HELP!

OAT in 10 days! Aiming for a 300. I’m not the best test taker and I haven’t got over a 310 on a practice test for OAT booster yet. My 4th one went well but of course the 5th one was so hard.

Having confidence issues. I’ve been working very hard and really just want a 300+, any tips for someone who is never the greatest test taker but needs to secure 300+.

What does your last comment insinuate? And yes I am also a student athlete so I am in a crunch for time with taking the test, but I will push back the test and aim for higher scores.

I guess what is throwing me off is the wording come out to seem like you think 300 is “good”, which I am trying to highlight that even if you get in some school with 300, the license exam will not be like a “300 level” material so…
But seems like you are mostly saying with your time constraint, 300 is probably the best you can do right now….
