update mcat study materials?

[coffeebeans]

Hi everyone

I was wondering if anyone knows if the MCAT study materials have changed much in the last few years. I have study materials from The Berkeley Review which is pretty extensive in its review of the sciences, but they are quite a few years old. I want to retake the MCAT again this August. Can I still study off of this material? or has the MCAT changed so much content wise that I need to invest in new books? Besides the format and the increased emphasis on genetics in the Bio section, what else has changed on the test?

thanks for your help!

you should still be golden. I have the older version of berkley review, and it seems great. The big changes to MCAt were in 1990's, and other than that- they just recently put more emphasis on moecular bio and genetics, and organic chem is now only 25 % of the BS. ( in other words usually only 2-3 passages on it). The material asked is the same though.
