Is this the type of folds that people were mentioning when they took the test? I just saw this and feel like Crack DAT should have a separate portion for hole punching where they incorporate folds like these, it would be really helpful. This is the evolution of PAT as we are seeing it guys. Its gonna be a lot harder in the future.

Even though this fold seems complicated, I feel like the trickiest ones can be followed back. As long as you eye the symmetry going backward/unfolding, you can't be stumped. Don't fear the folds. I did not take the DAT but I feel like people may be exaggerating the difficulty of this section. There is a section on CDP, Test 3 I think, that has difficult folds. Don't be intimidated. There won't be too many that you can't manage, just tell yourself it is all doable!

not trying to be a smart ***** or anything but that fold isnt considered to be tough at all.... Atleast for me. These folds get MUCH harder. All they did there was fold that corner one more time.

As you go along with CDP you will see how hard they get, although im not sure if thats how the real PAT on the DAT has evolved.

And yes, i believe in the future it will be harder, but unfortunately the future is today. Its already harder then before.
 
I would say the DAT this year is right in between Crack DAT PAT and Kaplan. Mix of complicated, but then some no brainer ones.
 
I didn't post this image to ask help on it I am just asking if these are the 1/3 folds that people were talking about or are there more harder ones because I know I have seen more folds like this that are wayyy harder than this one. Its just not in my test bank that I need to go over. This one is easy as cake but might seem hard if you are not familiar with them.
