Its cool man, no one was offended. What did you do to improve? I know your mcat increased.
Basically, I studied hardcore for a month. Pretty much when I woke to when I slept, like 10am to 10pm during the summer. Figured that I could suffer for a month straight to get this test out of the way and the road would be smoother.
Specifically, I spent two weeks covering the EK books, TBR books, and a kaplan book (material-based review). I skimmed through a second time while writing things down that I would need memorized (equations, facts I thought were important, hormones, tips&tricks). Then, I moved on to 2 weeks of practice questions. I did all the EK questions in the back, TBR questions, Kaplan questions, and then moved on to the practice AAMC MCAT tests. I tried to find them online, but ended up buying some from their site. I think I ended up doing test 3, 4, 5, 7, 10, and 11. My avg was 35, range was 33-39. I reviewed my notes one last time the night before the exam.
Verbal was my weakest link, so I spent a lot of time focused on doing timed-passages besides timed-tests. I was doing the EK passage book, and I think it helped a lot. My 2nd score was 11, and my avg/1st was 10, so it's not too big of an improvement. I felt like it did give me more confidence, and really got used to the verbal testing format so I could do it faster and it translated to more time to think about the questions
I'm not sure what I did would help someone else, but that's what I did and it worked for me. There are in-depth guides on this website for studying the MCAT, which is great for reference, but I think it just comes down to time management, repetition (to get those things memorized), and knowing yourself (like how you study, etc). To be honest, I wish I had more time to prepare for the MCAT (maybe like 2 months?).
Regarding each section of the test, physical science was pretty straightforward for me. It was just kinda like doings questions that I had done before in practice tests, but with different numbers. Verbal was just luck of the draw, but I ended up with 5-7 mins to go back and think through tough questions (not that those extra mins really helped me decide which one was correct lol). Biology section was more analysis-based (in my opinion). There were not a lot of recall questions, like straight up give me the facts sort of thing. Most of them were like answer the question based on the info you have in the passage, but sometimes it required basic knowledge to understand what the passage. It reminds me of reading primary research papers in college and making a presentation about it.
I would recommend bringing snacks to fuel your brain during the exam. I always bring coffee and snicker bars to important exams. So far it hasn't failed me.
Hope that helps!
