For those of you who have used EK Audio Osmosis, what were your impressions? I think I'm going to spring for it, but $199 is a lot to pay and I want to be sure it will augment all of my other study material.

I have audio osmosis and have found it quite helpful in refreshing concepts that I have forgotten from past semesters. It's especially beneficial for me because I commute about 1.5 hours a day.
If your plan is to sit in your room and listen to them, forget about it....get the books. I would definitely recommend audio osmosis to anybody who has time to pay attention to the cd's while doing something else (work, driving). If, however, you plan to just settle in to listen to them totally focused on just the cd...you will bore quickly and you will have wasted $200 (or $150 if you buy them at www.alibris.com).
Either way, you need to buy examkracker's complete study package (also at www.alibris.com)...their books are sweet.

Great....I really appreciate it. I also have a 1.5 hour commute every day so I think they would come in handy. If anyone else has any comments they would be greatly appreciated.

They worked great for me. I ended up listening to all the cd's about 3 times each cd (theres 12). I listened to them every nite. I worked in the summer from 8-3. Then I studied from 4:30 to 10 . Went home and ate dinner. Then walked the dog and went to bed. While in bed I listened to the cd;s for about a half an hour until I Passed out from complete exhaustion. But I credit the cd's with giving be the drive to keep doing it everyday. They helped me remember some hard concepts and gave me great pnuemonics for certain bio and orgo areas .Id say buy them and also buy the exam krackers books they kicked ass helped me go from a 20 to a 27
