Anyone have suggestions for which DAT practice tests are most accurate to your actual DAT score? I have access to Kaplans full length tests and crack the dat and wanted to know if those are close indicators to the actual test. Thanks in advance

ADA 2009 practice test. I scored exactly the same on each section except for QR, on the real test I got 2 points higher

IMO there are no tests that can possibly predict with accuracy what you will score on the DAT. Common sense says if you are presented different questions on your actual DAT exam than what was presented on the practice test, depending on your knowledge you can score higher or lower. A huge mistake I see students make is waste hours and hours taking timed test when time could be better spent learning .

I do agree if you are going to take a timed test the 2007 and 2009 will give the likeness of the actual DAT because it was written by the test makers.

There are many, many ,many versions of the DAT and only only the ADA has the formula that is used to calculate the final scores.

Just my 2 cents after many years of experience working with students.

The 2009 was pretty accurate for me, Except the math section. I got a 14 on the QR for the 2009 version, and a 21 on the real thing. Bootcamps quantitative reasoning were more like the one I had on the real thing
