Princeton or Kaplan?

[premedgirl]

Can anyone give me some feedbacks, opinions, disappointments, etc... about the Kaplan and Princeton review courses? Which one is worth my money? Which one is better? Are the teachers well-qualified enough? Did it really help you achieve a good grade? I am planning to take the MCAT next april (05). I just one to make the best investment possible because these classes are extremely expensive.


Thank you so much for your help!

Is this necessary? I scored 28+ studying on my own.

Like ISMILE said, some folks don't need a review course. I took Kaplan and was pleased with what I got. The people I knew who took Princeton Review seemed pretty pleased as well.

Let me suggest you call the nearest centers for both Kaplan and PR and tell them you are considering both. I'm sure they will invite you in for some freebies and a lot of information about their course. Both offer a free Diagnostic exam and they might even let you sit in on a class if they think they can lure you away from their competitor.

It IS a lot of money, so I would suggest you research it first-hand and go with the one you like best.

Best of Luck!
