Hi I have a question about 11:33 How come you can connect the 1 dotted square with the top of the 2 dotted square and with the top of the 5 dotted square? Wouldn't that break the rule of not being able to pair up squares that are 180 degrees?
Pairing the tops of the 2-dot square and 5-dot square together would break the rule of 180 degrees, those two sides cannot touch each other. However, what you are referring in 11:33 is an entirely different concept. Connecting the 1-dot square to the top of the 2-dot and 5-dot squares is a natural extension of the side pairing technique. Once you pair up all of the corners (blue lines), you then pair up the next available sides (orange lines) on either end of those paired corners and essentially "rainbow" out from there until all sides are matched with another side. Every side HAS to have a side it connects with, otherwise you wouldn't have an intact 3D object. This is shown in the solution at 13:07.
Thank you so much for this video, I was just wondering if this is the most up to date info on pattern folding, will the current dat shift much more than this
Hello! thank you so much for these videos! they are helping me so much. I have a question, at @11:27 of the video, when doing the side pairing on the outer cubes, how do we know that cube '1' shares with '5' . why does cube face '6' not share with either cube face '5' or '2'?
Imagine you are rotating the square number 4 with the square number 6 and 1 attached to it. Then you will have squares 5,2,4,6 in a straight line with square 1 at 90degree from them, you can then role the square 1 until it reach the corner with 5 and 2.
I had to do this for my dental hygiene entrance exam. I just ripped up pieces of paper to make the shapes. Is that cheating? Would coloring be cheating?
I got confused at 8:04. Update: I have moved past my confusion at this point in the video. I am amazed that some people can immediately "see" the patterns.
I'm glad you worked through your confusion! Remember these PAT games require lots of repetition, and with practice you can get better and better at seeing patterns.
so in 11:22 why 1 "right side" not sharing with 5 instead and 1 "down side" not sharing with 2 instead? I mean here there is no clear rule to follow like the 90 degree rule right? DO not get that ?
Thank that was helpful but on 15:40 you said shaded side cannot be down one the right side in A and B so they cannot be correct. But this can be the hiddden left side instead that we cannot see in the 4 figures right?
I'm applying for a test to be a tso, and im not sure what new changes have been added. I've been suggested to brush up on spatial perception; my test is tomorrow!
@@cruiser_b9779 the test is really easy .. this is the only part you would need to study .. I kinda guessed on this part & still passed .. you’ll do great, Good luck

Hi, My test is online (meaning on the computer) at the prometric centre. Given I wont be able to write anything down (time crunch) and there's no printed out copy of the shapes to do side pairing, any tips on How I can do it?

Apparently, this is a type of intelligence (spatial reasoning) that is commonly overlooked in children. These questions are easy for me as I'm able to rotate the objects mentally. In school I was uninspired and uninterested in math until I took physics. I was suddenly magically good at a subject I never been exposed to, and this was late in high school. The nature of physics magically made the math intelligible. I ended up going to school for Engineering and only found the math heavy classes to be difficult. Basically, what I want to say is that a kid with this type of intelligence needs to be exposed to physics, and the true nature of math (not the BS taught in schools) as early as possible. It might change their lives. God Bless.
Dentist here. If you’re reading this, you’ll make it one day. I was once studying for this and struggled. Keep grinding.
Thank you, I needed to hear that! I'll keep faith that it'll happen one day, and I won't give up! :)
That's right! Keep the faith and make it happen 💪🏼
dont think ill ever make it, im already struggling with ochem and have a midterm soon :(
Keep grinding, but dont grind your teeth!
@@redeyeknight5964 I grind my teeth too :D
You explained this very well. I'm not a dental student but this really helped with my airline psychometric assessments. Cheers
Right on! Glad you found the video helpful 😊

Yes, I have this same question. It doesn't make sense.

Side pairing tip fantastic. Thank you.
Great! I’m glad it was helpful 😁
Without your fantastic explanation, I think this test would be much more suffering. Thank you so much !
Glad to hear that my explanations are helping you! 😊
You explain this so well. Its easy for me now :) thanks for the help
Happy to help!
Your videos really helped me on my tests. Thank you.
I am so glad to hear that! You’re very welcome 😊

Yes it is! This is up to date with the most recent DAT.

during the exam? you really wouldn't have enough time on the DAT to build the shapes I don't think. I don't know about colouring
Is that exam hard?

very helpful. Tysm!

Is it me or are boosters Pat questions harder
I will be having my admission test for dental on Wed, but I am still having a hard time here. 🥺🥺🥺
15:57 how is the right side referencing that shape if in order to look at from the dark perspective we'd have to flip the thing
i have the same question, i hope he will answer it
Thank you so much
You’re welcome! 😊
How did you solve the first one , please
Hey please make videos on NBDE Part 1 high yield topics too.. that would be a great help for us.
Thanks

I was thinking too hard
@8:55 the answer C works as well, how do you explain working around this
9 months later, C still doesn't work.
Does it have another name like a spatial relationship?
Yes, that is an appropriate name to describe this kind of test!
god explanation,
Thank you for watching! 😊
i think the last part is wrong
... the answer i know is letter a but the side that has black color make it inverted
Y d is wrong?
who knew hallucinations were helpful my ghost friend helped me
I think i'm the only one that doesnt get it lol, i'll just try harder
You're not the only one, trust me. This is one of, if not the hardest section on the PAT. Keep at it!
