assuming they are well taught and in-depth, would this be enough for MCAT if supplemented with say, EK and BR? Also, any of these topics not worth looking at?

I think EK and BR orgo would be enough. I love EK orgo.

People seem to **** on EK orgo all day long but I think its great. Theres a reason they don't put everything in EK orgo...you don't need everything! Honestly- I'm finding EK books are all you need if you did well in your undergrad classes. They are just like refreshers to me for stuff I already know

yes, this is does look sufficient. the main part of my orgo prep for the mcat was my orgo lecture and lab - all i did on top of that was memorize a handful of reactions, and i did just fine.

regarding your second question, i would recommend knowing all of the material listed for that on-line course. if you're short on time and absolutely cannot learn it all, i would say that the spec and nmr material is the least important (although knowing it will surely help), simply because all the other material is very much interdependent.

According to the AAMC BS Topics list, alkenes are no longer tested on the MCAT.
Just keep that in mind...
