How is the NS 108 Q breakdown? I got the AAMC official guide and it says:
30% skill 1 (main idea, detail-related)
30% skill 2 (strengthen/weaken, assumption, inference, detail function)
40% skill 3 (application, incorporation, going beyond the text to new scenarios)
The EK 101 book has nat sci passages, which makes 1/3 of the book irrelevant to the new section. I flipped through it in B&N and the convoluted explanations I see in some of their explanations (like
HERE) don't bode well for learning much I can use on the real thing.
Does the NS 108 book do better for explanations, passage content and Q breakdown? I don't mind it being tougher so long as its just as "logical" as the AAMC CARS stuff.
I checked out the Khan CARS and man, do you get what you pay for. I cannot find the NS book in any stores and the amazon page doesn't let me preview it. Can anyone comment on the above? I'd love to have a nice, solid reference for CARS practice w/o wasting my full lengths (I already have AAMC Q packs).
