I've been studying for the DAT for many months. Though, it seems that no matter how much I'm studying I still can't for the life of me improve my scores. It's not okay how little I'm improving for how much I've been studying. I frequent this forum a lot to get advice, but to no avail.

My materials: Destroyer, math destroyer, Chad's vids, Cliffs AP Bio, Ferallis notes.

It seems that most people here only need to study 4 months max to get 21+ scores, and I'm well past 4 months studying 5+ hours a day. I've heard of people not being able to get into dental/med school because no matter how much they studied, they still couldn't get a high DAT/Mcat score. I'm afraid I might be one of those people...
 
what are you using for test prep? like for multiple choice besides destroyer.

I got a 15 on a practice test for gen chem the week before my DAT. I ended up with a 21 in gen chem on the actual exam. Just keep at it.
 
i guess that you can study as much as you want - but unless you do PRACTICE PROBLEMS, your scores will not improve. You have to do as many practice problems as possible.
 
It seems like you only have Destroyer as your only source of practice problems. Are you evaluating yourself using destroyer? If yes, Destroyer is much harder and is not a good reflection of your actual DAT score. Try Bootcamp.
