Rating:  - Good approach for tackling verbal reasoning
MCAT Verbal Reasoning & Mathematical techniques provides the reader with key insight into deciphering verbal reasoning passage questions.

Rating:  - Great little book!
This is a small book that is a great asset to anyone taking the MCAT. I took Kaplan and the strategies in this book is better than any Kaplan verbal strategy.

Rating: - It works
I tried using the strategies of another large test prep company (the one I work for now, actually) and the best I could do after 3 months was a 9. After 2 weeks with this book, I was regularly getting an 11, and that's what I got on the MCAT. If I had just picked up this book earlier, I probably would've gotten 12+.
Bottom line: If you're taking a TPR/Kaplan course right now, forget what your verbal teacher says and just go by this book.

Rating: - A Very Nice Guide
This is a very good book when you want to start working on the MCAT's verbal section. However, it does not have enough passages to practice.
