My dat is in exactly two months and general chem and qr are my weak areas. What's the best way to thoroughly cover these subjects??

I would say the best way is to first familiarize yourself with the material (I would recommend Chad's Videos, especially for chem) and then keep practicing and reviewing the material with either practice tests or sample questions. For QR I suggest developing a problem solving mentality and knowing how to work through problems when given certain information, and this comes from practice as well. However I would take this all with a grain of salt given that I haven't taken my DAT yet (Tomorrow cannot be over quickly enough) but this is what helped raise my practice test scores in bootcamp

Watch both - do Mike's first and remember to pause and answer question thoroughly before watching the answer. Then do Chad's and watch at 1.5 speed or more if you can handle it and do the associated quizzes. I think Mike is a bit more in depth but chad has time saving tricks and better explanations for log estimations. The quizzes are also great.

for QR and gen chem --> watch chad's videos. do chad's quizzes as well to solidify what you learned. if you get a lot wrong, re-watch that video. do a lot of content review THEN start math destroyer and dat destroyer (GC section). you might want to consider geting GC destroyer. For destroyer, it is ok if you get a lot of questions wrong, the emphasis is on you learning how to do those types of problems.
