by far the most realistic resource is kaplan. i was using DAT achiever and scoring 15AA. there good for practice but if you wanna know where you actually stand take the tests that come with the Kaplan DAT book. Oh and on the actual test QRT was hard as hell!!!. OMG i died. i got a 16 on that section. Whatever lol i think my 19AA is ok

It went alright :/ I didn't do as well as I wanted to, so IDK if I am worthy to give a break down lol. Your test is next week, right? So I would just continue to study the way you have been! For me, what I'm pissed about is the proctor. I talked to them before my test to let them know that I would def need more scratch paper and she was great and quick, but halfway in the test a new proctor came and during QR I had to go out and get the scratch paper AFTER waiting for her to finish talking to someone. DEF why QR was my lowest section 🙁. so make sure and go early and talk to them! Otherwise just try to stay calm and confident! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 you'll do great and good luck 🙂

Aww of course you're worthy!! I'll definitely make sure to do that then!

Based on your experience? What do you think was the best resource for the chems? Did chad cover everything? I'm freaking about the chems haha because I have no idea how hard they'll be!!

Yeah I just used chad's for gchem and I really have no idea what I missed but everything for the most part was something I had seen on Chad's before! Don't worry, I'm sure you know everything you need to know!

The exact same thing happened to me when I took my test, during the QR section as well. The lady at the beginning was really good with getting my my scratch paper and then midway through my exam there was a younger girl who took over and I raised my sheet in the air and she waved me over from the window to come from my test to get the scratch paper, it was really annoying lol

I do not take my test until March 17th. I, so far, have watched all of Chad's videos for GC, OC and QR, 4 PAT test, 2 Math Destroyer Tests and 2 Organic Odyssey Test. I am on the fence about what to study for Bio, I have Cliffs AP Book but it's hard to dive into. It was so easy to watch Chad and take notes, I thrive on that. Are his bio videos not good? Also, did you do anything to study for the reading? I did Crack DAT Reading test and it was super easy, too easy.

Jumping in here randomly--though I LOVED Chad for the chemistries, I didn't put much stock into the bio videos.
Here is my best plan for bio: read Barron's AP Bio, THEN read Cliff's AP bio. Barron's AP bio is a much easier read. Having been exposed to it all beforehand in Barron's, it will make Cliff's easier to get through.
