From the Author

Audio books are not a novelty or gimmick, but can provide a genuinely better way to learn the immense range of facts, formulas and theories demanded in preparation for entrance exams. Striking just the right balance between the rigorous demands of serious academic learning and the informality of a conversation with your best-loved teacher, the series takes full advantage of the established and well-proven methodologies of learning through listening. It’s a powerful and recognized method best suited to memorizing massive amounts of information - probably most widely exploited in the teaching of languages and universally employed by all the major language schools.

3.0 out of 5 stars Mr. Sulu does voicework?, August 4, 2005

This review is from: AudioLearn: MCAT (Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics) (Audio CD)

I bought these CDs a year after buying AudioOsmosis, after the once annoying jokes became something far, far worse. Audiolearn lacks these distractions, however suffers from a problem that I hadn't anticipated: AudioLearn is as stiff as AudioLearn is corny.

AudioLearn and Audio Osmosis seem to get to the same place in their own ways. Neither is perfect. Both are helpful. Both CDs were created by highly credentialed people. They cover the same information, which bolsters the faith you can have that you're studying the proper material.

AudioLearn:
-- Lectures are quite long (up to 18 minutes)
-- -- One track discusses several topics, thus making it difficult to locate specific information
-- No track listing is enclosed
-- Stiff (No contractions, no pronouns, repetitive word use)
-- -- For instance, when discussing the naming of alkanes:
-- -- -- "If the number of carbons is one, you say meth, if it is two you say eth, three you say prop, four you say but, five you say pent, six you say hex, seven you say hept, eight you say oct, nine you say non, ten you say dec."
-- Narrator sounds like Mr Sulu
-- No jokes, no sound effects
-- Mnemonics...sort of
-- -- To remember the signal that causes heart contraction: "just think of the letters SABP"... 'cause that's catchy.

AudioOsmosis:
-- Short lectures make it easy to find a particular topic
-- The jokes, gongs, applause, & laughtrack distract
-- -- They account for 20% of the lecutres
-- -- I can't stress enough how distracting they are
-- Jordan & John's co-narration makes listening more intersting
-- MAMA: Mnemonics Are Memory Aids

5.0 out of 5 stars By far the best MCAT PREP!, December 16, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: AudioLearn : MCAT (Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics)- 4th Edition (Audio CD)

A fabulous product. It brought my score from a 7 to a 9 on the Bio section and from a 8 to a 10 on the Physical science section. I listened to these tapes in the morning while driving to school and on the way back, and they really helped. You'll remember alot more than you think. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

This review is from: AudioLearn : MCAT (Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics)- 4th Edition (Audio CD)

These tapes are the best way to really understand the information needed to excel on the MCAT. I was amazed with the amount of information I was able to retain and understand by just listening to these tapes. They are very well organized too. I think this is a great way to solidify the information needed to do really well on the MCAT.
