Futur3 Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 I'm writing on July 12 (for my first time), but I have a very strong science background, and would have just completed my second year, and have just finished Physiology, and both Orgos, so that should be of some help. At the moment, I have taken advice from some people about books (thank you to those reading this that have helped me). This is a rough idea of what I may buy: - Bio: EK - Chem: Berkely - Physics: Berkely - VR: EK (and maybe TPR HL) - Orgo: EK or Berkely - AAMC practice exams - TPR science workbook (the one with a lot of problems in it) - CBTs: not sure yet I will not be taking a prep course. Does anybody have any suggestions for that list? Also, is the practice listed above enough? Should I buy CBTs? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!

Did you plan on buying the AAMC practice exams as CBTs? Definitely good to have experience writing the test on a computer before doing the real thing. I thought all of the AAMC FLs were enough practice and didn't bother with additional CBTs. Also, I used TBR for Orgo and liked it. No point of comparison between EK and TBR, though.
