Hi everybody!
My test is tomorrow. I don't know if anyone's read my other thread asking for advice, but basically I took it once and my scores were

Bio 18
Gchem 21
Ochem 19
(TS)-19
PAT 18
RC 21
QR 18
AA: 19
I ONLY used kaplan to study the first time around

My goal is to get AT LEAST a 22 tomorrow, with a 22 on PAT too. I really think I can do it..

I've taken 6 full lengths (3 achiever/3 topscore) and have done pretty well.
topscore 1: AA 18, TS 17, PAT 20
topscore 2: AA 19, TS 19, PAT 21
topscore 3: AA 19, TS, 18, PAT 20
(achievers were a bit harder.. and by a bit I mean a ton)
achiever 1: AA 19, TS 17, PAT 17 😱
achiever 2: AA 18, TS 16, PAT 18
achiever 3: AA 20, TS 19, PAT 17

crackDATPAT
1: 21
2: 18
3: 18
4: 17
5: 22
6: 22
7: 19
8: 21
9: 23
10: taking later today

These crackdatpat scores are all over! I have been working hard on improving keyhole/front top end which I struggled with before.. and recently I've been finding ANGLES have gotten tough for me-- does that make sense? I really don't have a technique for angles.. any input on this?

Also today as I've been lightly reviewing I saw some posts about some piano test or something.. I have no idea what this even means and I don't know which version I had the first time so I have no clue how people know.. I thought each section was unique and there were random questions drawn from a bank of thousands.. SO CONFUSED!

I'm much more confident going into the test this time, but I've found this site to have really nice people who have great input.. so any last words?! To the people who got the scores I want- Do you think my practice tests are consistent with mine? I know that achiever has big disclaimers about the tests being harder than the real thing.. which I totally agree with. Any retakers have advice on what to do differently second time around?

Let you guys know how I do tomorrow!

ps- Be honest.. but don't freak me out ok? haha
 
ps in that last paragraph I meant
to the people who got the scores I want- are my practice tests scores comparable to YOURS haha (sorry.. brain moving faster than I can type)
 
I read a post about angles yesterday. It said to go on your instinct. Pick the choice within 5 seconds. I was struggling with angles before (7-8 out of 15) Now I am getting 11-13 on angles. Try it out, it works! Good luck, you will kill the test.

I am getting same AA on topscore, my exam is on 29th
 
I ll bet you ll get a 22 on PAT.. Mine is tomorrow too.. there is 7-8 ppl on SDN taking it tomorrow.. good luck to us👍
 
Judging by your topscore scores, a 22AA is going to be tough but definitely doable. Keep in mind that although most score better in the science sections, their QR usually comes out lower which brings the AA down.

Not saying you can't do it, just be focused! Good luck!
 
Focus on your PAT!
You can't do much for sciences now. You're done and set!

You wanna stand out with PATs. Seems like you're on the borderline with it, so practice the inidividual sections: angles, holepunch, etc. Don't aim for anything on PAT. Just be calm and do your best. Don't go in with extra pressure that you gotta ace it. You will if you remain calm and make haste!

Goodluck!
 
My sciences went up 3-5 points each, and though that is not the norm, it could happen again for you so don't get too discouraged or overconfident from practice scores.
