So, I just finished my first BC science and scores 24, 20, 21 for Bio, GC and OC. But I felt the exams were so much easier than most of the other practice material. l that I have been using CD Science, Destroyer and Qvault Bio. Are exams 2-5 harder? Is BC science representative of real DAT? Thanks for your insight 🙂
 
I only have experience with Destroyer, but Destroyer is supposed to be more difficult than the actual exam. Destroyer should be used as a resource to help you learn the material that will be on the DAT. It is not representative of the actual test.

This is why DAT Bootcamp appears to be easier to you. I would say that Bootcamp is pretty representative of the actual exam. Those scores look pretty good. Make sure to review your answers carefully and then take the rest of the Bootcamp exams. In general the exams are of the same difficulty, but this obviously varies from person to person. Bootcamp is a great resource and I found it to be most representative to the actual DAT.
 
DAT Destroyer will help people who want to get 23 and above. The questions are tough, but that is what you need to practice if you want to stay ahead of the competition. DAT is getting tougher. If you practice only light questions, you may get 19-21, which is an average score. However, if you want to stay above average, you need to start doing tougher problems. Destroyer, CrackDAT and Qvault have some good tough problems.
 
I agree with biomolecmed. Destroyer is a great prep. Bootcamp is good no doubt, but expose yourself to as much as possible to do well. My scores were pretty accurate with bootcamp compared to the real thing, but there are so many random problems on the real DAT Biology that you will scratch your head and say WT*.
