I just took datqvault orgo test #1 and scored 25.
it seems like these questions are pretty easy compare to destroyer.
so I am wondering if real dat is comparable to the qvault..

any facts or opinions???
 
yes, the first one is really easy. but as you go on i think they get a little harder. i was similar and scored a 24 on the first one. some are easier than others but in general they are good review. often ranks acids and bases which is nice practice. one thing it does get you used to, is do rxn by the "names" rather than the "structures" in usually a couple of the problems per test. kind of a pain, but i guess it will prepare you. not sure how it is on the actual DAT.
 
Do you recommend on paying the datQVAULT for all of sections? I am debating between all the sections or just the biology section.
 
They must have changed the O-chem section since they opened it to beta users in December because it was way harder than destroyer back then. Getting an 18 on it was quite an accomplishment then, but I suppose the took our feedback into account and adjusted the difficulty.

what did u guys get on the orgo sections after the first one? and did u take any other practice tests etc for comparison? i only got a 20 on the first orgo so u guys got me concerned :-/..i know i made 2-3 stupid mistakes but i also got lucky with like 2... also any idea what the weird format of reagents is in some of the questions? i just posted a thread asking about it
