    THIS IS PROBABLY UP TO ME, BUT CAN I GET MORE OUT OF THE PRINCETON REVIEW OR KAPLAN?
    THE ONLY PRINCETON REVIEW TEXT I CAN FIND IS ONE THAT WAS PUBLISHED IN 1997, BUT KAP’S IS LATER.
    PLEEASE ALL YOU SAGES OUT THERE, ADVICE.

    Neither one will be comprehensive of all MCAT material (especially when you get a physical sciences section that is intensive on the properties of elements and metal alloys :-P) and buying both is a lot of expense. I just chose one (happened to be Kaplan), used that intensively, and then went to the local bookstore and the library to glance through Princeton Review and see if I had missed anything. That dinky local library has more than you might realize and can be very useful when you don’t want to buy a book. At the very least, I’d say study from one and then take some different free practice tests from other sources and see if there are topics you need to look up.
