Study Guides for the MCAT Exam!

This guide contains the weekly, step-by-step plan Dr. Suzanne M. Miller used to get into Harvard Medical School. She has since utilized the strategy to help hundreds of applicants gain entry into medical school first as a Harvard pre-med tutor and then as CEO of MDadmit, a medical school admissions consulting service. Following this handbook's advice will provide you a distinct advantage in the competitive medical school admissions process as it prepares you for every step and helps create your best application. Book Highlights include: 1. Weekly, easy-to-follow advice on navigating the complex admissions process. 2. Multiple examples of successful personal statements, AMCAS work/activities, secondary essays, and letter of intent/update letters. 3. Special sections on reapplicants, non-traditional applicants, DO schools, and foreign schools.

Completely revised and expanded for the 2015 MCAT, Barron's New MCAT test prep manual with enclosed CD-ROM provides test takers with an in-depth, easy-to-use science review and a set of often-neglected but critical strategies for test taking that cover timing, test anxiety, scientific problem solving, and critical analysis and reasoning. These strategies have been developed by the book's team of authors, based on their many years of hands-on MCAT training experience. The new edition's highlights include:

• Expanded science review chapters that specifically cover test topics as recommended by the AAMC and are designed to give students an understanding of concepts rather than merely presenting facts for them to memorize.
• Comprehensive review of the new content areas--Biochemistry, Psychology, and Sociology--as they will be tested on the new MCAT
• Practice MCAT tests that have been carefully designed to represent the specific patterns of actual MCAT questions and passages
• A comprehensive, multi-month study plan

Every year medical school admissions get more competitive, making a high score on the MCAT an essential part of a candidate’s application. At a time when fewer than 40 percent of students who apply get accepted to any school, while top institutions routinely accept fewer than 10 percent of all applicants, prospective students must stand out among the crowd.

This book includes:

• Up-to-date test information and restructured exams that incorporate the 2013 changes to the MCAT
• Four full-length practice tests, including two new computer-based exams
• Detailed answer explanations for every question in all practice tests
• Five full chapters of strategies, covering each major section of the test

The MCAT is being entirely overhauled in 2015—and students planning on taking the test after January 2015 need to prepare for an exam that's almost one-and-a-half times longer and a lot tougher. The Princeton Review's Complete MCAT is an all-in-one resource designed specifically for MCAT 2015 test-takers, covering every facet of this challenging and important test.
