Books that seem like material MCAT Verbal would extract material from.

[DrDotooMuch]

I'm an avid reader. I love recreational reading. I thought it would be fun for people to post books that they have read that just seams like something the MCAT writers would extract from. Ill start it off...

Eric Fromm - Escape from Freedom

Noam Chomsky - Manufacturing Consent

Noam Chomsky - On Anarchism

Karl Marx - Communist Manifesto

"oh the places you'll go"

could you imagine? "what is the author's main point?"

but on a serious note, anything by foucault and/or any post-modernist philosopher? A lot of random historical critiques. Any art history book.

1984

Animal Farm

Moby Dick

Shakespeare's Works

Any psychoanalytical opinions regarding Freud

Check out some Anthropology books

Take some interesting history classes.

And any other Western Literature

Harry Potter!

jk. Read from a variety of sources in topics you aren't comfortable or familar with. Art history, government, politics, history, literature, education, sports, anything. I think it is beneficial to know a little about everything so if a passage shows up about some obscure detail or person you have some familiarity with its context, if that makes any sense.

Almost anything that isn't in the mainstream reading culture would likely help you with verbal: political theory, philosophy, allegorical works, etc..
