I have been using bootcamp to prepare for my exam but I don't really have time for destroyer. I understand every thing on bootcamp when it comes to GC,OC, BIO, and QR. My first tests were a little rough but I have been using bootcamp as more of a study tool rather than to test myself. I am a little nervous as this is my primary study tool, but I have a good understanding of everything on there. Will this be enough for my DAT?

I personally think it is ok. I studied for the bio section almost entirely off the answers of the practice tests on BC lol.
 
I also think you're fine. BC ended up being my primary resource too. I just couldn't get into the others as much because of the format. I ended up getting 22 across the board with 20 on Bio being my lowest score.

What did you end up scoring for bio?
20. I basically got around what sobertiger above got too, with a 23 AA and 22 PAT or around there. I only supplemented my learning with some Kaplan practice questions and tests and my own knowledge.

I thought Bootcamp was was very representative of all the sections, especially QR and the chemistries. For Bio I would recommend practicing with Destroyer if you have time and/or haven't taken many upper level bio classes, because on the real test it was a VERY random section. I got ~ 4 questions on concepts not covered on Bootcamp or Feralis's notes at all. If you only practice with Bootcamp and know how to do those problems, you'll prob score 20+. If you want to get 22+ on Bio, it would be a good idea to do Destroyer.
 
The full length tests are very important for learning test taking strategies, and learning what sections you are quicker and slower in, so make sure to do those. Make sure to study the answers for all tests, and bookmark the ones you dont understand and review them often. Best of luck.

Yup. I highly recommend doing Destroyer. This is solid advice.
