These are the scores from my first practice DAT from a Kaplan study book with a practice DAT in the back. I've heard that topscore is much more realistic and DAT achiever is way harder. How much easier would you guys say the Kaplan practice tests are?

TS: 19
PAT: 18
RC: 21
QR: 17

I did better on my actual DAT overall than I did on any of the 5 Kaplan tests. PAT and QR might be a little harder I feel but the scores were comparable to those I got on the Kaplan.
 
I also did better on the actual DAT than I did on any of the Kap practice tests. You can compare my scores in my breakdown below (in my signature).
