Has anyone who has written the MCAT and studied with EK done the Stimulated Exam (#1H) included with the EK Books? I'm wondering if it's worth it. I am only doing this exam and the free AAMC one as well as the EK 30 min exams.

I literally went searching under SDN for people's thoughts on the Examkrackers 1H right after I checked my answers because when I took it today, there were lots of answers that had strange explanations or sounded wrong. EK material have a lot of errors in them and this test was one of them. I scored a 23 on this exam when I usually get 30s on the AAMC ones so I would skip this practice exam and just use the AAMC ones. The most recent AAMCs (9-11) are a good indication of what your real score will be like.

These were some of the other forums that had the same thoughts as I did.

I'm just going to use this test to see where my weaknesses are content wise since I've already taken it but its not worth it.

No problem!

In case you have further concerns, this post answers a lot and addresses issues you may not have thought of. I wish I had seen this before the whole MCAT process but I can't do anything about that now.
