Hello everyone,

I am planning to take the DAT in 3 months (mid august) and will start to study in a month (after finals and my knee surgery). So I ll have about 9-10 weeks to study (about 6-7 hrs a day). These are the materials that I am considering to get/use:

1. Kaplan BB 08-09/09-010 (which one?!!)
2. Acheiver
3. Destroyer
4. AP Bio Cliff notes (already have it)
5. Campbell biology study guide (already have it)
6. Topscore (possibly, if time allows)
7. Crack the PAT and possibly Math
8. NewYork Times

Here is my question:
-Which one of these books should I begin with and which book does a best job one any specifc section/ subject?
- where do I get them and how much is a good price to pay for them? Does the edition/ year really matters?

Any other books that you may recommand using?. Aslo, If any of the indicated books above is waste of time, please point that out as well.

Thanks in Advance,

Looks good. I only used topscore and achiever for the sciences but I felt like for those sections topscore is way way better. Achiever is so much harder than the real thing it's pretty much worthless in my opinion. Topscore is also harder than the real thing but it's not as bad...

Thanks so much for the advice.. I ll try to do them last just in case I run out of time.
 
can somebody tell me which one to start off my studying with and leave which one for last?
