What do you guys think of it? I did poorly on Key Holes, but good on Top Front End and Pattern Folding. didn't time myself though.

Take them as good practice tests. Personally, PAT on the real DAT is much harder than the ones from kaplan. In terms of difficulty, I think the real PAT is a bit easier than achiever DAT.

the kaplan tests are excellent, though for me the angle ranking an hole punching were harder on the real thing both times I took it. However the key to performing well on the PAT is to take as many practice tests as possible (I answered at least a couple thousand pat practice questions to get my scores up to the 24-27 level, then got a 24 on the real thing), so I say just take every test you can get your hands on (though you might be careful with Barron's, since their test answers tend to be blatantly incorrect).

i have found a couple of mistakes with kaplan in keyholes... and the angle ranking is WAY too easy with kaplan... it doesn't simulate how it will be on the real test at all.... most other sections are pretty good though!

I'd be careful with that, though I did find one or two kaplan keyholes that I still consider incorrect, many of the ones I at first thought were wrong turned out to be right. keyholes can be tricky that way.

Kaplan is good preparation.
