Hey guys:
i wanted to know besides Kaplan Math practice which i heard is not like what we see on real DAT, where else i should be looking for some practice problems?
I have taken DAT back in Oct. are about 20-23 word problems out of the 40 questions. this was so frustrating, so i wanted to if any of you know about a good resource other than Kaplan, Destroyer (the MATH is nothing like Destroyer), and the softwares?
It seems like that DAT MATH is concentrating on WORD PROBLEMS a lot.

Click on this link and use it as your guide to study:
http://www.ada.org/prof/ed/testing/d...ifications.pdf

There are 10 word problems on various stuff. I also suggest Barron's book for math practice. Despite of some errors, they offer different types of problems than Kaplan (more like the DAT types).

A Great book, which I have mentioned on these treads before, is Rapid Math: Tips and Tricks. Look on Amazon.

Destroyer should be more than enough practice. That's basically all I used. I got a 22 in QR, although I thought the questions were pretty easy except for one problem....so I was expecting a higher score.....

Besides the softwares, I'd also practice with GRE books and even SAT ones
