does this mean my real DAT score is gonna suck? Also I spend like 45 minutes to 1 hour.

I do like sets of 30 questions. The first few sets I was getting 40-50%.
 
if its ur first time thru the book, youre doing better than most so just keep cracking at it...first times rough...second times semi rough but not nearly as bad and 3rd times a breeze...im on my 4th and final time now- i do 62oc, 65gc, 105bio, 39qr per day ...each set takes about 40 minutes now and get 1, maybe 2 wrong per section lol starting to remember a lot of them too though but i try to work it out fully so im still learning and retaining from them

Yeah. Sometimes I remembered the questions exactly that I already knew the answer before reading the questions fully. I am on number 180 something. Do you think the real DAT is gonna be a bit easier? I feel like a lot of the questions on the destroyer are trying to trick you NOT on the question itself but on the answer choices lmao.

Your doing good then. I thought the same thing I only went through one time and was getting around 50 percent right. Just make sure you figure out why you got questions wrong. I ended up with a 21 gen chem and 23 ochem.

Destroyer is good practice for learning and understanding but it is much more difficult than the real things.

Good luck

Hey. Thanks I feel much better now lmao. But honestly without chad I would have probably gotten 20-30% correct. Also were there lots of questions where you had to do some heavy estimation?

i agree with ^^ except that i wouldn't suggest you go through it more than 3 times. destroyer is overkill, and it is not necessary to know everything covered in it to do well on the DAT. it's good practice, nonetheless.
around 60-70% correct is very good for your first run through. keep it up!

Thanks a lot man. I literally felt like **** when i found out I only got that many questions correct. Many times I felt like quitting lmao.

Some of the questions are really good since they force you to go back and reinforce concepts. But most of them are really crazy lol.
 
I'm presently working through Bio Destroyer right now. I'm getting anywhere between 56-65% correct. How does Destroyer bio compare to the real thing? Will it benefit me to just go through this book 2-3 times and try to get everything in there?

I was in the same boat as you my first time around doing the chem questions second time I got up to 80% correct didn't do it a third time ended up getting a 24 gc on the real test. What im trying to say is that Ur doing great and you are already on the path to a high gc score. The bio is good to go thru once but honestly kinda of irrelevant to many random/extremely indepth questions. If ur scoring around 70% on those you are def going to get a high score. I was right around 70% bio correct for dat destroyer and got a 26 bio on my real dat
