18TS should be 70 to 75 out of a 100 according to kaplan. i have seen scores add up to 65 or 68 and they end up with 18TS.
what is the % do we need to get 19TS?

There's no set percentage of questions you need to get correct in order to get an 18. The grading scale changes depending on how everyone else did on the exam.

For those of you that have taken the DAT, I know u really dont know what % of problems you got right, but did u feel the scoring on the actual DAT was more generous than practice tests in kaplan and topscore?

I never did Topscore, but I feel the Kaplan tests were pretty close to the real thing.

The test was by far harder than Kaplan and Topscore but was by far more generous for the grade.

So Kaplan and Topscore are good indicators of scores +/- 2
