Hey guys,

I changed my date and my exam is now in June, and I want to use the extra time to work on my weaker sections like the RC and PAT. However, I am a little conflicted on how to use the Bootcamp to its full potential, so I don't end up getting the same passages on my last 5 FL that I will take. BC has 10 exams for RC and I really want to use them, but if they end up showing on the FL then I won't get the "good practice" and the right score....I guess that applies for all the sections.

Also, I am killing the TFE and Keyhole generators, but when I take the BC section test I don't score as well...Is that normal? I am scoring around 19....should I keep using the generator?

Lastly, when you guys go over the destroyer (especially Bio) how long did it take you....it takes me forever because I take notes on what I got wrong and then go over my chapter outlines too...is that an overkill?
 
BC is by far the closest thing(very close) to the real exam. If you are scoring low on the full length, then it may be a very close indicator on test day. Don't rely on generator scoring, its there for your practice and understanding the basic idea. Yes, keep using the generator every day.

I suggest you get datGenius and work through their full length once. Then use BC for your real practice. Also Qvault Bio is excellent.

Well, near exam dates, I was doing destroyer for the 2nd or 3rd time according to Ari's Schedule, so I was pretty quick at it. I was taking notes initially when I was studying.
You have time, your aim should be to get a min of 20's on all BC exams.
 
I think BC is not a good practice material in the sense that it is your main study material. I think it's a good 'predictor material' in that you should be using DAT destroyer and datGenius and a ton of other resources and take BC tests and an indicator of where you are.
 
I think stand alone exams #1-5 are used in the full lengths.

I took the DAT before ARI updated it with new shlt. But basically what I did was I used exams #6-10 as standalone exams for practice (still timed though) and then saved #1-5 for my full lengths
