What book or software is best to practice with (closest to real DAT) for the reading comprehension section of the DAT?

I heard about crack dat reading but not sure if it resembes real DAT reading section. For those who used it, how helpful was it? What else is out there to use?

Is the real thing much easier than Crack the DAT?

I took the DAT last week. I believe Crack DAT reading is great for practice. I would definitely supplement it with DAT Bootcamp reading as well, as the passages in BC are a little bit more trickier to read, and can prepare you if you get a hard passage.

It was most similar to crack DAT reading for me. With a little bit more tone questions and math questions here and there.

Which passages are easier the BC CDR or Qvault?

I liked Qvault a lot.
Didn't use the CDR.

Personally, the RC was one of the easier sections for me. Ended with a 22 on it, but it wasn't like horrific. The passages were easy to read, and I was able to finish with 12ish minutes to spare and recheck answers.

I think using Qvault will be perfect
