Okay so I've been researching the threads posted on this website and keep going back and forth between which study materials I should invest in. The obvious PRO of Dr. Collins is that it is $900 cheaper than Kaplan. The PRO of Kaplan is that it has been around and seems to be like the HONDA of test prep. If anyone has any advice I could really use it. I am finishing up my semester this upcoming week and would like to purchase the materials ASAP so I can get going with this.

Thanks!
 
I remember reading in an old post that someone took the Kaplan course and found it to be a complete waste of time. It was taught by someone who knew more about the MCAT than the PCAT, and therefore wasted time going over stuff that didn't pertain to the PCAT. Of course, this was just one experience. Having studied the Kaplan book and Collins, I recommend the latter. You can read my experience in the other threads.

Plug: I am selling my Collins guide. PM if you're interested.
