I was wondering if anyone knew how to compare the EK scores in Biology to the MCAT? I am studying the biology section and averaging 14 out of 23 on the 30 min exams. Is that like a 7 or 8 MCAT or is there no telling?

In EK physics I was getting like 7-9, I got a 9 on MCAT. In orgo I was getting the same 7-9, and I got an 11 on MCAT.
You dont get an individual score for Orgo and Physics on the MCAT. I'm guessing you mean Physical Science and Bological Science sections. Either way, it does not make sense getting a 7-9 on the Physics section vs 9 on the Physical Science section because the Physical Science includes Gen Chem and Physics.
That said, I found EK questions to be generally slightly easier than the actual MCAT exam.

Lol I know how the sections work, but I was only exposed to physics and orgo EK, so I can only offer input on that specific matter. I guess I assumed people would realize I meant the physical sciences and biological sciences sections when referring to actual MCAT.

I thought the EK books were better than PR (don't know about Kaplan though). I think the EK 1001 questions really helped me and the aamc or whatever that org is called (place that administers MCAT-sad I don't remember). But those practice tests are great, I took the free practice one and then paid for 2 others.
