Hi,
I have a question for anyone who did well on the DAT. The Kaplan book does not come with any practice questions and I do not know how you could possibly learn general chemistry or orgo by reading about it. I realize it comes with 2 practice tests but that is not enough for what... 800 pages of material. What are the 2 practice tests going to have, a couple questions for each topic? Does anyone know of good practice questions to go along with the kaplan book (for chem and orgo)?

What about Examkrackers 1001 Questions in MCAT Chemistry? Has anyone used this, was it useful for the DAT or is it too different?

I was planing on using the DAT destroyer and going along with that as I read through the kaplan book, is this a good strategy or are the destroyer questions too difficult to try as you are reviewing the material for the first time.

Does anyone else know of good sources of practice questions, I wanted to save the practice tests until I was actually able to complete them (after I have reviewed all the material)?

thanks👍

I personally found that doing the Destroyer problems was pretty helpful because their explanations of how to solve the problem helps solidify the concepts a little more. Achiever is a good source of practice questions too.

DEFINITELY invest in Top Score. The problems, in my opinion, were very representative of what you might encounter, difficulty-wise, on the DAT. Achiever is also a nice study tool because it uncovers a lot of the subtleties in the material that prompt you to study even more. You shouldn't let lower scores on Achiever get you down, though. I also really liked Destroyer for the O-Chem practice, specifically. The reactions and road maps were really great study tools.
