I have a stupid question and need your help/advice/suggestion please.
I've seen some improvements in my PAT, QR, RC but NOTHING in my sciences. Can someone please tell me what i need to do? i feel like i'm stuck with the same scores and cannot move up to the 20s. I've been reading many threads on how to review and understand the answers, which i do, but cant seem to just move on the 17-19:bang:. Maybe i'm not doing the 'reviewing my answers' right?
any suggestions would be great.

thanx.
 
maybe its not your studying, but how your taking the test. read each question carefully and look out for trick questions that appear easy
 
Here is what I do. I am currently mainly using Destroyer by the way. I will do a 30 question set, just like the real DAT. I don't necessarily time it, but I also don't use any notes or look up questions. I will then grade myself and give myself a very rough DAT score. I will then put it down for a while, move on to some other sections, then come back.

This is the important part: I will go through every question (right or wrong) and make sure I know WHY I missed it or WHY the answer is correct (especially if I guessed). If it is not a dumb mistake or something incredibly easy, I make a notecard out of it. I may ask the exact question, rephrase it, or whatever to understand the CONCEPT, not the answer.

I am currently going through the General Chemistry and Organic sections for the 2nd time, and I have already seen a large jump in scores.
