Alright guys, throughout the course of the last few days I have been trying to compile a list of MCAT content review materials and wanted to get some insight/opinions from people with past experience
From my research, I have established the following to be the most useful:
Official Guide to the MCAT by AAMC (more of a before I start studying to see what I'm up against read)
The Berkeley Review for Chem, Bio, Physics, Organic
The Princeton Review and 300 pg @MCATKINGS document for Psych/Soc
ExamKrackers as well as The Princeton Review for CARS
Nextstep for Verbal
As many of you know, these books are painfully expensive (especially bc I smell like broke lol) to buy new, so I'm currently working on getting used ones from people in my surrounding area. The Berkeley ones are more difficult to find so if I can't manage to get my hands on them, I was going to settle for TPR. Thoughts?
I also concluded UWorld is an incredibly useful tool and should be utilized, as well as official AAMC material (towards the end of content review).
Let me know your experience with these materials and if you consider them good recommendations! The overall appeal of the EK and Kaplan books pertain to my taste, but I was worried about them not being in-depth enough. I'll suffer without the pretty colors and pristine organization. All in all, I just want to crush this SOB.
