Do you guys thing the scores Topscore gives you are more or less accurate? I know the real test is curved...but i missed like 2 on gchem and it was a 23. Is that about right on the real test??? More generous than that maybe??? I hope....

I think ur score is great! When I bought my Top score program the dental student told me if your scoring in the 20's your scoring high to the DAT. I don't know how much that is true, Because I haven't taken the DAT yet and I haven't score that HIGH on the Top Score. But, still missing only TWO ... omg!👍
 
yea...anybody can do great on a practice...or crappy for that matter. as far as me missing 2...i actually missed more but a couple were TOTALLY stupid reading the question/answer wrong...that plays a big role too...

i don't think it really matters until you take the actual exam...dun dun dun! i was just wondering if that's about right for actual DAT scoring though....or whether it would be higher/lower...although i assume people that actually took the exam don't know how much they missed...if anybody has an idea..it'd be a great to know!

Totally agree.... All the practice are not great indicators.... I actually scored 5-6 points below for PAT and 5 point lower for QR.... Practice test and real test totally different atmosphere.... Just my thought...
 
Personally, I scored a lot higher on most sections of the actual DAT than on the practice... but I think it varies with each person, and depends somewhat on your test-taking skills. Organic was definitely a lot easier on the real thing than on any practice test i took. Gen Chem was more straightforward. Bio- a little trickier than the rest, but nothing too hard.
