Any recommendations for MCAT prep that come in Kindle Format? Need to cut down on my electronics and physical books and I have a kindle available to me. I have some prep materials in PDF but they're super awkward on the Kindle. I have the whole TBR book series, but I'll be travelling and can't take the actual books with me.

I've been looking into this too. It looks like there is mostly just junk available for Kindle - for MCAT, that is. However, I saw a few Gold Standard books available. I've never tried those, so not sure how good they are. Maybe I'll download the sample.

I think the problem is that the Kindle (and readers in general) are great for passive reading, but not as useful for active reading and even less useful for workbooks. There's something beneficial about writing on a workbook or homework set that helps the learning process. I'm sure someone will introduce a Kindle-based MCAT book, because where there's money to be made some company will invent a product. But I don't think anything beyond a short and quick review of the various topics or a set of multiple choice free-standing questions for rapidfire quizzing will be effective.
