      Thank you very much for the comparison between the three main MCAT courses! Before I watched this video, I was leaning towards Kaplan solely based off my friends who already took the MCAT. However, this video made me realize that Princeton Review would be the best fit for my learning style because of their great online lectures. Thank you for your help!

    • @rogerskelton9673
      @rogerskelton9673 2 роки тому

      I was leaning Kaplan before, but probably Blueprint now because I am a very visual learner. I don't retain a whole lot with reading texts.

    I have used Blueprint's practice tests and loved the layout and explanations given for each question. I think their prep course would suit me well! I have the Kaplan prep books and I agree, they are one size fits all. For example, I struggle with limiting reagents, and the gen chem book only has one page on this topic. I need more!

    I think Kaplan would be so great to use for prepping for the USMLE, but if I had to do the MCAT all over again, it looks like that Blueprint course would have been really fun and kept me engaged.

  • @hannahrey5846
    @hannahrey5846 3 роки тому

    I will be going with the blueprint course! Not only due to the video quality as stated in this video, but also because they give a free trial that I have been able to interact with and use for a true look into the course. This video really helped me reaffirm my decision and I hope to be starting this August in my test prep! Thank you for helping me in making the best decisions toward accomplishing my dream!!!

    I'm planning on using a blueprint! I will take the MCAT in the summer, but I will still be studying for it on top of my courseload. I find that I learn best through videos because I can watch and rewatch them and pause them however I like where you can't do that with a live lecture.

  • @sergiodelatorre7356

    I would choose the Princeton review because this course has specialized instructors as well as 123 live instruction hours which would work well with my personality as well as hold me accountable and keep me motivated in a timely routine for MCAT prep. Thank you so much for your review, it was very insightful and I learned a lot about the distinguishing features of each course!

    I would have to go with Blueprint. I have Kaplan and it seems to be a bit watered down IMO. I was actually looking for better material when I came across this video. From the description, Blueprint’s videos/ total package sound exactly perfect for me.

  • @astrihtramos3588

    @mariahdominique1721 2 роки тому +2

    I Am really thinking Blue Print Is going to be the prep for me. My trouble is finding the right prep strategy as a non traditional ( Active Duty Soldier, Full time student, and mother) it’s hard! although I try to maximize my time to study, I’m in constant fear I’m not teaching myself the correct information in the time I have. I’ve pushed my exam back twice and if I decide to really take the blueprint course I will use all of fall semester along with my regular classes to get ready for the mcat in January. I Will Not give Up!

    I am considering signing up to BluePrint. During my undergrad, I would draw everything out as precisely I could. My favorite class was anatomy as I had the bones and organs to draw.

    To be honest I was thinking of Kaplan and Blueprint, but after your video. I am swayed towards Blueprint more because I heard a lot of great things about it. As well as I am more of a visual learner that is why Blueprint works for me.

  • @lorenagarnica9732
    @lorenagarnica9732 2 роки тому

    Out of the three options discussed here, I am not leaning towards blueprint. Personally, I feel like I would really benefit from the course layout and how the live instructions help tie the concepts back together to depict that bigger picture. I like how it can tie in the minute details to deliver the high yeild concepts and I can see that bettering my understanding and prep for the MCAT.

    I feel like I would benefit from Princeton's specialization in live lessons/tutoring in real time as I tend to lose focus with videos or get tempted to pause or do something else. However, blueprint's videos might be engaging enough to combat this, so you never know.
