Hope everything is going well. I'm applying this cycle and have a 3.7 cumulative and a 3.6 science, but I'm taking my DAT on July 3rd. I'm starting to study as we speak and have the Kaplan books in front of me. I'm also taking the Kaplan course in about 2 weeks and leading into my exam. Do you guys recommend I just follow strictly what Kaplan says and from their books, or is there something additional that I should do? Thank you in advance!
 
I can't say for sure since everyone is different, like you might be one of those guys that can just skim their class notes for a couple weeks and get 20+, but for regular people I think having Destroyer is a huge asset for the sciences.

Also, Crack DAT Pat is awesome for PAT
 
I don't think I'm one of those guys. But would the Kaplan books suffice for the sciences, along with their problems and exams?

Personally I find Kaplan to be a mere review of key concepts.... Kind of a refresher if it's been a while since you've taken the courses. The questions are no where near as challenging as other material. Plus, there's not enough of it. The exam is not just about knowing the material but knowing it quickly and you need practice doing a lot of problems quickly... That's why I bought DAT Destroyer. I also bought Crack the DAT which has been great for PAT and RC, as well as getting a feel for how the exam feels like on a computer screen.
