- Hey everyone! I am a second-year medical student at THE Ohio State University College of Medicine. We are currently on summer break for the next three months! Today in this video, I share my experiences when studying for the MCAT. I share the resources that I used when improving my MCAT score by over 20 points. I discuss the bad resources that resulted in little to no improvement. Good resources helped drastically increase my score and gold-tier resources helped me improve my MCAT score.

You have no idea how much I needed to see this video today. Thank you Tyler!
No worries- keep me posted on your journey! Good luck :D
You mentioned the 3 resources that helped me to do well haha. It’s a very individual exam so finding what works for you is one of the hardest part for sure
ahhhh glad that they helped you too!
I feel this pump, i also took 3 gaps years to work in a chem lab and was going to take the mcat last year but my dad died a month before so i took anoyher year off to cope. I am finally hitting the 515 area on the past three practice fls. Feels amazing. I also ditched the books and just did youtube and practice questions. This exam is definetky more of being able to analyze passages then just pure content
So sorry for your loss. Keep up the hard work it will pay off. You should be so proud of yourself!
Great video!
Thank you so much Tyler.
Very motivating video, great job!
thank you boy
You are so motivational I appreciate your videos so much!
Thank you so much Victoria!
You showed up on my feed today. Literally switching my whole mcat study plan as I started a week ago but transitioning to your methods because everything you’ve been saying about the bad resources I’ve been using is how I feel. You’re approaching things the same way I am so gonna trust you will be back in a couple months. Exam August 23. Cheers
You got this! Keep me posted on your journey!
Thanks for helpful video. From Vietnam with love 😁
Thank you for the international support!
In the first 3 minutes you literally said the 3 resources I was planning on using were trash!!! 😭I am going to check out the resources you mentioned though. Thanks!
I'm glad you saw this video keep me posted on your journey!
I love your energy bro
thank you man!
Great vid! What did you score on the MCAT and what was your mark breakdown?
thank you so much ive been struggling so much with retention because id read the kaplan chapters and then do the anki for the chapters and it was just too much information. so you recommend doing your bouras anki deck and watching the simplifiedscience videos, then moving onto FLs and practice questions on AAMC? I am 80 days from my MCAT test rn
Thanks for such an encouraging and helpful video!
Do you mind sharing how many months you studied for the MCAT while working full-time?
Thanks for the support! I worked as an EMT in an emergency department. We would have 12 hour shifts 3 times a week. I would try to have my shifts scheduled 3 back to back and then 4 days off. During the days I would work, I would just do anki before work or during breaks/downtime at work. I would say this was roughly 4-5 months of studying while preparing for the MCAT. I did have an OK baseline from my previous two attempts regarding MCAT content. I was also able to get some time off before my exam to solely focus on that. Hope this helps :D
Just curious, what is your outlook before and during med school? Was there something you wished you studied or brushed up on before entering? I guess another topic is covering the myths of med school and the truths of med school
I been thinking of attending med school at tOSU but unsure
When working on the Princeton Review science workbook, did you jump around between passages or take them in the order they were given?
Even though the Princeton Workbook was published in 2016, Is it still relevant in 2024?
Would you be willing to share your MCAT scores? Thanks!
hey great question! I will probaly talk about it in an upcoming video. nobody ever talks about the MCAT once you're in med school :D
Do you have the updated link to the Bouras deck? Drive link isnt working
link has been updated in the bio. let me know if that works!
It works thanks!
Went to the reddit link and the bouras deck is gone :(. Do you have another link for it?
I just updated the link let me know if it works!

How many questions did you do a day from the science workbook?
I would start out with one passage a day untimed, and then review it right after updating my Google Sheets document while reviewing it. I would add more passages once my scores go up and then focus on timing once scores were good.
@@TYLERLUNG okay thanks! I have this book but it’s so thick I honestly didn’t know how to best approach studying with it. Appreciate it!
