Top-front-end strategy: Interpreting complex objects | Perceptual Ability Test | DAT PAT

How do you handle complex objects on the Top-front-end section on your PAT? In this video, you learn how to use a number of strategies in order to analyze objects with different cutouts and protruding features - this includes eliminating incorrect answers by counting edges, comparing the relative position of features, and focusing on one feature at a time to find the correct choice fast.

    This is great when we have loads of time but the toughest part of the PAT is timing. I know for me TFE is my hardest section so on the test is it okay to skip the section and move on to section that I am better at or will I not have time at the end.

    Hi! We actually have an article on PAT timing here that we will likely make into a video soon - eruditionprep.com/dat/pat/resources/timing-on-the-dat-perceptual-ability-test. If there is a section of the exam that takes a lot of your time, we do actually recommend skipping this section and coming back to it on your end, so you don't have to rush in other areas and miss out on getting easier problems correct.

    Is this a generator or is there a limited amount of problems?

    Hello! If you're asking if we use problem generators on our course, we do not, as we feel that this would sacrifice the quality of our problems and explanations, and our problems' similarity to the real exam. We have around 1000 practice problems on our course, which were carefully analyzed to cover many types and subtypes of problems that come up on the real exam. We plan will continue to add more, but we will not be using generators to introduce 1000s at once, as we don't believe this will create a very efficient and effective PAT study experience. Thank you!
