Hello everyone,
I just ordered the EK Complete Study package, and it is confusing the hell out of me. I understand the lecture quizes and answer explanations, but when i read through a lecture chapter, I have NO CLUE what they are saying. I think it's because I learned the material in a different format, and trying to relearn something in a different "language" is just confusing to me.
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone else had a similar experience. I was also wondering if I would be better-off just taking the EK practice quizes and reviewing in my college text books. I find it alot easier to read through my college text because I remember learning it previously.
I also found that the aamc website posts an outline for each subject. Maybe I will just go through my textbooks and highlight the material presented on the outline. Do you think this is a good idea?
I guess I am a little frustrated because I bought the EK complete study package thinking it would be a great review, but I found it just confused me even more. One thing that is a positive about the material is their pictures, mneumonics, and highlighted equations (but the equations confuse me a little because they use different symbols and forms).
Anyway, sorry for the long post. I was just wondering if anyone has any suggestions.

p.s. this information only pertains to the chemistry book, because that is the only one that I have begun to read through.
