Is there questions on the actual test with 5 folding events (like the example on the bottom of the picture) or are they all 4 cases? im not refering to number of "folds" but rather number of "events" happening

I took the test last year and cant recall but from what i remember based on the actual test and all the practice problems, there was always 4 events with "X" amount of folds. has this changed? becuse im doing crack dat pat and lots of their problems has 5 seperate events and its annoying me cuz its extra hard for no reason......

Although I don't remember for sure, I do believe there were some that had 4 folds plus the punch event* totaling 5 events. It usually doesn't make the problem too much harder except they do do some weird folds sometimes that can make it difficult when unfolding to determine what's punched. Just practice you'll be in good shape.
 
I took mine about a month ago, and I don't remember there being any 5 folding events. The PAT portion was easier than what I expected.
 
ok thanks guys. pat is my strongest area and i usually fly through hole punching and cube counting in all achiever, kaplan and topscore but this crack dat pat hole punching is way too hard and annoys me. just wanted to make sure they havent changed the actual test.........

I usually take about 20 minutes for hole punching, angle ranking and cube counting then really dedicate my other 40 to the other 3 sections that are more time consuming.

its funny because I also agree that the acutal DAT pat feels like cake but nevertheless, both times ive only score 20's and ive felt like i nailed it with a 24+.. and i always score 20+ on practice problems. interesting what happens once ure in there.....
