In all honesty, those courses really are a waste of money. $1500 for teaching you what you've already been taught? That's insane. Just get the Kaplan review book (the BIG one) and start studying. Buy the old MCATs, they're only $80. Take as many practice tests as possible. If you start studying at the end of this semester, that will leave you plenty of time before August to figure out where your weaknesses are, and concentrate on them. If you have one huge pitfall, say organic, take a summer class to freshen up on it at a state university or comm. college. That's much cheaper than the Kaplan or Princeton Review course.
