MCAT Self Prep

The MCAT loves to test your understanding of the amino acids, and many students who have taken the 2015 MCAT have reported that questions about amino acids came up over and over again. The difference between knowing and not knowing your amino acids may be the difference between scoring a 510 and a 515 on test day. Knowing these biomolecules inside and out is key to getting a top MCAT score. Getting a clear understanding of amino acids can be difficult because every resource will tell you something different, but my mastery course gets straight to the point, telling you exactly what to memorize without wasting your time on petty details.

"I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to know the amino acids inside and out for test day" - Praheetha

In 2015, the MCAT added a new section to the MCAT — the notorious Behavioral Science Section. This section requires you to know both psychology and sociology terms inside and out. Like the other sections of the MCAT, this section focuses on applying concepts, but more so than the other sections, the Behavioral Science section wants you to understand how the definitions of similar terms differ from one another. The Behavioral Science Booster Course makes this possible through fun and interactive learning games that allow you to learn these definitions through and through.

“Choosing the right materials to use is difficult, but this is EVERYTHING I need! the definitions are short and simple plus practice. AMAZING!” - Stephanie

The metabolic pathways get tested on the MCAT over and over again. Although the MCAT doesn't expect you to know every single thing about every single biochemical pathway, they do expect you to have the key details of the most important pathways memorized to a T. And that is the purpose of this course — To give you the tools you need to quickly and efficiently refresh your memory on only the most important biochemical pathways, the ones the MCAT is very likely to challenge you with on test day. And best of all, you should be able to complete this course in a matter of hours as compared to the hundreds of hours it would take you to re-memorize the mountain of notes from your previous biochemistry course.

"The Metabolic Pathways course is the perfect way to memorize each pathway quickly, and efficiently. I highly recommend this course to anyone who is willing to work hard in hopes of achieving a top score on the MCAT!" - Vineet

Because the AAMC doesn't specify which equations you should and should not remember, it is extremely difficult to know which equations are worth the time and effort of memorizing. Most prep books list 300+ equations, but most of these equations will be provided to you on test day, so it is a waste of your time to memorize all of them. In an effort to solve this dilemma, I've sorted through the fluff to give you a list of the only equations you should spend your time on. You won't waste your time memorizing equations that the AAMC will more than likely provide for you on test day or equations that are easy as pie (i.e. F = ma) and not worth your precious study time. The 100 equations in my course are only the most high-yield, allowing you to quickly feel 100-percent ready for any calculation on test day.

"I started out very overwhelmed by the number of equations my review books gave me, but the Equations Course did a great job of narrowing down my focus on what equations are most important." - Alyssa

Running out of time can be a nightmare on the MCAT, costing you precious points that you otherwise would have easily been able to capture. MCAT math is especially intimidating because you are not permitted to use a calculator, yet you are being asked to solve calculations that seem nigh to impossible without one. Logs, square roots, and even trigonometry are all fair game on the MCAT. My high-speed math mastery course will walk you through all the math that the MCAT might throw at you in a very gradual, step-by-step manner over the course of 10 easy-to-follow lessons. Each lesson contains a Quizlet that will allow you to practice what you are learning, and this mastery course contains over 450 practice problems, which will leaving you feeling 100 percent confident in your math abilities.

"I learned so many little math tricks that will save me precious time while taking the detail-heavy science sections of the MCAT. I would definitely recommend this product to other students who want to develop the ability to do MCAT math problems fast." - Jessica

Some MCAT concepts are tested over and over again while others are almost never tested at all, and having conducted hundreds of tutoring sessions, I have a unique perspective on which MCAT concepts are well-tested as well as which concepts tend to cause students the most trouble. Each lesson is like a virtual tutoring session with me in which I will carefully explain the key aspects of each concept, the aspects that the MCAT is most likely to test you on. By purchasing this course, you are getting 20+ private tutoring sessions (normally a $3,500 value) worth of essential information – the same information that I teach to lead my private tutoring students to 100th percentile MCAT scores.

"Andrew's focus is not on helping you score better on a testing company's version of the MCAT, but on the actual AAMC exam. As a result of his guidance, I've seen steady improvement in my ability to gain points on the AAMC style questions." - Julia

MCAT science passages are a nightmare with their run-on sentences, lack of clarity, and countless confusing definitions. Being able to understand the passages is one thing, but add in the time pressure, and tackling these passages feels next to impossible. Our Science Passage Reading Strategy Course helps you overcome this challenge through teaching you key reading strategies. Each of the 10 strategies comes with a written description, a 60-minute Virtual Video Session with our Head Tutor, Andrew, and countless homework assignments. By the time you finish this course, each strategy will feel second-nature to you, making these previously challenging passages much easier to process.

"Andrew describes his strategies on exam day, and he walks you through many passages, showing you his step-by-step process. Science passages are the most difficult for me, but after reading his strategies, much simpler." - Jenny

Some students are able to sit down and score a perfect 132 on their very first attempt at the CARS section. How are they able to do it without having received any prior instruction? It is because they are Good Readers, quickly understanding what they read. The good news it that you can learn to become a Good Reader, and research shows that the very best way is through learning reading strategies. The course teaches 10 key strategies over the course of 10 Strategy Modules. Each Strategy Module includes a written description, a 45-minute Virtual Video Session with our Head Tutor, Andrew, and countless homework assignments. Private sessions with Andrew currently cost hundreds of dollars, but as part of this course it is like getting ten for the price of one. He's helped many of his students improve their CARS scores by over 40 percentile points. You can too.

"I highly recommend this course for anyone looking to increase their efficiency and scores while reading CARS passages. You will not regret it!" - River

Out of 53,042 students who applied to medical school in 2017, 31,011 students did not gain acceptance to a single medical school. That means the typical applicant has a 58 percent chance of being completely rejected. Because even the simplest application error can result in an entire year of wasted time and money, we created this course to help you stay on track. It will help you stay 100-percent organized so that nothing falls through the cracks as you prepare a stellar application. While other prep companies charge over $2000 for their application helper programs, this course comes with double the value for a quarter the price. The tools that we've developed come from Andrew's personal experience gaining acceptance to multiple top-25 medical schools, and everything taught in this course is based on countless up-to-date statements from admissions committee members at elite medical schools. Instead of relying on misinformation, stay on the right track to medical school acceptance by following the dependable advice contained in our Medical School Application Course.

"Andrew and the MCAT Self Prep team have successfully put together a comprehensive and straightforward guide to getting into medical school." - Dr. Grant
