There are also study tips—expanded in this new edition—as well as test-taking advice and an overview of the medical profession as it exists today.
Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating: - Bad all over
Take the last three reviews on this website seriously. This review is utterly terrible. If there was ever a book that warranted a toss to the dumpster, it was this one. The reviews are negligible, the tests are terrible, and the advice is bad! For example, it advises you to use textbooks to study and the electrochemistry review is literally a third of a page long with no formulas. Please don't buy this book.
Rating: - Waste of time
Save you time and money and don't buy this book. I check it out from our local public library. Still it's a waste of my time to borrow it. This book got mistakes all over the place and the model tests are way easier than the real test.
Rating: - Plain awful.
It defies explanation how a book could be this bad. The material throughout much of the book has nothing to do with the actual exam, it's often wrong, and full of mistakes. Save your money!
Rating: - Save your money
This book is very, very out of date. Don't waste your time or your money. The exams also have a wierd different format. Invest in Exam krackers, Kaplan or Princeton.
Rating:  - meh...
This book is ok - not wonderful. The review of sciences was pretty in-depth. There was way more information in it and more complicated information than what was on the real MCAT. The 4 sample examinations were not good - nothing like the real MCAT. Science passages had a different format from the real thing - more passages based on prior memorized information than on-the-spot critical reasoning. The verbal reasoning was much MUCH easier in this book than the real thing - very misleading.
