So I took the DAT back in January and didn't do to hot. I scored 16 AA, 15 TS, 17 PAT, 18 QR, 18 RC, 15 BIO, 17 GC, and 13 OC. I used Kaplan BB, Barron's, and AP Bio Cliff notes to study along with Achiever. I am retaking it June 30th and am applying this cycle so I really need to get my DAT score up. I work alot and go to school full time and I won't be able to take off to study 8 hours a day like some people on here. What are the best study materials that I could utilize? I already purchased Crack the PAT and was thinking about getting Dat Destroyer and Chad's Videos (Ochem and Gchem). Just to add my GPA is a 3.40.

Unless you have super memory, your schedule is not gonna cut it....all the materials you have and planning to get are all good. It's all gonna come down to how much time you spend studying and it's not looking all that good for ya

I took time of work to study for about three weeks and would strongly recommend that for this summer if you can.

BIO-DATqvault coupled with cliffs and alan's notes is good
CHEM-CHADS video and quizzes plus destroyer
PAT- crack that PAT
RC-I didn't do anything expect practice test
QR-Math destroyer is gold I wish I would have done all the test I think I could of got a 20 if I would have

practice tests-TOPSCORE and Acheiver (test)
ADA practice test is also good

That's what I used and I did ok.

Good luck you will kill it this time

CDP is a must for PAT.
CDR is great for reading IMO.
Math Destroyer for QR
And DAT Destroyer, Chad's Videos, Ochem as a 2nd language, Cliffs AP BIo for sciences

And Achiever, topscore pro and ada sample tests for practice.

You should be solid with those materials.

Check out my blog for a review I did for each one:

All materials you have ans want to get are great. However, destroyer can only help you if you put time working on it. If properly used, destroyer can bring your average up quite a bit, but you need to do more problems for every problem that you got wrong on the destroyer. This will take time, but you will walk into the test center very prepared. If you need more problems, Kaplan, and achiever has more practise, or you can use your textbooks. Good luck.
