I’m giving my DAT next month, I have little over 3 weeks left to prepare. I finished the Kaplan review and wanted some practice specially for the PAT and QR sections. Do you think the DAT bootcamp is better or DAT destroyer? I can not afford both so I’ll have to choose one. Which one do you think is more helpful?
 
Hi! I just took the DAT this morning and was pleased with my scores. DAT Destroyer is definitely the way to go. If you haven't already, join the FB group here! 2019 Official DAT Destroyer and OAT Destroyer Study Group
Dr. Romano and Nancy are great! Definitely wish I used the vids (find their playlists under "Nancy Steen") earlier. What I found most helpful was watching the vids thru (yes, I went through hundreds of videos) and then sat down to do hours of questions from the Destroyer.
In regards to financing my study plan, I had similar concerns as you when I started about 1.5 mos ago, so I can understand and wanna help a fellow predent out!

I managed to do every question and exam on Bootcamp in under 3 weeks. If you have the time to study for at least 6-8 hours in a day, then I would say Bootcamp is worth it. It's a great simulator for the actual exam. If you don't, then I would get Destroyer. If you are only looking for QR and PAT practice, I would get Math Destroyer (2017 or later version) and a subscription for PATBooster.
 
The Math Destroyer is great! If you do that and the PAT Booster you will spend the least. In terms of QR, I think you really only need either Math Destroyer or BC, not both. If you're good for the other sections, keep in mind that BC is very expensive. But BC is great if you also want more practice in the other sections.
 
In your case, probably neither... Bootcamp is like $500. A good resource, but definitely not worth the money if you're only using it for 3 weeks. Math destroyer might be worth it if you can buy a secondhand copy for less than $100. Also Orgoman's math playlist online is free on youtube.
If you need more PAT practice, buy a subscription for PAT Booster. It was $60 when I bought it.
That’s why I was worried because I don’t have much time. I’m weakest in Math and I keep getting majority of my questions wrong. Do you think Math Destroyer is the best option for me?
