Hey guys,

I just took my second topscore exam, and im still averaging a 290! =( It seems as if the difficulty increases as it goes from exam 1 to 2 to 3. I will be writing my OAT this upcoming saturday (dec 29) and I am crapping bricks! Has anyone taken the real OAT and the actual topscore exams? Am I a lost cause at this point or is scoring this low normal for the topscore exams? My strongest of the sections are biology, gchem and orgo and my weakest are physics and QR...I dont know why. If anyone has any experience from topscore that already took the OAT, I would be glad to hear from you b/c I need to know where I stand as of today and where I will be this saturday (ballpark). Thank you so much!

no, u shouldn't be scared! I also was scoring around 290 on topscore but scored 40+ points higher on the actual test. I do remember that it gets harder as u move from exam 1 to exams 2&3. I think that the practice test on the official oat website is the most similar to the actual test. You should be ok.... Good luck!!!

chem: 320
ochem: 330

my cum gpa is 3.01, i applied to SUNY,PCO,MCO and NOVA...

i dont even think i have a shot at any with these scores, and i studied for this test too, this is BS i know I am better than these scores and most of the advanced bio classes i took in college i got B+ and higher in them. Im just horrible at taking tests its rediculous.
