I am posting for my very busy husband! Can you guys tell me your experience with the 7 week Kaplan course? Do you think taking that is a necessity or if you have all the material from Kaplan and study on your own that is just as good? This is not a monetary question. Just trying to find out the best way to utilize his time.

Thanks in advance for all your advice!!

Have you heard of exam krackers? They have a very good study guide for the MCAT. If I was your husband I would take a look at it. go to www.examkrckers.com
And they are very reasonable in price.

kaplan was good.....some parts were worthless but overall i'd say the kaplan books are relatively high yield

Depends on how your husband studies...some people really benefit from watching the videos...others don't.

I would recommend your husband take advantage of Kaplan's free one day pass and go in and either watch a video or sit in a class (whichever method of prep he is considering). That will give him a better idea of whether it will be beneficial.
