After outline the KBB and various tutoring sessions, I'm ready to study on my own intensively.
I plan on taking the DAT in the middle May.

With studying daily studying (30-40 hrs/week) using Chad's Videos, DAT Destroyer, and Crack the PAT, will I be well prepared?
 
I would also recommend you refrain from study more than 2-3 months 30-40 hours a day. You will start to forget the material you studied in the beginning if you study over a longer period of time--at least that's the case for me.
 
That's a good point from tandem. You're looking at some serious hours there.

I studied 4-5 hours a day (and not always on Saturday and Sunday) for 3 months. In retrospect, I could have have easily cut it down to about 2.5 months. I came out with a 26, and I know that tandem came out with a 25. You don't have to put in crazy hours to make it work--it's about being efficient. 🙂
