Hi everyone,
I am currently using the EK set (5th edition) which, even though I've just started, seems like it will prepare me very well. I took a SAT prep course in high school but I really didn't find it that helpful, just forced me to practice. But, I actually find the MCAT material more interesting than SAT material.
My situation is this, I go to a school where many people are pre-med and Princeton is offering a prep course from January to April right at my school. I could technically fit the times into my schedule, the money really isn't an issue. My question is this: should I bother? I'm the type of person who doesn't really learn anything from the professor during science lectures, I teach myself everything from the book. Is being forced to do repetitive practice at this prep course (even though I will do it on my own)that much of a factor for MCAT success? Do you think this course would really help my score?
Thanks in advance for any input!
