Hey! I used Examkrackers MCAT books and a (terrible) DAT book to study for the OAT. I think using MCAT books are fine. Lots of people on this forum seem to recommend using Examkrackers and Kaplan MCAT books. I would also recommend applying for something online for practice questions and review, such as OAT Destroyer.

I also agree with using the ExamKrackers MCAT, I used them too and found them helpful. Just know that the format for the MCAT and OAT are different, if you start practicing MCAT formated questions they will be passage-based so just make sure when you using MCAT study material that your not actually studying the MCAT passage-based stuff, stick to just the short-answered question stuff (hope this makes sense!).
