Practicing Gen Chem problems

Do you think that practicing Gen Chem problems from my old textbook would be helpful in studying for the OAT or would that just frustrate me because the OAT asks in a completely different style? This goes for any subject on the OAT for that matter...where did you guys get your extra practice problems from?

I usually like to save my problems until I can sit and time myself on them, but then that doesn't leave me with any problems to practice with once I finish up a subject. What do you guys do?

Doing practice problems is the best way to study. I think that using textbooks from your old book is a great way to brush up on Gen Chem. While the OAT is almost all conceptual question, if you understand the theories well enough to knock out those problems I think the ones on the OAT should be a breeze
