Feeling a little behind

So I take my DAT in ten days. I have been studying since the middle of May for on average three hours a day up until three weeks ago. Since then I have been hitting it hard going about 10-14 hrs a day. I am currently finishing up a Kaplan course. (I had never been on SDN before I signed up for that class or else I would have known there were much better alternatives) However, since I have been looking through various threads on here, I saw that Bootcamp and Destroyer were the way to go. Somebody had given me a copy of the 2014 Destroyer and I signed up for Bootcamp last Thursday. So after working with Kaplan for a little over a month and using that as my content review in a way, I am now pretty much just working with Bootcamp and trying to make it through Destroyer twice between now and test day. I also have read through Feralis notes and retained a lot from that.

My main areas of concern right now are QR and and calculations on gen chem. I feel like I have a good grasp of the other sections of the test. I am going to chug through Destroyer and Bootcamp's gen chem and QR problems until I really get a full grasp on everything. I also am planning on taking the 2009 practice test this Wednesday to see if there is anything else I need to go back over. I just want to get y'alls feedback on my preparation thus far and if going through the QR section of the 2014 Destroyer and Bootcamp is sufficient.

Any feedback is much appreciated.

Honestly if you don't feel like you were prepared enough solely through Kaplan, I would suggest paying to push the exam back to gain some more study time. That's totally my opinion but best of luck in whatever you choose to do!

I'm with @michelleyx143 there is no shame in pushing back your exam date if you don't feel prepared!
