I've been reading threads and posts on the SDN once in a while this summer, and I remember I ever saw one or two posts talking about certain science and math questions that have come out directly from DAT Achiever. Is there anyone out there that can help me out on this? Thanking you guys in advance.

It's a guess: that might have come from a salesperson. ADA exams/questions must be fair. So, I doubt ADA copies DAT_ACHIEVER questions.

Thank you for your input, but I just can't find the thread, it's quite sometime ago with the question numbers for each sample tests listed there. Anybody ever remember the title of the thread? I want to at least have a chance to take a closer look at those questions. Thanks.
 
What follows is a post made by "peace2c" (who I believe is affiliated with dat achiever) on July 21st.


"Sciences in DAT Achiever are truly more difficult than any other test guide especially in Test 3, as many of the question structures have been so designed to cover as much details as possible in relation to syllabus outlined by the ADA. Each of the question attempted has'd Topic (Sub-Topic) assigned to it in the Detail Report. You should print this out to further guide you what to study more from your textbook and tally this with the answer explanations given. Maths shouldn't be that bad but again it varies on different individuals (Lots of practice will make it better if not perfect)

Real DAT questions noted by me appearing in DAT Achiever worth your attention:

Bio : Test 1 (Q2, 4 , & 7), Test 2 (Q11, 32, 37, & 39), Test 3 (Q2, 30, & 33)
Maths: Test 1 (Q34 & 37), Test 2 (Q5, 14, 17, & 38), Test 3 (Q34)

Kaplan's Review Notes alone do not comprehensively cover all you need to know for the DAT. There's no big deal if you can answer many of their questions in the practice tests since many of these have been based on what you've studied from the BB notes. All test guides should instead be wisely used to prompt you work harder and turn to your complete sources in the texts when needed.

Generally, to get 21-23, you should not be missing more than 10% of the questions in each section.

Schaum bio is good if you still have the time for it.

Let me know if you've any more questions to ask."
 
Hi mochafreak, I wanted to say "thank you" to you yesterday but too bad the SDN site was down. I believe that's the post I saw few weeks ago. Time's running out for me. Whatever sounds helpful I will grab for the moment till the race is over. As always, ppl from the SDN are always helpful and lovely. I'm indebted to you all. Bye and best wishes to your application this year.
 
There're probably some other questions of this kind from DAT Achiever not listed here yet. But users should always treat these as "boosters" since they can randomly be shuffled at the Prometric Center. Be primarily stuctured via your continued hardwork and consistent strategies still. Together with those questions likely to appear on your test day, you should get the DAT scored appeciably beyond the national mean.
 
I did a google search for "dat achiever", but it's bringing me back to the SDN forum. Anybody knows where to visit its website? 😕

I think questions appearing in the actual DAT from DAT Achiever must have been due to the fact that the DAT questions (estimated to be around 3 to 4 sets in total) are being recycled at the ADA's question bank. Chances for you to be seeing those questions (and perhaps several other more) depend largely on the likelihood (1/4 - 1/3) of getting the same set of questions the author sat for. Will be nice if you get it, but if not, you should still be able to do equivalently well for as long as this guide has consistently been making you equipped within the bounds of the ADA's syllabus.
