I started lightly studying in the beginning of June and when I actually signed up for my test date (around mid-July) I started cracking down. Everyone has their own different pace of studying but I think what really gets you going is that solid deadline. Materials I used:
Cliff's 3rd edition, Feralis notes, Kaplan Blue Book, DAT destroyer, Math destroyer, Topscore tests, Chad's videos, and DAT Bootcamp

PAT: DAT Bootcamp was amazing, I owe it to them for this high of a score. I never once scored above a 21 on it and I was shocked when I saw my score.

QR: Math destroyer and that's it! Practice on timing because I went all the way up to the last second for this portion.

RC: I didn't practice this portion a lot but I did go through 3 Bootcamp section tests and I thought they were pretty representative of the test.

Orgo & gChem: Chad's videos!!!! Supplemented with DAT destroyer and bootcamp. It's such a pain to go through this but I did the destroyer book twice (only ochem and gchem)

Bio: This definitely was the weakest point for me... Since I started out with a low science score in gchem and ochem, I focused on that more and did not study for this section as much as I should've... I read Cliff's and did DAT destroyer twice! This section is a toss up because it covers so much material.

Hope that helps guys! Thanks!!!!

@cwoo You have a good score on the AA. Anything above 20 will be good for you as long as your GPA is good. I think the QR and PAT are really great scores. Congrats! One question: did you do all 1-15 tests in Math Destroyer or did you only do some of them. How many times did you do them? When you worked on the Math destroyer with time and you ran out of time did you still continue doing the problems or did you stop and move on? Congrats again and good luck!
 
I went through the math destroyer tests 1-10 once and then again 1-5 a week before the test. I literally went up until the end on the last problem but the problems were a lot easier on the test than the math destroyer.
