Hi everyone,

I just purchased the DAT Destroyer along with the Math destroyer and will be getting it by next week. Im happy about the purchase even though its more than I can afford but I heard its worth it. The only problem I have is that I am guessing the books are only questions but do not teach you any of the math or whatever subjects? I havent done math in years and I heard chads videos in coursesaver are good but its 50 a month. So should I get the course hero subscription? Because it doesnt have as many videos as the one in chads page but im paying a lot more. Will everything on the DAT be discussed on these videos because those videos are old and supposely the DAT changes every year?

Also, I am reading the AP Biology cliffnotes 3rs edition book but I heard not to rely on only that book? I know bootcamp is better but my exam isnt until june or july. Also, what other source can I get that teaches you the material, I dont just want auestions I want something to refresh everything In my head. Does the bootcamp do that or is it only a bunch of practice exams?

Furthermore, people tell me there are free sources like anki AP bio questions and stuff like that but I have no idea how to use anki i tried searching in it and nothing comes out? Does anyone know any good and free resources? I also seen youtube videos from “Organic tutor” for DAT videos on everything but are they reliable?


Sorry for the long post but it keeps bothering me! Thank you all!
 
Yeah bootcamp is the best all around study resource IMO. But, as you said, it is wise to wait until next year to get it. Honestly, if you focus on the Destroyer books now, and Cliffs Bio, and then leave plenty of time for Bootcamp next year, you will be very well prepared. Best of luck.
