how do you like the Kaplan course? i've taken the MCAT twice already & did crappy. the only way i'll take the MCAT again is with more "structure" like with the review course. $1650 is alot of money to put out there.....especially when yer poor 🙁 . just thought i would inquire about the course. thanks & good luck!!!
Honestly, I think it might kill me!
🙂 It's been VERY hard to make myself sit down for about 4-5 hours Monday through Thursday thus far...and this week, I have some catching up to do, so it's probably going to be 4-5 hours/day through next Thursday night or so.
I know in the end, it will be a good thing. Right now, Physics is by far my weakest area...I think they have some good ideas, but some of the stuff is just common sense. I am actually taking the online course, so it's more at my leisure, but also makes it a little less structured.
I did it mostly because I have not had some of the material in class in over 10 years...and with it being summer, I knew I would need extra motivation to keep myself on track.
I have taken AAMC Practice Test 3, and after taking some of the Kaplan material, I'm starting to wonder if Kaplan actually makes some of their stuff more difficult. It can get very discouraging at times...it's a TON of material, but in the end I think it will be worth it.
I think all the structure and practice I'm going to get in this summer will make the 1400 bucks I spent on this course well worth it. At least it better.
