Which material is closer to the DAT? I'm taking Kaplan, and have Destroyer--which I haven't started yet. I have read here that the Kaplan PAT is not enough, so I'll get the Crack PAT material. What else? Specially for the Biology part? My main strength is chemistry.

It seems like CLiffsAP get a lot of good talk around here, as does Schaum's. I have Cliffs and it is very general (haven't taken the test, maybe general is good). Schaum's is supposed to be more detailed, but I'm thinking I'm going to use my text book (raven 8th) more than anything else.
 
Thanks you. I'm going to look into those. If they are too long to study I may not get them. I'm running out of time to add long material 🙁
 
When are you planning on taking the DAT?

I also have Kaplan, Cliffs AP Bio, and Destroyer. I think I'll add CDP and TopScore to that list. My test date is Aug. 20th.

I'm taking the DAT August 28 or 31...don't know yet. I looked at Destroyer last night. My brother gave it to me last summer and I noticed that it's from 2007...any problem with that? I noticed that some of the math questions were very similar to Kaplan. He put it together into one book with Q's and another book with Answers....is this the whole package?
