I dunno about kaplan stuffs.... but I was scoring in the 80s% in destroyer orgo before my test... ended up with 21 orgo

Just learn from your mistakes with Kaplan, make sure you underestand every mistake thoroughly, watch, your gonna end up with a 30 in orgo lol
 
very surprising, i have yet to do the kaplan stuff but i always assumed destroyer was more difficult.
 
People definitely don't give Kaplan enough credit. I would never call their stuff "easy" having gone through all of the subject tests twice...

I did Destroyer also, like you, and knew it pretty well and then got 50% or so on my 1st Kaplan Orgo subject test. They got easier after that. Kaplan is just tricky. It is good to learn from but definitely (from what I've read) not a diagnostic to base what your real score will be on. Just LEARN every little thing. Good luck! 2 weeks till my D-day :O!
 
It was almost exactly the opposite for me! I was doing well with Kaplan first but but then destroyer rocked my world. I think it's just getting used to the questions being asked in a different way. If you're doing that well on destroyer I think you'll be just fine when test day rolls around. Good luck!
