I plan on taking the April 2011 MCAT and I need help deciding which TPR prep course to sign up for. TPR has a 6 month course that meets 2 days per week or a 4 month course that meets 4 days per week. Any opinions as to which course results in better retention of the material?

4 month course. You're more likely to retain material when you concentrate your study schedule.

Take TPR Hyperlearning 4 month or less. I took the 3 month course. Because the books are so good on their own and you study your butt off during the course, by about 3/4 of the way through the class stops being helpful for anything but review. Check my PR review/overview if you want more about the course itself.
