around low 20's. I was just wondering how true this was and everyone's personal experience.

I look forward to hearing your responses, this board has been so informative.

around 3-4 questions on each of the science sections will bring that particular section to the low 20s. You get much more leeway on the PAT/RC/QR sections though.
