I have just under 2 weeks left and still have not done achiever and have just started destroyer. I've gone through blue book, topscore, and some kaplan full and section tests...

what is the best way to use the time that I have left? I thought I could go through destroyer so much faster but it's detailed so writing out the explanations and questions (how i absorbed stuff best i think) is taking so long! i think i could spend 2 weeks just doing this book with this method.

:scared:What is the best way to use my last <2 weeks? How did you guys go through destroyer? make outlines? just do problems over and over? Are all of achiever sections worth going through, esp reading?

THANKS 🙂
 
Hey, I have couple of weeks left to, and I started destroyer last week. I do about 10 problems each as a quiz, then go through the answers and making a guideline/notes on Word. As soon as im done with about 80 problems, I re-do them as a test and see if I can remember why the answer is correct rather than just picking an answer because I memorized it. I am going to be done with destroyer by this weekend and going to start achiever. Have you used achiever and if you have, what do you honestly think about it?? Thanks!
 
if you feel like you know the basics from kaplan blue book. work the destroyer for two weeks. don't just memorize solutions but understand all the material. i would put achiever second to going over destroyer and fully understanding it.
 
Reading this makes me feel so much better because i was getting frustrated with myself since it took me 3 days to go over G chem part of Destroyer.2 days for Orgo and 1 day Bio. But G.Chem is my weakest science section so i suppose i should not be hard on myself.
For G.chem i worked out all the problems over n over until i could do them in my sleep.
I take the exam first week of Aug ......looking at 4th for now...
tomorrow i start on QR .
I havent purchased achiever- wondering how long it will take to receive the liberation key.Anyone have an idea?
 
I just purchased achiever yesterday, and called them right away and got the key over the phone in a few mins.
 
hey, thanks for the responses.🙂 I haven't done any achiever yet...just kaplan and topscore but I feel like I have a really strong foundation or at least I thought so until I started doing destroyer all those little details are getting me but its' better to fine tune that stuff now then before the test.

I was trying to leave enough time to go over achiever and topscore tests at least twice. If you guys are saying destroyer is more worth the time then maybe I'll spend more days on it and not worry about trying to do topscore and achiver twice? How many times do you guys, who have successfully completed DATs or done really well on practice tests, gone through destroyer? I'm trying to understand and not memorize answers so it's just taking a lot longer then I thought, still working on bio section :scared:

good luck to everyone still studying :luck:
