4.0 out of 5 stars MCAT in a box review, July 6, 2009

The cards are great for enhancing your scientific vocabulary and reviewing topics you already know. They should not, however, be used as the only method of studying. Great product! Really helpful.

This review is from: Kaplan MCAT in a Box (Cards)

So far this product seems great... lots of things covered and the explinations are simple and to the point... not difficult to memorize at all... there are 700 flash cards and if you split it up you can probably finish this in 2 weeks to a month... depending on how much time you plan to use... Over all i think its going to be an effective product, i did pretty well on my first MCAT, 10's in both sciences, so this is good for refreshing and such!

The flash cards inside this box are numerous- covering all the topics in the three disciplines that will be tested on the MCAT. My only problem is that it tries to do too much. A good quarter of the cards cover terms I have hardly hear let alone used or needed to use.
Overall, it is a descent refresher; don't expect to learn much from this unless flash cards are your cup of tea.
