Iam almost done with the biology portion in the kaplan book(not the course). Do you guys think that is enough material or do I need to review anything else? Thank you.

Hey, I don't know how many people even have the Kaplan book so I don't know if many people can answer the question...

That being said, I DO have the Kaplan book, but Bio has me stumped too. The book seems sufficient, but I keep second guessing that statement. You can go SOOOOOO in depth into Bio, and I, too, am confused as to how much I should cover. The PCAT covers Gen Bio, Micro, and A&P, yes. But how detailed should you go? Anyone have any advice on this?

From what I have read, people say Kaplan is more than sufficient for bio except for microbio.

study the examkrackers bio section if you have it...i thought that one helped a lot as well. not super indepth like the kaplan one but it does cover some stuff that's not in the kaplan book (like the microbio section)

I don't have the examkrackers book(Microbiology), but I'll surely check Barnes& Nobles this weekend. Thanks.

The Kaplan book really goes into way too much detail involving thing like A+P but really is lacking in some of the fundamental Microbio info.

That being said I think the Kaplan book does an overall good job with the bio section you just might wanna supplement it with something else to get your fill of Microbio.
