Product Description

As medical school admissions get more and more competitive, a high score on the MCAT is essential. Fewer than 40 percent of the students who apply get accepted to any school, and the top institutions routinely accept fewer than 10 percent of all applicants. MCAT score is one of the most important factors considered by admissions officers, so getting the strongest score possible is imperative. From the creators of the #1 MCAT course, Kaplan MCAT 2010-2011 Premier is a pre-medical student’s interactive guide to test success. It is the only guide on the market with access to four full-length MCAT practice tests; a full-color portable study guide featuring charts, graphs, and diagrams; online teaching videos for every chapter; and effective tips and strategies for test day success. Inside, the book features two full-length verbal reasoning tests; expert biology, chemistry, organic chemistry, and physics review; and detailed answer explanations. This comprehensive program also includes an online component which features an interactive study planner that provides a personalized syllabus, fresh practice questions every month, and subject-specific quizzes.

The number of medical school applicants increases every year. Since Kaplan gets more people into medical school than anyone else, Kaplan MCAT Premier is the expert and comprehensive choice they will turn to for MCAT mastery.
