I ended up taking the plunge on a Princeton Review MCAT LiveOnline course back in April. I took the MCAT in August and would like to share my experiences here. First, I'll share what I liked about the course. 1) The MCAT LiveOnline course is completely identical in content to TPR's classroom courses, plus is a few hundred dollars cheaper.
Many people whom take the initial princeton diagnostic tend to score up to 14 points higher on the real exam from what they scored on the initial. I've seen with most people that I knew, whom got a 23 or 24 on their first diag, generally got a 36 or 37 on the real deal, while those whom I knew got a 16 on first diag, generally went up to 28-30 ...
There are two available options for Princeton Review books for me. There's the 7-book set and the "all-in-one" set. I will be taking the MCAT August 3rd, and will be in europe for two weeks in july. What are the differences between the two sets? Which is better for my timeline?
I used Princeton Review for the subjects I needed a total review on (i.e. from scratch), and then used Examkrackers for every subject to tighten up my performance. Loved them both, think they are both really good at what they are trying to accomplish (PR is very comprehensive, EK is very efficent) and they complimented each other well.
Back when we (TBR) were in business (we stopped running MCAT review classes in 2021), we often had students sit in for a few lectures to help them decide if the course was a fit for them. What surprised me the first few times was that it was also a chance for us (the teachers) to see if we could work well with a student.
For anyone with recent MCAT scores (withing past 6 months, esp. 1/31 test) and took Princeton Review course: 1. Which set was harder? Practice or real test? 2. How do your actual and practice scores compare? 3. Did the course lack in preparing for any areas? Thanks for the feedback.
anyone here tried the Princeton Review DEMO MCAT practice tests (this is one of the three tests available online if you have purchased one of their review books)? Is it me or is the chemical and physical foundations portion of the test really difficult and draining? I got a headache reading the passages and answering the questions. =/
the PR books are very good, though they can get rather detailed, sometimes on topics that generally aren't really tested on the MCAT (for me personally). The science workbook offer great practice! Do the probs as much as you can.

In my opinion, The Gold Standard is a must-have, with comprehensive review notes on all the MCAT topics including sample tests and answers. In addition, the sample questions tended to be of a slightly higher calibre than the actual MCAT, which means you study to a higher level than is really necessary.
