TBR Physics Advice

I got new Physics BR Books recently.

After doing the Section 1 (Translational Motion) 52-Question Practice Exam and the Section 2(Forces, Circular Motion, Gravitation) 52-Question Practice Exam I have been scoring in the 4-6 MCAT Scoring Scale. What do you recommend I do to improve? (I have been redoing questions I have gotten wrong then writing down my thought process on why I got it wrong and reading the answer explanations) Is it okay to continue to the next section after this even though I scored low?

BR physics is extremely hard...harder than the real mcat. I would recommend you to buy the EK 1001 physics. Do your content review in BR then go to EK to do problems that correspond to content review you just did in BR to solidify the concepts and go back to BR to do passages. That should increase your score. I just discovered that strategy and started doing it, and it has increased my score. I wish I knew that strategy since I started studying for the MCAT.

Very good strategy! I agree, first starting out doing passages takes some getting used to. I think the passages are the final test if you know the concepts. The EK 1001 reinforces ultimately what you just read in TBR. Kind of like lifting weights lol (no but seriously). EK 1001 is like doing light reps with less weight, and TBR passages is like doing less reps with more weight

GREAT advice, BestDoctorEver! I'll have to try this. I purchased the NOVA Physics book after hearing about it, so maybe this will help me do better on TBR.

Nice analogy, Invictus.
