Hi All,

I will be taking the MCAT in a couple of months and was picking out the primary review book that I was going to use. And I bought this Princeton review book http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Cr...ng the MCAT 2011 2012 Edition-_-9780375427183. I haven't seen anyone really praise Princeton on the forum so I wanted to see what you guys thought and how it compares to Kaplan or Examcrackers. Thanks!

I was just looking at the same book today. I would also like to know what experience others have had with "Cracking the MCAT, 2011-2012 from Princeton Review."

I already have all the Kaplan electronically on my iPad (free promo deal). I already had the Examkrackers series w/ the Audio Osmosis. I like Examkrackers, however, if you are weak in a particular subject, like me, then Examkrackers needs to be augmented. I know a lot of people don't like the Kaplan books, but I think they compliment each other pretty well. However, since I am particularly weak in biology, I am planning on augmenting my library a little more.

I used the Princeton VR and WS book (good), also the o.chem book (not as helpful to me).

I think that the section on the WS helped me the most.

so from the Hyperlearning books, which is the best to use besides the Science workbook because that's great practice.

Is the bio, chem, orgo, or physics TPR Hyperlearning review good?

TPRH is solid across the board, though it's not the best. Overall, it's a good #2.

Thanks for the info everyone. I heard Examkrackers was really good, is it really better than Kaplan and Princeton Review?
