So I am really confused,
Considering the large (or what I think is large) volume of students that take the MCAT every year it is surprising that a search on Amazon or Google for MCAT test prep books turns up search results where big names in test prep (i.e. Princeton Review) are not even sold directly from Amazon but through individual sellers, and not very many at that. There may be only about 5 reviews for one product which is not helpful in seeing a whollistic rating system. And what's weirder is that of the hordes of people I know that are taking the MCAT, or stressing about it, why is the selling of MCAT test prep books online so scattered (and i mean on large online bookstores, not these forums).
Is it just me or is anyone seeing this too??
So in light of my confusion I have been searching this forum, and right now I've not found cohesive information on what prep books are better than others. What are the differences between the books, and more importantly where is best to buy *brand new!!* and up-to-date books.
As far as I see there is one thing that shares the most consensus and that is purchasing the Exam Krackers 1001 series. Other than that I am at a lost.
