So I am currently studying for the QR section of the DAT, I've noticed that a lot of people i guess due to time restraints tend to overlook this section but for those of you who have thuroughly prepared for it any sugesstions on what to study. Also i am studying by going over the KBB review and it seems relativly easy, will this material be sufficient enough for the DAT or is the KBB really slacking in the QR prep department. I also have DAT destroyer math to do but I want to finish KBB's review first so with that being said any other sugestions?

MATH destroyer....the math from the DAT destroyer is okay, but nothing beats Math dest. book
 
Depending on how strong/confident you are in math, you may not need Math Destroyer. I went through the math section about 3x. This is what I did:

Go through the math section doing ~30-40 problems at a time. Check your answers. Mark the ones you got wrong (I used a little sticky note). Continue with the rest of the questions in the same manner until you're done with all the math. Go back and redo the ones you got wrong. Repeat this over and over and eventually the number of questions you get wrong will decrease.

If you notice that you keep getting the same problems wrong and the solution in the back isn't help you, look up how to solve that type of problem. Khans Academy also helps a lot for little things that you keep getting wrong. I suck at probability/statistics and his videos really helped clear things up for me. When the real DAT came, I made sure I wrote down trig values and probability/statistics formulas on the white board.

If you really feel like you need additional help with math, then Math Destroyer will probably be good for you.
