Today, I drove out to the Sylvan Learning center just to see how long it took, and to get a look at where I'd be taking my test this friday. When I walked in, I told the prometric receptionist that I am taking the test on friday, and I just wanted to see what the facility looked like. She was very snappy towards me and said, "you can look from out THERE" and gestured towards the door. Needless to say, I left and felt that the lady was unccessarily rude.
So, I went to the grocery store and bought a bunch of Ben & Jerry's and some Tim's Cascade potato chips. I'll be fueling my brain with simple sugars and a nice helping of fats!!!
One more word for those of you still preping for your test in the future: I've taken every single practice test, subject test, computer test that I can get my hands on, and I have been making note cards of problems that I've missed on the practice tests since day 1. I must say these cards have been a tremendous resource to me....I've been going over them the last couple days. If I run into one I don't quite understand, I'll look it up in one of my college text books to make sure that the test-maker was correct. It really helps you spot Kaplan's and Topscore's mistakes.
And yesterday, I took a science test from an old released 1993 DAT, and I only missed 3 questions...that's a score of 27 on science. I'm not expecting that one the real DAT, but gee, those notecards I've made are a lifesaver!!
Good luck everyone...I will keep you updated on my progress!
