Is there a good MCAT math review book out there. I'm not crazy about the EK book. The content is good but I'm looking for something that has a lot of different practice problems that don't require a calculator. I need to get used to this stuff without the calculator.

Seems like any good book with practice problems would work. I mean, if you want to get the answer to 3 significant decimal places you'll need a calculator, but rounding off and estimating is usually all you need to do to narrow it down to the correct answer. There are some problems on the MCAT that you would need a calculator to get the exact answer in a reasonable amount of time, but it's a multiple choice exam. Just estimate and rule out the wrong answers.
 
The TPR hyperlearning PS book has a pretty decent math section in the back of it.... maybe you can find one used in the classifieds
