Hi, I'm fairly new to these forums, and Im not sure if there has already been a post about this but here it goes;

I was wondering how the real OAT, which I have in a week, compares to the Kaplan exam and the ADA.org one?

I did one of kaplans practice and got bio 360, orgo 390, chem 310, phys 300, math 330, reading 350

the sample ada i got : bio 390, orgo 360, chem 340, phys 320, math 390, rc (1 passage) 380

-im pretty weak in the chem/physics areas as seen in my scores, but regardless, the two score sets don't seem to agree with one another...which one is the real oat more like? (yes I know the ada.org one is from the oat itself, but still XD, just making sure); Ive heard alot of things like bio being really random, and physics being alot of optics; neither of which I have encountered thus far.

Thanks!
 
OAT exam is similar to kaplans practice exam. Kaplan practice exam is way harder than OAT. You will do well. How are you preparing for it?
 
read the kaplan DAT book, and did the kaplan oat book q's as well as oat destroyer...on and off for this past school term. I really started focusing more on it the last month or so, my OAT is this saturday.

So you're saying the ada.org isnt as comparable to the real thing?
 
Yes. I have a month to study and I don't know how to prepare for biology? For the rest I will do practice problems from the oat destroyer.
