Since I live near where his class is located and I plan on taking the PCAT next year, I was wondering if anybody has taken the class and how does it compare in terms of other PCAT classes. Also, is its worth taking the class or is it sufficient to just have the study guide?

From what I've heard, the classes are a waste of time and money. It's best to just use books/flashcards

Isn't there only a small difference in fees between taking the classes or just ordering the material? I'd consider how disciplined you are. Classes will at least force you to study the materials and you may gain more knowledge just sitting in class. It'll also make you stay on top of things while you can start to procrastinate if you just order the materials. However, if you KNOW you're the type to study daily and can pace yourself, then you probably don't really need classes to keep you in line.

i'd consider taking the class. unless you have great study habits, going to a class might force you to actually do the work.

Yeah the class is around 500 dollars though.
They would meet every Saturday for about a month and a half or so and end a couple of weeks before the PCAT.
He also teaches at the school I attend. Maybe I should take him for Gen Chem 2 next semester.
