PAT Panic

PAT Panic

The Perceptual Ability Test (PAT) is designed to test your spatial visualization skills, especially your ability to interpret two-dimensional representations of three-dimensional objects. These skills will be useful to you as a dentist as you construct a mental image of teeth from X-rays, deal with casts and fillings, and deal with other aspects of dentistry.

With our PAT Panic section, you can check out your skills against the toughest PAT questions you'll find on the DAT. Test yourself against every type of question you'll encounter—Keyholes, Top-Front-End, Angle Ranking, Hole Punching, Cube Counting, and Pattern Folding. And see if you have what it takes to beat the toughest part of the DAT.
