Why practise before the DAA?

It sets your career options

Your section scores decide which trades and branches you can apply for. A better result means more choice.

It's fast and unforgiving

Every section is tightly timed with no calculator. Familiarity with the format is half the battle.

You only sit it now and then

Re-sits usually mean a waiting period. It's worth walking in fully prepared the first time.
