Hi everyone!

Those that have taken the real DAT, if you could post your practice scores (please indicate Kaplan, Topscore, Dat Achiever...and the ones you get on the official DAT day, it would be very helpful, for the rest of us to gauge our readiness (though I know it's different for everyone).

I haven't taken my DAT yet, so I will wait until then to post. :luck:
 
......Kaplan...Real Deal
AA....18...........20
TS....18...........20
OC....21...........19
GC....15...........21
BIO...19...........20
RC.....17...........22
QR.....18...........20
PAT....20...........25

Most people I have talked to tend to go up 2 points on the real thing. However, don't use it as an excuse. I know some others who stayed the same or went down. Study like a gun's to your head and the real thing won't be so bad.
Angles are alot tougher but, stress yourself out by taking multiple practice test a week so when you take it, it will be routine. Becareful about what you feel your strengths are, as you can see my OC dropped because i didn't think i needed to study for it. Then again I focused on GC and it went way up. Good luck.
