So i have been taking the Kaplan online practice tests and I have been scoring 17-18 AA and 20 PAT. I would like to hear honest suggestions and comments regarding how I am going to do on Real DAT????
Thanks.

i know that the angles are harder on the real thing.
maybe you should try topscore, it seems to be a pretty good indicator of how you will do

IMO, it will depend. Kaplan repeats a lot of info and also takes questions from their study materials. This makes it easier.
On the other hand, I have heard two people go up about 2 points from their Kaplan practices.

Kaplan final should be the easiest.

Hello.

I know every situation is different and it depends on what test you get and what background info you know but, I can only give you advice on my own experience.

I took kaplan tests and topscore pro tests, took the DAT twice and in both DAT tests that I took I got higher scores on the real thing both times.

Honestly the DAT has very random stuff in bio section so don't expect to ever be ready for this it just depends on what you know and the questions you get.

Gen Chem and Organic are very similar to kaplan but my first test I had no calculations at all, second test I had to calculate everything myself, kinda strange how different each test can be.

Math and PA is another story. I used crack that PAT for mine and it prepared me well. Math is not a good area for me so I am not even gonna go there with advice on that😀

Any other questions let me know and GOOD LUCK you should be fine with your kaplan scores the way they are though!
