Finish the passage if your time runs out but take notes to track your overtime. Phase-II will help reinforce each topic while feeling the exam’s time pressure. Phase II:Ī few days to one week after working through phase-I, complete the corresponding phase-II problem set. It is also wise to record your score at the top of each passage to track your progress. We advise working directly in the books and taking notes next to each problem you get incorrect. DO NOT worry about question timing on phase-I homework as you are reintroducing yourself to each topic. Read a chapter in the book and within 24 hours complete the corresponding phase-I problem set. Each chapter totals between 15-22 associated MCAT-style passages broken down into three distinct problem sets (i.e., homework phases). For Biological, Chemical, and Physical Sciences, we use a three-phase approach. The Berkeley Review’s suggested approaches for applied content review varies depending on the subject. The books are not only the best and most thorough way to study for the MCAT, but have slowly become valuable undergraduate tools for premedical students to use as content aides in their prerequisite courses (e.g., general chemistry, organic chemistry, physics) and upper division biology courses (e.g., biochemistry, physiology, cell biology).Īpart from the detailed content chapters, TBR books are highly regarded in the market for their sheer number of challenging MCAT style passages after each subject – over 7,000 passage-based questions within the entire book set! Completing these passages is the single most important task before starting your practice full-length exams in fact, we have found there is a strong correlation between the number of TBR passages completed and MCAT score.īiological, Chemical, and Physical Sciences Book Approach The Berkeley Review MCAT review books have gone through 18 editions total, and have been redesigned and rewritten to evolve with each new iteration of the MCAT dating back to the old paper and pencil versions of the test. It’s finally time to orient yourself with the material – let the fun begin! So, you have done your due diligence and researched the best ways to prepare for the MCAT.
