Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Don't waste your time nor money
The answer keys are often wrong. Sometimes simply B instead of C, but several math errors where the correct answer they have listed is completely wrong. This book will underprepare you for the real PCAT. Avoid at all costs



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Do NOT purchase this book
This book appears to have been written by a 2nd grader. SO many typos, so many contradictions--and the reading comprehension, well let's just say that just about every question has two possible answers, ambiguous and opinionated. The typos alone make this book not worth purchasing. I'm going to have to buy a different book--do NOT under any circumstance buy this book--by the way, it's not really five exams--many of the same questions show up again and again throughout.

Great general review for the PCAT experience. Just plug through all five exams and use them as a means to identify weak areas. NOT a review or reference book. Few errors/typos stop this from being a 5.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Good PCAT prep

E.g., a question asked about the bioethical scientist's view on stem cell research. The direct statement from the passage states that the bioethical scientists want more stringent laws regarding the research, without ... Read More
