Welcome to MCAT Self Prep!

“The motivation to create the MCAT Self Prep eCourse came from my own experience in preparing for the MCAT. While most of my friends were spending thousands on a prep course, I decided to study on my own. I quickly learned that there are many prep materials out there, but there is little verified information regarding which ones are the most effective and how to use them in an organized study plan. After scoring in the 99th percentile using my own study plan, I conducted a thorough analysis of other students who had achieved high scores, took what I learned, and created this free eCourse. Since the creation of this program, several students have followed it to achieve 100th percentile MCAT scores. I hope you accomplish the same as you utilize this eCourse, and please feel free to reach out with any questions along the way. I am always here to help.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this really free?

Yes! Our eCourse is 100-percent FREE! Our Free eCourse includes the MCAT Launchpad, MCAT Bootcamp, our 10 Content Modules, Weekly MCAT Study Tips, MCAT Questions of the Day, our Facebook Study Group, and much more! All of this is available to you completely free of charge.

How can it be free!?

We will be completely honest with you — maintaining a high-quality website, especially one which allows users to make their own account and track their study progress, is not cheap. MCAT Self Prep is also a source of income for those who work to make it the best MCAT prep option out there. In order to pay the bills, so to speak, we offer account upgrades in the form of affordable Pro Plans, Premium Strategy Course, and Elite Private Tutoring Packages. These are completely optional, but many students have found them to be extremely useful in boosting their MCAT score.

What makes your program better than an alternative?

MCAT Self Prep is built on a solid foundation of research concerning how students have achieved 95th+ percentile MCAT scores on the new MCAT. Our research revealed that students who achieve MCAT success use a wide-variety of resources and center their studying around the practice problems produced by the AAMC, the writers of the actual MCAT. Other programs will tell you to use their resources and have you center your studying around only those. In contrast, we help you study in the best way possible by focusing all your study efforts around increasing your scores on the AAMC practice problems. We do this by organizing a wide-variety of study resources into a single organized prep course that students love. We are confident that you will love it too!

What should I expect as I start the free eCourse?

Here is what Jonathan had to say the day after he started using our eCourse: “I want to thank you for creating such a wonderful, straightforward program. I stumbled on the MCAT self prep website amidst searching for answers on what type of test prep is best for the MCAT. Your website and course is so honest and easy to follow I had to keep refreshing the page to make sure it wasn’t fake! Thank you so much!” We get comments like this from new students all the time!

How do I get started?

To start studying right away, simply click here and create your free account. From there, you should complete the MCAT Launchpad, which will give you a clear overview of the eCourse, teach you how to attain a top MCAT score, and help you decide what materials to use. After that, feel free to start studying away! 🙂

If you have a unique situation, have a lot of questions, or are looking for a confirmation that you are making the right purchase, you will likely benefit from consultation with our Head Tutor, Andrew George. He has worked one-on-one with hundreds of diverse students and will carefully consider your unique situation as he provides a careful recommendation and answers your questions.

How we Matched up the Khan Academy Passages with the eCourse Lessons

Each lesson of the eCourse contains links to 1 to 5 Khan Academy science passages for the purpose of providing you with non-AAMC material to practice your science passage reading skills on. By completing all the linked passages within every lesson, you will have finished all the freely available Khan Academy science passages.

To match up the Khan Academy Science Passages with the eCourse lessons, we carefully examined the passage and question content of each one. Then we decided which lesson of the eCourse best correlated with that content. You may notice that some passages don’t match up perfectly with the current lesson. If they don’t match up with the current lesson, they should match up with one of the previous lessons in the module. We did this carefully so that you could practice your science passage reading skills on passages that contain the content you’ve already learned.

Why we don’t recommend non-AAMC CARS practice questions

We recommend practicing CARS by reading non-AAMC CARS passages but not doing the associated practice problems. The reason we don’t recommend doing the practice problems is because the MCAT is written by the AAMC. They have a very unique style in which they write CARS practice questions that third-party companies (try as they might) are unable to replicate. When students spend time on non-AAMC CARS practice problems, they get familiar with the wrong style of questioning, leading them to overthink and incorrectly respond to the questions written by the AAMC. Thus, it is in your best interest to solely practice on AAMC CARS practice questions.

That said, we highly recommend practicing your reading skills on non-AAMC CARS passages. In our Ultimate CARS Strategy Course, we provide you with 1,000 free CARS passages and 100+ homework assignments, giving you ample material to practice on. Reading countless passages while practicing the proper reading habits and strategies will prepare you well to conquer the CARS section as it was written by the AAMC.

Which books do the lessons match up with?

The books we use in each lesson are linked below. We plan to stick with these older editions of the books since very little has changed and the older editions are much more affordable:

First Edition of the Kaplan 7-book Series
First Edition of the Princeton 7-book Series

Do the chapters match up perfectly?

The Kaplan Books, Princeton Books, and Khan Academy Videos were all produced by different authors. For this reason, there are some chapters in the Kaplan Book or Princeton Book that are not even found in the Khan Academy Videos and vice versa. For instance, the Kaplan and Princeton Books have chapters that cover certain experimental procedures that the Khan Academy Videos do not cover.

Our goal in matching up the books with the videos was to correlate the content as best as possible while also covering ALL the content from every resource. For this reason, when nothing in the Kaplan Books matched up with one of the video playlists, instead of leaving the reading assignment for Kaplan blank, we inserted material that did not fit in anywhere else (i.e. one of those chapters on an experimental procedure that was not covered by Khan Academy). So, when the assignment doesn’t appear to match up right, please know that this was intentional.

*If you follow the reading assignments outlined, you will finish the entire Kaplan 7-book series and/or Princeton 7-book series by the time you finish all 10 content modules.

Do the sections match up perfectly?

If the sections assigned in our eCourse do not match up with the sections contained in your content review book, you may have a different edition. The sections should still match up the large majority of the time, but in the rare instance that they don’t, I’d recommend simply reading sections that do match up and saving the ones that do not for a future lesson.
