Summary: Great review book!
Comment: The book is very helpful at explaining broad concepts in a few short words and is extremely useful for cummulative review. Although I haven't read through the entire book yet, I would recommend it to any other students studying for the MCAT.

Summary: A good REVIEW -not a miracle worker
Comment: I havent taken the MCAT yet, so I suppose I really wont know until then just how much this book helped me. The review is pretty extensive although it is only a REVIEW. If you're looking for something that teaches you a subject -this isn't your book. This is for people who have taken the classes and just need a refresher. Also some of the strategies aren't for everyone. Adapt what they tell you to meet your own abilities. If reading comprehension isn't a problem for you, don't waste your time taking notes during the exam like they suggest.
Although I have run across a few typos, its nothing horribly distracting unless you're OCD and can't move on. No matter which MCAT book you buy, there will be errors. The book is meant to review and give you strategies. You're not supposed to internalize everything they say.
Overall I think the book is a pretty good deal considering a Kaplan class costs a few thousand dollars. The book is pretty well organized and the color pages are much better than the black and white pictures in past editions.

Summary: Great Review Book and CD!
Comment: Book has extensive review of all the subject areas which are both concise and thorough. Easy way to separate study time and what topics you want to cover for the day (ie: chapters 5 and 6 on Monday for Biology, chapters 7 and 8 on Tuesday for Physics, etc.). CD is also very nice with its own Diagnostic test to give you an idea of what you need to cover. I would recommend getting another book with more review questions however since the practice tests that come with the program encompass the entire subjects and not just certain areas you may get to covering. Also, may be good to supplement the book with other background/informative books if you are having trouble understanding some concepts. Nonetheless, I say this bok is a great buy and highly recommended.
