Has anyone used this? It's for the MCAT but I feel like it would be great help for the reading comprehension section for the PCAT. I would appreciate any advice.
What I plan on doing for the RC section is first dr collins ( I've heard it sucks for this part but just to warm up lol) then kaplan the exam krackers. I'll probably do 2 passages a day. Then I will take the 3 pearson test. Do the pearson exams show solutions to the problems after? In chem or Quant?

Yup. You can see right answers and explanations for all of the sections except for the writing section (I don't think there was writing section in Pearson practice tests).
Great Thanks for the answer. How soon would you recommend buying these 3 exams? I'm still studying for the PCAT with the dr collins so I know I'm not ready to take them now. I am taking the test Sept 26th so I was thinking around sept 10 i should take one every 5 days.
I'd take one ASAP. Maybe leave one for a week before to see what you need to brush up on. But I found it easier to study Collins after seeing the Pearson exams.
According to the Pearson practice test site:Great advice. I will def do so after I go thru QAUNT section of dr collins. The test don't expire so i can login and take them any time? Also do I buy them on the pearson site? Thanks for all your advice

thanks for the responses. We can take the test multiple times correct? Take it once learn our mistakes and take it again? Or is it a one and done thing?
Has anyone gotten over a 20 percentile on the RC of the PCAT after using examkracker 101 verbal reasoning?

To those who used examkracker 101 MCAT verbal reasoning and did well on the reading comprehension of the PCAT, did you score high the first time you took the practice tests of the book?
No. No way.
Scored a 7 on the 1st EK reading section (MCAT scored differently, I think a 7 is ~50% correct). They will improve with practice and review.
I scored an 87 on my RC for PCAT.
Do EK only for a bit. For 2 weeks, do only EK.
Take a test every other to every third day. Review the test the next day. Take as much time to review as it took you to take it. Understand why you got them wrong, how to avoid getting it wrong in the future. Etc. Then at the end of 2 weeks, when you go back to PCAT the passages, they will seem 1000x easier to understand, comprehend and answer questions about. Then, once you do well on these sections, you'll actually look forward to taking them and your confidence will go through the roof.
That makes me feel better. I was getting low scores on the practice test of EK. I thought I would bomb the RC of the PCAT given the low scores of the EK tests.
I noticed that there were many nonscience passages (history, parenting, business, law, etc) and some science packages in the EK. Did you focus on only the science passages and skipped the nonscience?
