The practice test is way too easy and the passages are extremely short
This is something that should be taken off the market. The practice test is way too easy and the passages are extremely short. This is not at all how the MCAT AAMC tests are. Save 25 bucks and buy something from somewhere else that will help you in your study.

For serious future doctors, DO NOT PASS UP THIS GREAT HELP!
The MCAT is viewed differently at different medical schools, some place it as "highest priority" in admissions, others (lie) and say it is meaningless; having been admitted to 4 of 4 med schools and 1 of 1 vet schools (chose vet school-younger and more idealistic) - and working for med school 10 years and seeing the "admissions game" nationwide, whatever your pre-med "advisor" tells you (bet $100 he never got into med school) - you better do your best on this test.This book is OUTSTANDING-especially for the money. I worked for Princeton Review, and the key to "maximizing your score" is hitting it-test conditions-frequently. For all you who will realize you are working for the patients, and "care" (don't be ashamed you want to make a good living, either) - I pray you have success and recommend this book. For you who want "your asses kissed" with "MD" after name, hope you avoid this book, go to a college like Centre in Ky or Miami of Ohio (two most delusional undergrad places I've dealt with), listen to your premed advisor with a degree in "sociology" (and never applied to med school) - and become an MBA instead.

Waste of money, not a good practice for a hard exam. Better of with princeton

Good practice but maybe not fully up-to-date?
These questions seem appropriately difficult, but I'm not sure how up-to-date they are. For example, the Chemical and Physical Foundations of Biological Systems section seemed to be only Organic Chemistry problems. I didn't see any General Chemistry or Biochemistry problems which I'm sure will be on the actual MCAT. Overall, I think these tests are good for practice and to see what you need to study, but I am probably going to buy other practice tests too. Let me know how this book works out for you or if what I said is wrong!

I do not recommend this book
The format of these practice exams is not in the same style as the new exam. I bought it and realized after just a few questions. I do not recommend this book. Good luck with the MCAT.

Outdated Practice Tests
Do NOT get this book. This book is not fully updated to the new question count, it has 65 questions in the practice tests whereas the new MCAT has 59 questions. McGraw-Hill needs to update these tests.

Completely unlike the actual exam. Don't waste your money

is nothing like the exam
This is awful, is nothing like the exam, a lot of the CARS answers are arbitrary and not well-supported. Just an all around terrible terrible resource; don't waste your time unless you've exhausted every other resource out there

There are better options out there
Has several errors and the online version is not convenient to use, only displays one question at a time for which you need to scroll all the way at the bottom to use and does not allow highlighting.The Chem/Physical sciences for test 1 seemed to have alot of organic chem... alot more than would be expectedgood practice I guess since there aren't too many options available.

Fairly useless.
They did not change the format of the book to fit into the new 2015 AAMC guidelines at all. Even the introduction talks about the old way of scoring the exam. Fairly useless.
