Hey SDN:

I am taking the DAT in about a month and can't seem to get my RC score up any higher. Does anyone have any ideas about how to get my score up? What has worked for you guys?

This is what I did:

1. read the first 4-5 questions
2. Begin reading the passage.
3. As you read take notes on keywords (remember to note which paragraph. The easiest thing here is to label your paper 1-15, with enough space between for keywords, before you begin)
4. Read until you are able to answer all 5 questions.
5. Read the next 4-5 questions
6. Answer any that you have already read
7. If you have not read the answer to the new questions continue reading from where you left off until you answer the 5 questions.
8. Generally by this time you have read the entire passage so continue on to last 3-5 questions.
***Remember if you have already read the answer to one of the questions but don't remember the answer specifically use your keyword notes to find the correct paragraph quickly***

Taking good keyword notes may take some practice 👍 Good luck!

Have you tried the search and destroy method?
