DAT is approaching and I'm honestly worried most about RC than the other sections. English isn't my first language so I'm at a slight disadvantage for RC. So far I've done Kaplan's RC and two of the TopScore tests. Which one do you think is more similar to the real DAT? For example one thing thats bugging me is the way the answers are formated. In Kaplan for example some of the questions are worded differently than in the text so you have to understand the passage or at least part of it to correctly answer it. I also noticed that TopScore basically has the same exact wording in almost all their answers so you can literally S&D your way through it. Is the DAT RC more similar to Kaplan's or TopScores would you say?
 
Honestly, i havent done a lot of kaplan practice because i always felt it was a little too simple. I think topscore reading was definitely more like the real DAT but topscore is a little easier because of the similar questions. Topscore was good because it gave you passages that werent just science. If your score isnt improving, use Crack the DAT Reading. It also has questions that are all basically the same and the passages were easier to search and destroy the whole thing. Also, you can read some scientific journals once and a while to get used to reading a dense passage. Basically, just keep practicing!
