How better prep builds better scores.
Menu
Tackle every MCAT topic and passage with confidence using our proven strategies and techniques.
Master the knowledge, skills, and strategies to maximize your scores.
Prep101 takes a more comprehensive approach. We teach you all the science on the MCAT. We also help you master the MCAT’s challenging passage-based format. And we hone your critical thinking and reasoning skills. When you nail these three areas - science knowledge, reasoning skills and strategies - you’ll get that higher score.
138 hours over 10 weeks to give you ample time to digest everything.
One thing that really sets us apart from other prep companies is our 138 hours of live instruction – more than any other company.
That includes 68 hours covering the basic science. Plus we offer 70 hours of guided practice with our expert prep instructors to hone the reasoning skills and strategies you’ll need for the MCAT’s passage-based questions.
Expert instructors walk you through 6-8 passages in every class.
Our 32 in-class exams cover only the topics you learned in the preceding lesson. Using what you've learned directly after you've learned it is the best way to ensure that your newfound knowledge really sticks. Our passage-based in-class exams are an excellent way to apply that knowledge, and we're the only company that provides them. After completing each one, the instructor walks you through it and shows you how to map and analyze the passages, dissect the question stems, and attack the answer choices.
20 full-length exams with cutting-edge Analytics.
There’s no better way to improve at something than by doing it over and over again. That’s why we provide more full-length exams than any other MCAT prep course. By practicing with these exact simulations, Prep101 students become thoroughly accustomed to every facet of the MCAT. Our robust Analytics track your performance by section, content category, question type, reasoning skill, topic, and subtopic so you get data-based feedback on your strengths and weaknesses. Results are displayed statistically and graphically so you can easily visualize trends and progress.
Our prep course also includes 23 After-Class Practice Sets with 5-10 passages. And then there's the six AAMC Question Packs and customizable Section Bank. Produced by the AAMC, these 155 passages and 1,020 questions are the gold standards of MCAT prep resources. Everything is online, with the exact same interface as the MCAT.
We understand that the decision to attend medical school is a big one. So each year we host free events where you can learn much more about the MCAT and the medical school admissions process. Check out the schedule, and register, below.
The online seminar will feature two current medical students who will provide a comprehensive but concise overview of the preclinical years and clinical years and share LOTS of helpful tips to succeed in medical school.
Schedule
Wednesday, March 24 (7:00pm - 8:30pm EDT)
Friday, March 26 (9:00pm - 10:30pm EDT)
