CRAP....All I am using to practice on is Destroyer and I cant crack more than 20 questions right in a 30 questions section chosen at random and done under timed 30 minute conditions. I have 4 weeks to go and am going crazy.

I think Ochem Destroyer and Ochem on the DAT is very similar in terms of difficulty.

You still have a month; just keep going over them and try to understand the underlying concepts of each problem so that you will be able to solve similar questions on DAT...

I would also try DAT qVault and Orgo Odyssey for more exposure to questions that they can throw at you...

I suggest reviewing the concepts for every problem that you got wrong in Destroyer. You might just need to brush up on some concepts before diving into the problem solving. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Just keep a list of the topics you arent doing well in and review those concepts as recommended above. Make sure you also understand the explanations, don't just memorize answers!

first of all, DAT destroyer is NOT meant to be used as a testable time'd tool... it is not. Its designed to trip you (purposely) so you can learn from mistakes.

majority of folks whom start destroyer problems (myself included) get DESTROYED the first time through it (I couldn't even answer 50% right on GC & Orgo).... it makes you feel like you know nothing.
