Reading Comp Practice

[jsk26]

Im studying for the DAT and am looking for material to study for the reading comp section. I have been reading scientific american and the like but want practice tests to work on this section. Are there any resources out there besides Bootcamp that are comparable to the actual DAT?

Hi I tried scientific american in the beginning (did 1hr everyday for 1 month). For me, didnt help me improve so I stopped RC completely. My test is June 15th and I started doing 10CDR and plan on finishing 7qvault RC. My rc practice score went from 15 to 20-22.
My suggestion is to skip the scientific american and do practice exams before the DAT

My scores started to hit 19+ on RC when I realized how screwed I am for the real DAT. Little panic got me there

English is my second language and been struggling on RC ever since the SAT lool

Hey @gangazi! What method you're using for reading?

 

[DSNCSUN]

DAT Genius has a free one you can use but it seemed easier than Bootcamp when I went through one of the passages

I was looking over the method and it looks like I should give it a try. The only thing is that I'm not a fast reader, do you think that the method will still help me?
