DocDocWhosThere Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Is it possible to get 0/30 on the DAT carving portion? I ran out of time and only had like 5 minutes to complete one of the features, the slants were very rough but measurements were alright. Would that be considered a failure?

I looked up the stats for last year when I wrote and about 6 people got 0/30. But that could be because they botch carved their soap, I wouldn't worry under your circumstances.

Thank you for your response. So, a couple of rough surfaces on one of the features would not be considered a failure (0/30)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fakedoctor Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 dont you get a zero if you break the soap? I'm not really sure I didnt take that section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strato Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 Don't worry, what you described is definitely not a zero. Each third of the soap should be marked individually, so at worst you get a zero on that end as long as the rest of your soap is correct. But if your measurements are good that's 3 points already. You can look on the CDA MDT patterns for the detailed rubric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will get at least 20/30 if you carved correctly the measurements and the slants are acceptable (less than 10 degree). You will certainly not get a 20/30 just by having correct measurements Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleanup Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 I never practiced soap carving. Walked into the test and poked the soap with the blade for a few minutes and I got an 11/30. I think you'll be ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
