I took kaplan midterm and final by on-line.

kaplan mid: Bio17 GC17 OC18 RC14 QR19 PAT23

kaplan final: Bio19 GC16 OC18 RC14 QR18 PAT23

I have just 14 days before real test.

What score do I expect?

How can I improve my low RC score?

My way(what the hell way!!@#!) of RC is Kaplan way( 1 read first sentence and write down little then attack problems). I don't have time after solving 2 passages. :scared:
so I always mark c on last passage.

I am extreme slow reader 😱 , since I am an international student.

My dream score is 18... please help me, any advise thank you.

Keep practicing and I'm sure you'll do well in the DAT. Good luck
 
I had problems finishing my reading passages while I was doing the roadmap approach, so I changed. Now I do much better by just reading the first paragraph to get a feel for the passage and then read the questions to get a better understanding of what the passage is about and what I am going to be tested on.

If you search for other posts, you'll find tons of advice on how to finish the reading section on time.

Good Luck.

Thank you for your reply.

I should need more practice and change method. 🙂
 
agreed, i couldnt do the kaplan method, writing takes wayyy too much time. I was scoring like 13-14 before, after using kaplan it came up to abuot 16 and then i modified it and was scoring 22-23. Im not at all afast reader. If i were to actualyl read the whole passage i would only be able to dothe first to. the point is to get a feel for what the passage is about my reading the first lines and then make a little "mental roadmap" -short term memory of sorts, and then go to the questions. Just attack the questions straight and see how that works for u, everyone is different so modify the technique in a way that works best for u, RC and QR are my weakest sections but now RC is good to go, heh now time to work on QR, BLAH
