I have a 93 oldsmobile acheiva, and the floor boards are soaked with water. It started in the back seat floor on drivers side, and now goes to the front, and sometimes even the passenger front (when it's really saturated in back). It starts from the back tho. It has been raining A LOT, pretty much everyday. Where can this be coming from? I can't see it dripping from anywhere. Thanks

If it's wet in the back seat, it must be along a door jam as the back seats have no engine components that deliver water into that area.
I'd look along the door jam of the back driverside door or along the back of the front driver side door.
Usually the rubber seals are worn and water must be seaping in through these seals.

It sounds like a door gasket leaking, but I would check to be sure that the drain from the air conditioner is not stopped up. The pan will overflow and it could travel to the rear before you noticed it. If it's hot outside, it makes a lot of water.

Look under the hood, to see if the drains by each side by the windshield wipers are plugged. If the water that enters by the wipers cannot get away, it will seek an alternative route, perhaps into the interior of your car. Costs nothing to look.

Check the door and trunk rubber seals.
That is about the only way that water can get in.
If the panels are out of alignment it could also get in .
