Rating:  out of 5 stars - Thank god I'm not the only one!!!
I worked through the 6 biological sections and found multiple mistakes. Eventhough my copy is from 96, they still haven't changed the test format in the 2000 revision. In fact all of the incorrect answers are still in the new book.
A few caveats; 1. the review sections aren't the worst. I read through them for a general level of understanding. For any in depth information refer to a textbook. 2. The physical science section is difficult. However, if you can work through the tests it ... Read More

Rating:  out of 5 stars - This book is not as good as it promises to be.
Although this book does have six full exams as promised, they are not in proper mcat format and do not match the difficulty level of the real exam. It is an O.K. book if you want to reinforce the basics, but your performance on these exams would be a poor indicator on how you would do on the actual test.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - what a waste
this is a really terrible book! The verbal section has only 7 passages. It really messes your timing up when you are really taking the test. Plus, the questions are a joke. The physical sciences and bio. sections are filled with errors, which required way too many calculations in a timed test. The mcat is about timing, strategy, and intelligence. This text fails at two out of these three criteria. The latter is due inheritance. And the editor claims that this text is up-to-date(Actual Publishing ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Way off the mark!
This book features six "mcat-like" exams that are anything but "mcat-like". This is especially true for the sciences, notably the physical science sections. Quite simply, the exams ask you to do way too much calculating (with numbers that are next to impossible to handle without a calculator) and the real tests aren't like that. You can't do all that math (which you won't have to on the real thing) and keep your pace up. Don't bother with it.
