Barron's New MCAT, 2007 (Barron's How to Prepare for the New Medical College Admission Test Mcat)

Beginning in January'07, students applying for admission to medical schools must take the computer-based MCAT. The pencil-and-paper version of the Medical College Admission Test will no longer be given. Barron's new eleventh edition of the MCAT manual prepares applicants with four full-length practice tests modeled after the brand-new computer-based tests. Each practice MCAT consists of 144 questions--the same number to be found on the new MCAT--with all questions answered and explained. Every test question in the manual closely reflects those on the computer-based test in length and degree of difficulty. Also presented are subject reviews that cover all test topics. They include:

A detailed MCAT science review in biology, chemistry, and physics

A math review

Verbal reasoning test-taking strategies

Advice on answering the MCAT writing sample

Test takers will also value this book's handy reference tables, which include logarithms and exponents, a table of common logarithms, the periodic table of the elements, a list of the elements with their symbols, and a chemistry reference table.
