With the first round of the new MCAT just around the corner now let\u2019s talk about the range of your study arsenal! A lot of MCAT resources out there are outdated and tailored for the old\/current test rendering them to be of little real help for the MCAT 2015 beast! The word beast<\/strong> is not an understatement. This test isn\u2019t just longer, it’s definitely harder:<\/p>\n

AAMC MCAT 2015 Interactive Guide<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Association of American Medical College<\/a> thankfully has laid everything out pretty clearly covering all the bases of the MCAT 2015. Using their interactive guide<\/strong> here<\/a> you can explore explicitly stated tested material and even check out sample questions with explanations! The AAMC also sells<\/em> a book guide to the test along with sample question for $35 here<\/a> but with the MCAT 2015 costing $300 itself this guide is not totally necessary. Then there is their full-length<\/strong> practice test for $25 here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Khan Academy Tutorial Videos<\/span><\/h3>\n

The AAMC with the Khan Academy has also released over 100 videos on numerous topics to be tested for free<\/strong>. Just by using your AAMC log in, you can access the video tutorials here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Class Notes & Textbooks<\/span><\/h3>\n

These are your best tools for studying and reviewing and since you took tests for these classes already you know the best ways to study for you. Stick to these strategies when studying for the MCAT.<\/span> The saying \u201ctreat it like a class\u201d<\/strong> is real. Using the AAMC guide mentioned earlier as well a guide is the best thing you can really do. Since the material is laid out so well you can pin point areas for review. Commonly students tend to spend too much time reviewing material while spending not enough energy on practicing\u2026<\/p>\n
