hey guys,

i just took my first achiever test (test #1) and i want to know what you guys think:

Bio: 16
GC: 17
OC: 19
PAT: 14 😛
QR: 18
RC: 20
AA: 18
TS: 17

are these scores good? i've been using the destroyer a whole lot, and the kaplan blue book. when i was doing the pat section, i started getting really dizzy (probably cause of the dry erase markers) lol but i know i definitely need to work on the perceptual ability section...do you think getting crack the pat will help? my actual test date is august 16 and i was wondering if have one more month of studying under my belt will be enough to get my scores in the 20s..thanks for your input! 🙂
 
I sure hope so! I took the same exam today and I got:

AA 19
PAT 16
QR 18
RC 20
BIO 18
GC 19
OC 18
TS 19

Best of luck to you on exam day! 🙂
 
Hey guys I dont want to discourage you but I just dont think those are very strong scores. I took the test last oct which I know was late but still I took some extra time to make sure I would take this test once and get a great score. I feel like your sciences are low and your AA is low. For the PAT, you should be around 18 or above in my opinion. When I was looking at school to apply and saw their average scores, I knew I had to be above it to be in a better position than the average applicant. Now if I am not mistaken I have seen 19 AA as the highest average or it may have been a 20. Keep this in mind so you know what competition you have. If your exam is in a month then go on ahead, increase the studying time everyday, take more practice tests and problems and bump up them scores to have a better chance and options for which school you want to go to. Use the DAT achiever to your advantage since I saw a few of the SAME questions on the real DAT from the achiever so good luck with your test.
 
Hi MSH. Thank you for your input. I have heard from many posters that the achiever is harder than the real exam and if I'm lucky enough, I can expect to add 1-3 points (assuming my performance does not deteriorate) to my achiever score to obtain my DAT score. Is that not true?
 
you will do much better on the real thing, don't worry too much 🙂
