If you're up to medical school, you will already have surmounted substantial scholastic challenges and accomplished considerable scholastic success; you're no stranger to concepts such as hard work, study, and competition. It's not a matter of whether to review for the MCATs, but rather how to study and with which materials.
Kaplan has created the top MCAT course. They know which material needs to be reviewed, and they know the strategies that help you take the Medical College Admission Test most effectively. The MCAT requires that you be well versed in biology and basic chemistry, and, toward that end, Kaplan's review includes refresher chapters in embryology, homeostasis, and molecular genetics, as well as thermochemistry, atomic structure, and the gas phase. The organic chemistry chapter goes over everything from nomenclature to spectroscopy, while the chapter on physics covers magnetism, Newtonian mechanics, and nuclear phenomena.
The MCAT tests more, however, than your knowledge base. Medical schools can look at your transcripts if they want to know how you did in organic chemistry. The schools want to know how well you have integrated what you learned, and how well you can apply that knowledge. The MCAT tests cognitive skills such as reading comprehension, data analysis, critical reasoning, and writing ability, so Kaplan's chapters on verbal reasoning and essay writing are every bit as important as your comprehension of the endocrine system.
With answers and explanations in each science review chapter, a full-length practice MCAT with answers and explanations, and a CD-ROM that provides a timed practice test, detailed scoring analysis, and a personalized performance prep, Kaplan's MCAT review text will help you perform well, demonstrate what you've learned effectively, and continue on toward your goal. --Stephanie Gold
