Hey guys.

Im going to be writing the cDAT in November and am looking for some extra practice. Ive already been going through the Kaplan material for about 3 weeks and im almost done with it. im just wondering what you guys would recommend in terms of Destroyer or Topscore since ive heard heard things about both.v

Ok so those 2 materials are completely different. the Destroyer mainly focuses on mastering the sciences. I used both of those materials. I got a 20 in bio, 23 in g chem and 26 in orgo and that was mainly because of the destroyer. topscore was good for timing. I learned how to pace myself. however, the sciences on top score are way of the target. HOwever topscore is good for the reading and OK for the math even though it is easaier thatn the real test in those subjects. DO not hesistate on getting the destroyer if you really want to pull of 20's on your sciences.

Destroyer definitely focuses on the sciences but it is priceless! I would have to say this is a hard decision to make because I think topscore is great for allowing you to get used to reading from a computer and working on timing, but the information in Destroyer is some of the best stuff out there. If you feel confident enough on your timing then I would recommend the Destroyer. I would also recommend Cliffs AP Bio, which is really inexpensive, especially if you get a used version online from somewhere like Amazon.

In what ways is topscore "way off" for the sciences?

i agree with pauly and my gentile friend there...you gotta get topscore to get yourself used to the timing and the reading comp isnt bad. but destroyer is the best for the sciences. cliffs ap is needed for bio to get you groundwork.

TopScore and Destroyer are two completely types of resources. Destroyer is a question bank; whereas, topscore provides you with full length exams that allow you to familiarize yourself with the format of the test and also work on your time management skills. So you're gonna NEED them both!
