Hi! Thanks for a great interview. I’m compiling a list of resources covering content review and practice questions for self-study. AAMC, Uworld, and Kaplan books are on the list, what other materials do folks recommend to create a comprehensive list? Thanks!
I am doing the same! I hear there is a reddit for the psych part it is like 300 pages long, and there is an 89 page one also, but apparently it has everything needed for the psych section! I have deff heard AAMC practice tests are the way to go, as well as Uworld, also heard a lot about Khan academy
Would you recommend buying the AAMC MCAT Official Prep Complete Bundle? It is $294 right now on AAMC website, I feel like this would be useful since it has everything all in one, practice exams, question packs, etc.

MCAT seems extremely difficult, I guess it has to be like that.
This is very insightful.. 👍 👍 👍

Yeah it is challenging. Y’all don’t have it do you? I believe he is Afghan
@@DrAdnan yes we definitely have something similar 😊😊 if you aren't posting anything till the new year, then I wish you a happy holiday 🎉😁
@@cleopetra87 I’m sure that must be difficult too. I’ll try to get something out, but happy holidays! Always nice to see you in the comments 😊
This was extremely helpful, great insiders, thank you to both!
Thank you- I’m glad it was helpful!!

That’s probably a good idea- the AAMC materials are generally gold
@@DrAdnan yea I decided I'm going to get the bundle, I have heard from everyone to get AAMC practice tests so it's worth it the price
That’s a good plan- good luck!
