Hi everyone, I'm taking the OAT next week and I'm getting really nervous. On my OAT achiever tests I am getting around 310 TS but on the opted test I got 350 TS. I know everyone says Achiever is way harder, I'm just freaking out a few days ahead of time 😕 Could anyone who has studied with Achiever tell me what to expect based on my achiever vs. opted vs. actual oat score?? Thanks and good luck to everyone else who's studying!
 
I was wondering the same thing as you a few days ago and am also taking my test next week. If you search for "Achiever" you will find some threads where people list their achiever scores vs the actual scores. From my memory, most people score 30-60 pts higher on the actual exam than achiever and the opted test was said to be very accurate as to what you will get come test day.
 
I didn't use Achiever. But, I scored almost the same on the actual OAT as I scored in the opted practice test. Actually, I think I did about 10-20 pts better on the actual test too. So, don't worry, I have heard that the Achiever tests are harder than the actual one. You should expect to score around the same as the opted test, maybe even higher! 🙂
 
I prepared with Kaplan and was starting to panic a couple of weeks before my exam. On the Kaplan practice test I was having a lot of problems getting my physics mark above 300. I read on a thread to take the opted exam, so I did. The opted exam was the most accurate when compared to how I scored on the actual OAT.
