After 105 hours of intensive learning with our specialist instructors, you will get a great score on the MCAT. Our Hyperlearning program is rigorous, demanding and thorough – like the MCAT itself. Make an informed decision – your MCAT score deserves as much. In addition, if you take our course and aren't happy with your score, you can take our entire course again for free. That's our guarantee. If you still don’t believe us? Then put our Hyperlearning MCAT course up against the competition.

Hyperlearning MCAT Classroom Course by the Numbers
3-5 Number of Expert Instructors
Your course will be led by a team of specialists, each of whom is an expert in his or her specific field. Our instructors are screened, trained, and certified. Other companies may have only 1 teacher. Plus we think it’s worthless having rock star instructors unless you can spend quality time with them. You’ll have your instructor’s cell phone number and e-mail address, and you’ll be able to reach him any time.

105 Hours of Live Classroom Instruction
You’ll meet up to 42 times over 3-4 months (or 6 months for the early start programs) for up to 105 hours of instruction (see syllabus), and we help you master every aspect by guiding you through our extensive practice materials and rigorous schedule.

•Expert content knowledge in biology, chemistry and physics
•Fundamental reading comprehension skills
•Effective time-management and strategic skills
•The Princeton Review methodology
•Class session breakdown: 10 Biology, 14 Chemistry, 9 Physics and 9 Verbal.

22+ hours of live Verbal preparation, more than any other major test prep company.

19 Practice Tests
The only way you’ll know how you’ll do on the MCAT is by taking a real test. That’s why you’ll have unlimited access to all 8 AAMC exams as well our 11 full-length, computer-based MCATs with detailed score reports and complete with annotations.

4300 Pages of Material
Comprehensive up-to date materials with review, practice passages and questions, complete with full explanations.

24/7 Online Access
We give you the tools to study any time, any place through your Online Student Center, which includes extra drills (6 additional MCATs' worth of subject-specific drills), materials, and explanations.

I noticed in the Classroom Course description that there are only 14 classes allotted to Chemistry, as opposed to 9 for the other sections. Is this enough time for a review of the Chemistry material, since there is both Gchem and Ochem?

Since I have posted a question for Kaplan and Examkrackers, I figured I would post a question to you as well. I have heard from other students that your instructors do not have to take their MCAT in order to teach for you. Can you tell me how this would be beneficial for a student?
As for your practice tests, it is great that you have so many to do for students...how do they compare to that AAMC tests? Are they on par, easier, or harder than what the AAMC gives?
Thanks.

The course adequately covers both General and Organic Chemistry in the 14 classes. We offer the most live classroom hours – check out a sample syllabus and a breakdown of topics here - see syllabus. We will cover all areas in Chemistry so you will be confident on test day.

That is interesting that you heard that. Let me clarify this. We have a team of instructors, each an expert in his or her subject - unlike some other companies who may provide one instructor for all subjects. We believe in the specialist approach. So the benefit of that is that you can have 5 instructors focused on your MCAT score each specifically examining a specific area. This provides you with expertise. It is difficult for an instructor to be an expert in every single area of the MCAT.

Now our teachers come from a variety of backgrounds. They run the gamut from people that have taken our course and the MCAT and are in the process of applying to medical school to graduate students to college teachers.

Regardless of their background, they are screened and certified to be subject specific experts while they go through a rigorous training for ONE subject before they get to be in front of the classroom. So in fact, you can be assured they are all experts in the subject they are teaching you. And to your question about taking the MCAT, they must be an expert in their particular subject so a Physics instructor does not need to have taken the Verbal section of the MCAT but must master the Physics. And that is where the student benefits.


If you are interesting in actually seeing some teachers in action, please check out our Anatomy of the MCAT. You will then be able to meet some first hand. These in-depth seminars are a great opportunity to get familiar with the content of the MCAT exam and learn how to approach each part of the test. Our team of specialist instructors will analyze the content of the MCAT subject by subject and demonstrate how to tackle each section of the exam so you can achieve your best score. Feel free to attend one or all workshops. Find FREE workshops near you – Click Here or call us at 888-955-4600.


Our practice exams mimic the real MCAT and are on par. We provide you unlimited access to our 11 full-length practice exams plus all 8 AAMC practice MCATs so if you complete all 19, you should be confident in the score you will get.

TPR Test Prep Exhibitor,

I'm intrested in taking a Hyperlearning MCAT classroom course for the July-August Session. Is there any current promotions going on that I can use towards the fee?

Thank You
