Great Study Tool November 14, 2009 A. Marshall (USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Kaplan MCAT Premier Program book is a wonderful study tool! You can use it to review all the concepts you may be rusty on from physics, chemistry and biology classes. Go Kaplan!

This book was amazing for MCAT studying. It has awesome tear out pages with formulas and such on them. It also covers all the basics you need to know for the exam. Happy studying!!

A Soild Backbone for any MCAT Preparation June 5, 2009 JCousteau 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
Kaplan's Premier Program was a pretty sound investment, and I used it a lot more than the Exam Krackers material that I also used in my preparation. They are good complements to each other, in my opinion.
I think EK is a little more "user-friendly" as far as presenting information, though.
Anyway, there's a lot of breadth in this book, with appropriate depth, especially in the organic chemistry and biology sections. The cell metabolism and and cell cycle sections were really, really solid, I grew to love reviewing them, haha.
The "clinical correlates" and "Kaplan exclusives" really aren't that useful in my opinion, because they are rather superficial and too short.
I was happy with the chemistry and physics sections, though more practice problems would have been nice.
The book's practice sections could have used tested your critical thinking abilities a little more, but for that, I'd recommend MCAT 45 or "MCAT Advanced" as I think it's called now.
I scored in the 85th percentile in April 2009, and I owe a lot of that to practice and drills from the Kaplan online course, but this book formed the backbone of my study. Focus on getting the content down, then testing yourself.
After reading this a couple of times and studying it really thoroughly, and memorizing a lot, you'll be able to do well on the MCAT, provided you have good critical thinking abilities and can successfully apply what you know to novel situations.
Excellent For Content and Practice May 24, 2009 Navin N. Singh (Saint Petersburg, FL, USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book has the best content review of any book. But because it is 1100 pages, you MUST start reviewing well in advance- at least 2 to 3 months in advance- of your MCAT exam. The content is extensive, you cannot procrastinate. The content review is excellent and comprehensive; practice questions help with developing analytical skills essential for the MCAT. I would recommend buying the AAMC 8 Practice Tests after completing this mostly content based book. Use this book for content.
