All the best tips, with clear graphics, for mastering the Pattern folding section on your DAT PAT. In this video, you learn how to use a number of strategies in order to analyze cubes - a type of problem that has a shaded pattern on a regular prism. This includes learning how to understand how different maps (or nets) fold, analyzing the position of different faces in relation to one another, and analyzing the orientation of their patterns.

I’ve never heard of the DAT, but this is really helpful for the French airline pilot selection exams. Thanks!

I am still struggling with the pattern folding, I just don't see how it wraps around, especially with weird shapes, like when we have it twist around and switch orientations. Is it just something with more practice? Because I have watched this video at least 3 times and still get confused.

Hi! Have you worked through our level 1 question bank carefully? Usually it's helpful to practice and make sure you understand the level 1 problems, then slowly progress to the harder problems, making sure you read through and study the explanations as you go.

@14:29 Isn;t it that the on the 3, the dot that borders the 5, is not closest to 2, but fathest.

On the 2 dot face, the dot that sits closest to the 5 face - when you bring those edges (colored in blue) together - also sits closer to the 3 dot face. Does this help?

Good morning madam, I really have trouble with spatial ability,can I get to you online so you help me throughout this stuff?

Hello! Yes, you can create a free account at pat.eruditionprep.com, and you can upgrade your account from there for full access to our course. This course is specifically for students studying for the DAT, but it will help you improve your perceptual ability skills in general or for other exams if you work through the problems. Hope this helps!

If you're not studying for the DAT, let us know what you're using this video to prepare for and what other perceptual videos would be helpful! (DAT students are also welcome to comment on PAT vides that would be most helpful!)

@@DISPATCHERB Thanks for letting us know! We're not very familiar with the tsa exams but will look into them more now! I hope this video helps you with the cubes.

I think in example 3 the right answer should be C , I am not sure .

@eruditionpat 4 ай бұрын

Thank you for your response! If you're referring to the problem containing a face with a square in the center, we can eliminate Choice C as discussed in video. Or - if you look at the map - in relation to the face with the center square, you can see that each fully shaded face sits clockwise to either a half-shaded face or another fully shaded face. Choice C shows a fully shaded face sitting clockwise to a blank faces, which does not match the map. Hope this helps!

U said several times "turn ur head" but it dosent helpe because the eyes correct the shape directly.

@eruditionpat 6 ай бұрын

Thanks for letting us know! That's great - it sounds like you're manipulating the object well in your mind. :) Some students have a harder time seeing how things would change orientation when turned or rotated, and some of them find that rotating their head to change their perspective is helpful. However, if it works better for you to NOT rotate your head, you should keep doing what you're doing!
