I'm hearing mixed reviews about QVault and I was wondering how you guys feel about it. I've been testing myself using QVault and I find myself enjoying their RC as well as their OC/GC but it would be a real bummer if it wasn't up to par with the real DAT. I'm planning on using boot camp as well in order to improve my scores but should I be using QVault at all as a guideline about where I stand or are the scores that I get for QVault not a good indication at all?

Can you please post your QVault scores vs your actual DAT scores as well? Thank you!!
 
CDP's QR was good practice for timing. Some of the questions were a bit repetitive but overall it was actually not bad for math at all. Fairly representative of the test I had, although their tests are a bit lacking on the statistics.

Qvault's QR was about on par with the real thing in difficulty, maybe a bit easier, but I felt it covered the full scope of question types.

Good to hear thanks. I did one destroyer test and cdp yesterday andmath destroyer was significantly harder

Yea I heard several people have said that Gen Chem, Bio were right on. I remember BYU said QR QVault was an underrated star or something similar, can't find his post, but that he really liked it.

I heard Ochem was a bit unique as far as reagents and questions. Im scoring around 21 Gen Chem and 20 Bio in Qvault, what do you think, I believe in an old post you told me Qvault Gen Chem was slightly harder or about on par??
 
In terms of difficulty, Qvault Bio was probably on part or slightly harder than the DAT (the real test was not as detail oriented), Qvault OC was harder (the real test was far more basic), and Qvault GC was about right on par in difficulty (real test had less of those super random/specific conceptual questions though).

But that was just my version, who knows how it can go. As far as I remember Qvault's scoring scale is a little more forgiving than any of the other practice tests.
 
Luckily, I found my QVAULT scores from 2 years ago. Biology I was averaging 18.2, General chemistry 19.9, and Organic 19.5.

I ended up with a 20 in Biology, General chemistry a 20, and Organic a 23.
 
I am not sure about resources for QVAULT. I didn't purchase the other sciences because I wanted to spend less than $150 on all the materials that I used. I can only comment on the biology portion. I think it is great that there are some easy questions and some questions that require thinking. I know that on the DAT, it will be similar to this.
