For the past 3 DAT tests I've used only Kaplan. My perceptual ability, quantitative reasoning, and reading comprehension have remained low...so I'm looking for something new so that I can maximize my scores. I've heard about the destroyer, topscore, achiever, and schuams. What would be the best materials I could use to improve those sections I just mentioned? Also could anyone tell me more about schuams? thanks ya'll 😀 (I wouldn't like any material that doesn't give good explanations for problems).

I wouldn't recommend Schaum's unless you have plenty of time.
 
In my opinion there really isn't a "good" study material for the reading comp section. QR I'm not too sure about...I used the kaplan book and my score sucked anyway but whatev. and for PAT, I used Barrons...that was pretty good...I'd recommend it.
 
I just used kaplan and topscore, and got my scores. Obviously I didnt spend enough time on QR... 👎
