Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I run private tutoring courses for the MCAT, and I would say that this book is arguably the best source for MCAT Verbal Reasoning questions, aside from the real exams from AAMC.(Needless to say, I use this book in my course.)The writer accurately captures most aspects of the real exam, including passage length, question wording, distribution of question types, and ambiguity of the correct answers.The only major flaw that I find with this book is that some answer choices are not well supported (even taking into account the fact that the correct answers on the MCAT are supposed to be somewhat ambiguous).In some cases, there are blatant errors in the question stem or stated correct answers, or, more rarely, two equally correct answer choices.For this reason, I would rate this book 4.5 stars, but since Amazon doesn't let me do that, I will give it 5 stars.:)On the actual MCAT, the incorrect answer choices are usually a little more differentiated from the correct answer.These mistakes and imperfections are frequent enough to be a little annoying, but not abundant or major enough to topple this book off the pedestal of being the best VR preparation book out there.Kaplan's and Princeton Review's materials do not quite compare (especially Kaplan's, which contain too many explicit detail questions).Keep in mind that the questions in this book are probably going to be slightly more difficult than the real MCAT questions, which are not quite as tricky.Have fun and good luck.
