4.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, December 27, 2000

I was looking for an MCAT reveiw book for my son. I came across this one in our campus bookstore. I found it to be well organized, well written, and nearly complete. However, the biology section is missing at least one key topic - a discussion and a schematic drawing of the nephron. Perhaps this deficieny will be taken off in the next edition.

This book has little known facts, stratagies, and techniques for scoring well on the MCAT and also gaining entrance into medical school. It's a great book for those who are just begining the long process of studying for the MCAT exam. This won't be nearly enough information to cover all the bases for the MCAT, but it will answer most of your questions about the MCAT and what type of score you need to attain. It also briefly mentions some medical schools and an overview of their avarage admission statistics. It does fail to give information about osteopathic medical schools, however, which is a significant drawback. Otherwise it is highly recommended for potential medical school applicants.
