Can only use on 1 PC, 1 install.

DAT achiever has a free trial, you can try it out. Pretty sure their website says you can install on a mac.
Topscore, dno.

I believe undergradGuy7 is correct... achiever has a mac version. Topscore definitely does not (at least they didn't in the fall when I bought mine). I have a bootcamp partition installed on mine with XP on it and I was able to use it. My experience was that Topscore was more than enough, so I would go with it and do without achiever.

I used achiever and topscore on my mac. I have VM Fusion running windows 7, I installed topscore on that and it worked great. Achiever also worked well on the mac side, get both if you feel you need the practice. The achiever interface is pretty much identical to the real DAT so you'll feel right at home after taking a few achiever tests (although they are much harder!).

I'm pretty sure once you buy VM Fusion there is an option to load from your bootcamp partition. I would probably try running topscore using bootcamp before paying for Fusion just to see if you can save yourself some $$. Download the topscore software from their website but DON'T buy the product code yet. Wait to see if everything loads fine from the bootcamp side, and if so, then buy an unlock code and take some tests!
