The question arises, what to take. Kaplan or Princeton Review.

I am probably one of the best to answer that question because I took Princeton review, and now I teach for Kaplan.

I took the MCAT and did great on it (well enough to teach it)
And now I teach the MCAT for Kaplan

Here are the differences.

Princeton does a much better job teaching the content of the course, and has specialized teachers, and a more lenient schedule of what they teach.

Kaplan does a much better job teaching how to attack the questions and the passages, as well as all the little things about the test (stress, etc.).

If you feel that you are one who can read on their own and keep up with things, then Kaplan is for you. However, if you feel that you need to learn the content in class, and then go out and practice, then Princeton review is for you. Both are great, and have a lot of resources, basically it comes down to how much you want to study (over 100 hours probably)
