What are some good practice materials for the QR and RC section of the DAT?
I hear that DAT Math Destroyer questions are much easier than the real test (Although I do not do well on the questions, which is why I need help)
What else can I use for practice... or to learn the necessary material?
What about for reading? Which materials are helpful? What can I use for practice?
Are the questions on Crack the DAT representative of the actual DAT?
Thanks

For QR section.. from what I have read here... i think along with CDM it is always useful to use Kaplan... Kaplan has lot more word problems..something that all the DAT takers have mentioned to show up in the exams...

FOR RC even I would like to know what else can we use...

Anyone else confirm Math Destroyer is easier than the real DAT?

I thought everyone said it was good practice and represents the DAT good?

i read it was harder and it prepares you for the tricky questions on the dat as well as for timing wise.

I heard from sources that 80% of the Math Destroyer shows up in the actual DAT. Personally, I feel that Math Destroyer is tricky, which gives me an impression that it is preparing me for the tricky questions if they show up in real DAT.

I would like to get some feed back from people who used CDM and already taken the test. How did CDM worked? and how similar was it to the actual DAT?

I am currently using the Math Destroyer and I feel like it covers more then you need to know. Between the 11 practice exams, and the questions in the DAT destroyer, you should be good to go.

Just be sure that you know how to set up the problem, and work though it effectively. If you are having trouble with this, then try to find a math teacher (even someone from high school) that wouldn't mind tutoring you. I am currently using my Physics Proff to guide me through the elementary steps that we tend to forget overtime...

Math Destroyer is gold for QR. it teaches you tricks as well so you do it FAST. the # of tests is good for practice because you cannot hesitate on just one problem.
