Product Description The passages in this book have been designed to closely resemble official MCAT Verbal passages. From the type font to the subject matter to the number of words in each passage, question, and answer choice, these exas have the real MCAT feel. The questions in this book accurately duplicate the intended ambiguity that is the challenge of the actual MCAT. As is true of the official MCAT, you won't find the answers to these questions by hunting through the passages to find specific details. Instead, you'll need to understand the passeges in their entirety, just as you will on official MCAT day. The explanations in this book provide a comprehensive breakdown of correct, and incorrect answer choices. If you want lots of practice with tough, accurate MCAT exams to boost your Verbal Reasoning score on MCAT day, this book is for you.

The best book for VR preparation March 1, 2004 Ulysses 46 out of 48 found this review helpful
I run private tutoring courses for the MCAT, and I would say that this book is arguably the best source for MCAT Verbal Reasoning questions, aside from the real exams from AAMC. (Needless to say, I use this book in my course.) The writer accurately captures most aspects of the real exam, including passage length, question wording, distribution of question types, and ambiguity of the correct answers. The only major flaw that I find with this book is that some answer choices are not well supported (even taking into account the fact that the correct answers on the MCAT are supposed to be somewhat ambiguous). In some cases, there are blatant errors in the question stem or stated correct answers, or, more rarely, two equally correct answer choices. For this reason, I would rate this book 4.5 stars, but since Amazon doesn't let me do that, I will give it 5 stars. :) On the actual MCAT, the incorrect answer choices are usually a little more differentiated from the correct answer. These mistakes and imperfections are frequent enough to be a little annoying, but not abundant or major enough to topple this book off the pedestal of being the best VR preparation book out there. Kaplan's and Princeton Review's materials do not quite compare (especially Kaplan's, which contain too many explicit detail questions). Keep in mind that the questions in this book are probably going to be slightly more difficult than the real MCAT questions, which are not quite as tricky. Have fun and good luck.
An Excellent Guide for Verbal February 16, 2004 Jake (Houston, TX) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
The verbal is by far one of the most difficult passages around for MCAT test takers, and I certainly fall into this category. If you want to do well on it, you must PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE! The examkrackers verbal is an excellent tool that will give you the necesary practice. Try to get your hands on a lot of verbal passages (be careful, don't buy any of the teaching solutions MCAT products, this is one of those garbage prep materials the EK author was talking about) and work through the problems. Familiarize yourself with the common questions that frequently pop up on these verbal passages, and don't fill in the obvious answers. Practice and prepare, and you will do fine.
Unreal!!!! December 17, 2002 T-Mak (Chicago, IL) 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
This book is amazing. Not only does it have warm up passages, but it has 7 real practice verbal exams......It is a must for anyone who believes that "practice makes perfect!!!" After this book, you will be so sick of practice exams, and ready to go for the real deal!!!
Excellent July 23, 2003 TREVOR A STEVE (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Canada) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Practice will increase your score in the verbal section of the MCAT. This book is very good for practice. Use the ek strategies and this book and you will consistently score 10s
Best Verbal Material on the Market!! November 24, 2002 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
This source of verbal practice for the MCAT is great. It is a must for anyone taking the MCAT and attempting to do well on the verbal resoning section. The author has done a great job of capturing the "MCAT voice" by giving the reader challenging passages and questions that are like those on the MCAT. Hands down, this is some of the best stuff on the market! Other pre-meds would agree if they took a look at this book. Check this book as a must have, not only a "good" source.
