hello,
I am planning on taking the MCAT again in april so that just in case I get no love from any school this year, I'll get some next year. This post is to see if any of you are interested in selling me any practice MCATs that you may have. I specially will like to get the Kaplan practice MCATs as well as the Berkeley review ones. I already have most of the pricenton review ones. Anyways, this will be greatly appreciate it and if you have any tips on how to improve on the verbal section let me know (I can use the help),

Don,
I took the princeton review course and that gave a ton of practice tests. If you have any friends who have taken different courses- get their old tests. Thats probably the only way to get old tests other than mailing for the standard medical association tests that cost a few bucks each. If you are below a 10 in verbal-just take the verbal section over and over-at this point reading more probably could help a little. An MCAT course will help the most.
 
I took the Kaplan prep this past summer, but did not do too well on the MCAT. I'm planning to take it again this April. I would like to purchase the Princeton review books and princeton practice exams. I've heard they are much better than Kaplan's. Is anyone willing to lend them to me or sell them?
 
For verbal improvement I would recommend a few months of reading at a decent level, preferably in periodicals such as Science, Time, and others and do it at a fairly quick pace. Force yourself with everything you read to find the main point of every paragraph and article. Simultaneously do verbal passages every night. TPR has loads of verbal passages that are typically more difficult than the MCAT. I stayed on this schedule during the summer of 2000 and went from 6 to 11 on Verbal. It was definitely the hardest section for me. But with practice you can definitely do well. Anyway, lets hope that you get some med school love soon and you won't need any of this advice. Good luck.
 
Don, I have all the Berkeley Review exams. I can sell them to you cheap. They are in new condition. I had so much material that in the end I didn't have time to work through most of them. Since they are unused I will sell them to you at 55% of the original price and I'll pay shipping. You'll be saving 45% plus shipping costs. You can buy them directly from their website but you'll be paying full price, plus shipping and handling via fed ex. I as well have some unused Princeton review exams and a couple Kaplan exams. The best practice is taking full length tests.

if you're interested email me soon at [email protected]

I'll reply to your email with the exact number of tests I have and I'll quote you a cheap price

p.s. the berkeley review tests have full explanations as well as the other tests I have
