I've seen this site advertised all over the place. Has anyone actually ordered this? If so did it help much? I signed up for the "3 day course" but the questions they sent me were really simple, so I'm wondering if this is a crock or not. Thanks.

Well there are 2 things that give me a feeling of this not being legit. First, the website design is similar to most infomercial website designs. Second, notice how all the testimonials and the guy say 99th percentile, 97th percentile, yet they fail to mention the actual score. Sounds a little suspicious to me.
 
actually...to play devil's advocate

I am not sure they are not legit. The questions I received from their 3-day seminar do not seem bad, I want to try them with a more extensive amount of Qs, but so far they work.

Now that I see this website though, I have always wondered if there are any former MCAT exam creation people working solo out there, they would definitely make the real blockbuster/bestseller mcat test prep material...hmm makes me wonder...
 
In a moment of weakness I did buy that in the past. It was very pointless to me as I thought most of the "tips" were intuitive strategies that you should know anyway. But there is really no penalty in paying the money and trying it out because they do honor their moneyback policy. You even get to keep the pdf files that they send you as your "study material" because its not like you can send them back. I would say, give it a try because it cant hurt you either way.

I'll tell you the secret for free.

Understand and integrate you pre-reqs and bust your rump before the exam.
