I have a solid background in organic but for Gen Chem and biology, I relied on destroyer. Got a 25TS. It's tough, but the real DAT is on the same level as destoyer. Do your best to understand the solutions and explanations.

If you look at the solutions right after you read the question because you find it too difficult. Then I would question your understanding of the topics that are covered in general chemistry. I would watch Chad again, do your best to understand every formula, concept, or idea he throws at you. Then you can start with destroyer. Also, you should post any question you struggle with on this forum and we will do our best to help you here at SDN.

Don't do kaplan's online review course, the amount of time spent there could be used wisely by doing self-study. I was a kaplan customer and i honestly didn't like the prep course.

much better to save 1500$ and just spend that on bootcamp or other resources

Are you sure sure about that? Numerous times I've heard destroyer is harder than the DAT
