Hello

I am a poor college student who is not positive on which material to buy.

so far I have
1)Cliff Bio
2)Chad video (Finished Ochem, GenChem, and finishing QR section now)
3)DAT destroyer/Math destroyer

I am debating on what would be my next material but I can't buy all
Crack DAT PAT, Achiever, Topscores, QValute.

To be honest, CDP...is it worth $100?
I can pretty much buy Achiever and Topscore with $100 + $40 with ~5-6 full length tests on every section.


Again, I am not expert on any of these and I wish I have money to buy them all but I don't.
So can you please pleas give me a good list of study material I can use but not expensive?
I really can't buy them all....

Thank you.

I used all the materials you listed above except achiever. I only did one test on topscore(big mistake). IMHO achiever is unnecessary. For qvault, I only bought the bio section and I feel that their questions are very similar ( I averaged an 18 and got an 18 in bio).

I got a 19aa/ts with all of those materials. I used CDP PAT and never scored above an 18 and got an 18 on the real test.

good luck.

do not waste your money on achiever NOR topscore. Both are useless. Crack dat PAT is a must and datqvault is a good review of sections.
 
Get CDP. You may think the prices for some of these materials is high, but if you think about it, you will save $400 by not having to retake the exam. Potential to save about 2 grand if you don't have to apply more than once.
 
CDP is worth it, as is Barron's AP Bio. It's only 10 bucks or so on amazon and is a much easier read than Cliff's.
