Hey so my DAT is on Monday the 26th but for some reason I feel so unprepared and forgetful of everything I've studied for. I was thinking about rescheduling to a later date and just wanted some feedback on my scores so far on the practice items I have taken.

Qvault:
Bio- 25, 18, 18, 19, 20, 21, 19, 22, 18
Chem - 26, 20, 22, 22, 19, 18, 22, 20
Ochem - 24, 26, 20, 20, 20, 21, 20, 22, 19, 24
QR - 20, 19, 22

Topscore i have only done the science sections but my scores were as follows:
Bio 17. 19, 18
Chem 17, 19, 19
Ochem 20, 19, 22

I have heard various things about both testing softwares ranging from Qvault/Topscore is easier/harder/same level as DAT but there never seems to be a true consensus and am definitely panicking because of that. What do you guys think? Any feedback, reassurances or criticisms would be great!

Those practice scores look fine to me.. Honestly, your real DAT score can range up or down from your practice tests.. I thought my DAT test was pretty random but Bootcamp seemed to be the most similar and helpful.. have you took some bootcamp exams?

I took the free ones only and believe I scored 20ish ochem, 17 chem, and high twenties for bio but I don't have the finances currently to buy anything else since I have already purchased destroyer, qvault, topscore and CDP. The most worrisome thing is the lack of a general feeling on how comparable those softwares are to the actual test. Topscore some questions seem very detailed, especially the bio and qvault I don't know what to think because I don't want those scores to make me overconfident if qvault is easier than some say. Overall I am just very confused and don't know what to think lol.

Your practice scores look good. If you feel unprepared then push it back, but don't push it back so far that you lose motivation or forget things you've already studied. You'll never feel fully prepared...
