5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent books and customer service!

In my opinion, doing well on the MCAT requires practice, practice, practice. After using other books to re-learn all of the topics, I spent the last few weeks of my study time doing test after test. This Sterling test prep book was excellent. Each section is set up like the MCAT - passage based questions with a few freestanding questions sprinkled in. The answer explanations at the back of the book are also excellent. The most frustrating thing to experience is when you get a question wrong, but you don't understand WHY you got the question wrong - Sterling test prep materials ensure that never happens again. Their customer service department is also excellent. I emailed them in a panic because I really didn't understand the logic behind one of their answers (Page 252. Question 40). They emailed me back the next day with a very detailed description, acknowledged the answer was incorrect, and even paid me a "reward" for finding this error. My only wish is that they had a psychology/sociology test prep book available at the time I was studying - hopefully something to come in the future.

Took the April 17, 2015 exam and very pleased with my results. I study hard and used this book to ensure that I was ready for test day. I used their online platform to time my responses and to sort questions by topics and difficulty. I had used the discrete questions books that I borrowed from a friend and knew this was the product for me because it had passages to practice and a variety of test topics are integrated into the material. I like the layout of the book, the specificity of detail from the actual questions and the clear and complete explanations. Explanations really focused me on what I needed to spend more time reviewing. I was well-practiced, prepared and confident on test-day because I spent the time to do the drills to simulate the actual exam. I really feel that I had an edge over people that did not use solid practice materials for the new MCAT.

I am a physician from Europe, I passed all the USMLE exams but did not match. My alternative move was to get in med school and I bought all the MCAT books. As we all know questions along with the theory is priceless. So I bought Sterling practice test 2015. I only have wonderful thing to say, I mean WOW. Explanations in detail. Planning to buy the entire series of Sterling, and as they explain every case it will be used as a review book as well. Just to let everyone knows, doing 40 questions out of 59, is about the 50th percentile-this is a official respond to my email from Sterling as I asked them to enlighten me how much is 50th percentile.tile. Bottom line- bug it study it over and over and you will do have kowledge. Good Luck :)

5.0 out of 5 stars The practice paid off
Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2015

I used the book and the online resources to take the practice tests. I liked that the online component allowed me to get a scaled score, view a diagnostic report and sort the questions by topic and difficulty level. Passages were challenging and similar for data analysis to what I saw on the recent MCAT. My scores were good and I know all the hours I spent learning the concepts and practicing under timed conditions really paid off for me. I like working with this book to be ready for testday. I never expected the exact passages from this book would be on the MCAT (some people are looking for this which is unrealistic). Systematic practice with good materials like this book will give your the greatest advantage for the exam.

5.0 out of 5 stars Practiced skills needed for MCAT 2015
Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2015

Great practice for MCAT 2015. The passages are varied with different subjects from the new mcat and a good variety of topics tested from the associated questions. What I liked about the passages is that they required me to apply skills such as data interpretation and laboratory techniques to solve the problems. This is what the new MCAT emphases. Very satisfied with the practice I received from using this book. I found the microbiology and immunology passages a great representation of data analysis needed for the 2015 version. You cannot do too many practice questions and/or passages and this book will give you practice with passages (and some discrete questions) within the 8 full length science sample tests. I already recommended the book to a few friends.

I am a post-bac at the Harvard Extension School. I graduated a few years ago as a biochemistry major and have been working in research for 2 years. I consider myself a strong student with a great foundation in the sciences needed for the MCAT. A few classmates of mine took the MCAT last year and recommended the Sterling Prep books. I used several of their products (along with some donated book from other publishers). The Sterling products are very comprehensive and pose challenging questions with excellent explanations. I just got my scores and I am very pleased with my preparation and the results that I was able to achieve. I recommend the books for proper preparation for this important exam.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this

This is NOT representative of the current 2015 MCAT. Current MCAT passages are scientific, data-based papers whereas this book has much less dense and easier to read passages with no data. Not helpful if you want to study for the real deal! Also I wouldn't recommend using paper-based resources when studying anyways as the exam is online and it's very helpful to get familiar with the true format. Most of the major test prep companies have practice passages/exams online so save your money for those instead!!

3.0 out of 5 stars The practices tests in this book is a good practice for knowledge understanding
Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2015

As someone who has already taken the 2015 mcat in June, I feel these practice tests do not represent the actual mcat exams. The questions on the real exam require more "thinking" as most passages are heavily focused on understanding concepts and "complex" research data. The practices tests in this book is a good practice for knowledge understanding, but not great for the actual exam.
Btw, I was disappointed with pretty much all the companies as the real mcat is more difficult than any practice i have taken, and especially the psych/soc section.
I recommend strongly buying the actual practice aamc exam and take it and get a good feel, even though it is still easier than the actual exam.
Best of luck
