Hey guys,
Does anyone know how the scoring compares on the DAT test prep from their site. Say if I get 27 questions right on gen chem out of 30. Then when I look up on the score sheet it says that is equivalent to a score of 21. Does that mean if you get 27 questions you get 21 on DAT? What happens if you get like 28 or 29 right..still 22 or 23? Wow..
Thanks,
R

Which score sheet did you look up? 21 sounds awfully low for 27-correct. It depends on the exam version of course, but usually, missing about 4 questions on GC or Orgo, and your down to a score of 20.
