2k dollar dilemma...

So I signed up for the Kaplan course and am very overwhelmed. I think their study plan (everything in 6 weeks) is pretty doable, but that's not taking into account other supplemental resources (EK, TBR, Khan Academy, etc).

I think it's too late for a refund but how should I approach studying for my MCAT in September? Should I stick to a more spread out study plan while ignoring their "assignments" or should I do all Kaplan reviewing now and add the others after?

I took the EK course, followed everything it told me to do during the course then once it was done (my course ended ~5 weeks before my exam) I looked at other resources. Of course Kaplan's course is not designed to give you time to use materials from other prep companies. Don't waste the course by not following the plan or doing the assignments; that's all your paying for, the classes help only minimally.

Makes complete sense, thank you!
