Destroyer and Chad are enough for the lab questions. I believe I had 1 lab question but its very easy. If you know everything in Chad + destroyer , you are good to go.
 
the only lab stuff the DAT suppposedly tests on is

basic techniques, equipment, error analysis, safety and data analysis.

Its supposedly 2 out of the 30 questions. I doubt they will throw you something convoluted.

I'm sure you can figure out basic techniques/safety, I mean most of it is common sense. you mean I should pipet with my mouth. Safety goggles who needs those. you add acid etc.

same goes with equipment. you can logic it on. they won't ask like what cork size should I use with a 4x10 test tube. dat destroyer had one it was with using buret to deliver an exact amount.

data analysis could be titration curve, beers law plot. Here's the graph or whatever what does it tell you.

error analysis, dat destroyer had one of them. It was on accuracy and precision. they could ask you how pure something is but when it comes to purity it was more of an ochem thing for me.
