Hi,

Just a quick question. I've got the old TPRH books (both the science workbook and verbal) that I got in 2014 for the old MCAT. Do I need to get the new TPRH books to study correctly for the new MCAT? Or is the verbal workbook only good to me now? I know they changed the science based questions.

Thanks so much!

I would say that you are find with the old book that you already have. Based on my understanding the only real difference is about 30 passages of Psychology/Sociology passages. Therefore, decide for yourself if you need to purchase the new book for the P/S passages. The verbal book is just reformatted and removed the science type passages that are not like the new CARS.
