MCAT

[Premed315U]

Hi Everyone,

I'm studying for the April MCAT, and I'm aiming for high 30s. Should I use ExamKrackers? Princeton Review? Or Columbia Review? I'm considering using the Princeton Review for studying everything, and then doing a more specific review of each topic with either ExamKrackers or Columbia Review. Please let me know your thoughts and experiences with these books.

Thanks bunches

I liked the Columbia Review, but I only scored in the low thirties. I'd also say that I did not use the books to their fullest potential. Yes, I slacked a little.

As far as the other choices you mentioned, I never used them, so I don't have an opinion about them. Good luck with whatever sources you opt for.

Kaplan is best. Their library is wonderful - by far better than TPR. Specifically, you'll get just WAY too many mistakes in the TPR stuff.

ExamKrackers is great too,but in a different sorta way. Make sure to use their two 1001 questions books on Orgo and physics - they're great (particularly the physics one).

Good luck on your exam
