Question about DAT destroyer score

Hey folks I've been getting untimed scores of around 60-66% right on bio and math. Around 55-60% on chemistry. Is this ideal for the first read through?

 

[I-hate-alginate]

Yes. This is fine. Make sure you understand the questions you get wrong.

Yes that is very normal for destroyer! Don't think you're going to do bad on the DAT because of how you're doing on destroyer because it is just a study tool. Make sure to go through it more than once! That's my biggest regret.

Yes, far better than I was my first time around. Destroyer is a learning tool not an assessment tool. Don't keep track of your correct vs incorrect answers

I was scoring maybee 50% my first runthrough. Use it as a study tool not practice tests.

That seems like a pretty normal first time through. Don't get disheartened! The first time I went through the DAT Destroyer, I got destroyed! I was very concerned about how I was going to do on the actual DAT, and a little disheartened that I wasn't getting 80%-90% correct. But as others have said about, it is just a tool for studying and it is not relatable to the actual difficulty level of the DAT.

Keep studying!
Best of luck

So I'm guessing the real thing will be less difficult and less tricky?

No.

To an extent, yes. But don't underestimate it.

No, it'll be as difficult. You will just be more acquainted with the materials. It'll be more like your 2nd or 3rd time scores with destroyer. Do destroyer 2x+ then do bootcamp. Bootcamp will be representative of your scores, maybe a little lower than your actual scores. I went up a bit more on most things compared to my averaged bootcamp scores (minus gen chem, averaged 23, got a 19 🙁 )

I had near word for word questions on my dat. And many VERY related questions. You'll see. 🙂
