Hey everyone,

Can anyone, preferably people that already took the mcat this year, recommend a really good prep book for chem/phys? These are both my weakest subjects since my university did not have the best professors teaching intro classes. I started using Kaplan 2015 for chem but 4 chapters in, I felt iffy about it. I do have EK books as well.
 
I feel like Examkrackers did a good job simplifying the concepts you need to know. When I was still iffy after reading EK, I just supplemented with Khan Academy.
