-----------------
I signed up for the course during my fall semester. I was a full-time student at the time so I did not dedicate any time for the Kaplan course. When the Kaplan course was over, I felt like it was a waste of money.
When summer finally came around, I decided to study for the PCAT. Although the course was over, I still had the books. I studied the books and questions a few hours everyday for one month, right before my August PCAT test. I ended up with a 92% composite! I feel the most important part was having the books (the review notes) and going over the questions on those review notes. It really solidifed my knowledge for the PCAT. There are tons of reinforcement questions as you can see above and they really, really help!
Although it says I am a new member, I've actually been part of the forums since Feb 2008. I had to make a new account due to security reasons; if needed, a moderator can vouch for this if it's needed to soldify my reputation as a seller.
FAQ
1. What edition books are these?
-I tried to find a year but with no success so I am actually not sure what edition it is. I signed up for the Kaplan class in fall 2008 and during summer 2009, I used the materials to study for my August 2009 PCAT. My friend's set is also from there same year since we signed up for the Kaplan class together. Even though it's an older edition book, I do not think PCAT has done any revisions in their newer edition. Hope that helps! If I were to guess, I would say 2008-2009 edition
2. Which set do you recommend? (someone actually asked me this via email)
-Personally, I would recommend my set. It has highlighting and some notes written on the side. It was material I deemed important and was something I felt was important to know on the PCAT. However, there are people who love new books so I understand if they want to go with the new set. I will post pictures later to show the extent of the highlighting and note-taking. None of it covers the original text!
3. What's the extent of the highlighting or writing in the old set?
-It seems all the PMs and emails are get are regarding the new set. People must have a thing against old books! Anyway:
