I'm not going to use the format, because I'm too lazy...and I want to answer burton's question since I think if I studied smarter I would have done a bit better (no complaints though
).
I got a 21AA/23TS/20PAT (23 Bio, 23 GC, 22 OChem, 20 Verbal, 18 Math)
I used the Kaplan online course materials (from eBay), Barron's (for math and PAT), Schaum's Bio, Columbia's High Yield Bio, two different GRE math review books, Top Score, DAT Achiever, Examkrackers, and KSF.
If you want to get a really good score in bio I feel you need to supplement the Kaplan book. I liked Examkrackers bio the most. But, then I used Schaum's for ecology, plants, etc. which aren't covered in Examkrackers. The week or two before the test I used Columbia High Yield which is in outline form and a great refresher for quick studying. I feel that Examkrackers 1001 questions in bio was mostly a waste of time since it is predominantly passage based.
For general chemistry know everything in Kaplan and you will be fine. Examkrackers Chemistry and 1001 questions in chemistry both go into FAR too much detail. IMO using them will be a waste of time better spent elsewhere.
For Ochem know everything in Kaplan. If you're not real strong on the concepts of Ochem (sub and elimination rxns) then Klein's "Organic Chemistry as a Second Language" is a great book. I thought that Examkrackers Ochem and 1001 questions books were both quite helpful and not a waste of time for that section.
For math: If you're not good at standardized math tests start studying for the math immediately. I hate math on standardized tests and so I put it off. I'm also a former engineer and I've heard of a couple other engineers who didn't study for it and paid. So, don't blow it off, schools might not look at the math specifically, but they do look at the AA and it'll drag down your AA. I didn't think that Kaplan was sufficient for the math, so at the last minute, I used two GRE books.
Verbal: I you're bad at verbal then Examkrackers verbal is very good since the verbal section on the MCAT is a beast. I didn't really study for the verbal and kinda paid for it a bit.
PAT: For PAT I would start with the explanation/tips section of Barron's, then use Kaplan's, then do the test sections of Barron's. DAT Achiever is very good for everything, but especially for PAT. But, don't waste a pat from dat achiever until you're ready for it...
As far as the digital materials go: I bought KSF right after they came out and at that time they were not worth the time or money. Top Score is the most like the real dat and should be saved for diagnostic purposes IMO. Dat Achiever is awesome, just don't let your scores get you down. Make sure you give yourself time to review the digital tests really well. If you want to do your best go over every question, even the ones you got right.
If I could do the whole thing over again (ugghh) I wouldn't use Examkrackers 1001 questions in bio or general chem, I wouldn't use EK general chem, I'd start studying for the math right away, and I'd give myself time to review the practice tests (it took longer than I thought).
I used a lot of materials and spent a lot of time and money preparing. How long you have to study is an individual thing, I wouldn't be paying a lot of attention to that stat in this thread. Take the test when your ready...it'll pay off.
Good luck guys...keep your eyes on the prize
