Author: Guest The Examkrackers series is great to improve your MCAT score for home study. Just make sure to follow the home study guide on their website. The books are colorful, easy to read and...yeah almost fun to study from. The only major downfall is that the typos and errors can be frusturating. I got the 7th edition and it was still littered with typos! The typos and errors are so obvious that they could have been fixed if someone just proofread the final draft ONCE!! Seriously! For example: The front cover says "Includes exercises with OFFCIAL AAAMC material", you might see 4 answers and they forgot to ask a question. There are parts where they say remember these FOUR things and go on to number THREE things. It's still the best study guide for the MCAT. All the little typos and messups just get really anoying considering that anyone could have fixed them after one proof read. And after the SEVENTH EDITION?!?! Come on guys. Don't just pump out a new edition every year to make a quick buck without even fixing the retarded typos. That's just lame and cheap.
Author: Guest I haven't taken the MCATs yet but I've been impressed with the examkrackers materials. They summarize challenging information in a very condensed format without sacrificing clarity.
Author: Guest I'm very pleased with the product. These are really great for someone who wants a comprehensive review which puts the stuff you have to know for the MCAT into larger context. Prrovides a LOT of background knowledge that you don't really need, but if you weren't a bio or chem major as an undergrad it is really helpful to have a little extra. I've used Kaplan also, and I think Kaplan only covers EXACTLY the bare minimum you need to know... whereas this provides a lot more. EK might be overkill on the chem and physics... but its great in the bio book and the verbal has some really useful tips. Overall, the books are heavy on review and light on strategy and gimmicks... which I really like.
Watch out, though. I've found several place where EK notes that something is not tested on the MCAT, and I have personally seen it on a MCAT discrete last year.
Good luck! AM
Author: Guest The best thing about this book is that it tells you the material you need to know and the ones you don't need to know unlike other books. The review questions and the 30 minute exam after each chapter are also very helpful. The disadvantage is that since it gets right to the point it overlooks some material so I suggest this book in addition to another provider. Bit overall I was very impressed.
Author: Guest For MCAT prep, this set of books is worth every penny. You won't find a cheaper method of studying that is so highly rated. The package actually contains 5 seperate books so its easy to take one or two with you as needed. I highly recommend them to anyone preparing to take the MCAT.
