why is TBR passages (BIOLOGY) so detail-oriented? does anyone feel this way?
i feel like it's so hard to find answers in the passage.. it all has to be from background knowledge it seems like.

should i even bother doing passages?

hope this was worth $$$.

Yes, it requires a more in-depth background knowledge, but you can find it (if not always explicitly) in the passage if you know what to look for. It could even be something that is subtle. Also, it's usually better to eliminate the ones that are definitely wrong. Half the time, TBR gives answer choices that are pretty specific and you just have figure out which ones are false.

I am also doing TBR Bio right now. It is definitely more detailed than Kaplan or EK. The details are also pretty random...like 2 full pages on blot clotting pathway. Some passage questions seem to be more educational than anything else, meaning the answer explanations simply add to the review instead of evaluating it.

When I was studying, I thought TBR Biology was too hard for the MCAT so I relied on EK 1001. However, the BS section on the real MCAT I took was probably in between EK and TBR in terms of difficulty, i.e., slightly harder than EK but not as hard/detail-oriented as TBR.
