Out of curiosity, and I know it's hard to give an exact answer,
but as an estimate:
How many questions you can miss overall to get 17 on RC
18
and 19
What is a no no score? I know they like this horrid section, but would 16 would be the last acceptable score if you get high scores in the rest. How many questions to get 16....


RC is worrying me a lot, so I need to know!


Thanks
 
RC you want to aim for 19+. RC is most strongly associated with performance in dental school. I have no idea how many answers you can miss to get around a 19.

Do you remember how many questions you missed on that section?

Is this true? My RC was extremely high but I never felt that good at RC and on practices I wasn't destroying them or anything
 
The scoring scale varies for every test so it's impossible to say how many you can get wrong for a 16/17/18 (and you don't want to be aiming for a score like that anyway IMO). I don't think it matters because either way you should be preparing to get as few questions wrong as possible. How are you preparing for the RC section?

No, I usually aim higher, but I want to know my limit.
That's good for my sanity.

That's why I need an estimate, how many questions people usually miss to get 17 or 18....
 
No one remembers how many questions they think they missed to get 19 or below 20?
 
You aren't told how many questions you miss at the end of the DAT, you are given a standard score. As Feralis said above, the scoring scale varies based on the performance of the test takers.
