great book

This is the best book by far in prep for the physics part of the physical sciences. By preparing with this book I got an 11 on the PS section. Its either this book or your huge physics textbook..you choose. It has 16 chapters and at the end of each there is set of 30 or 40 questions. Although I do wish there was more passage based questions here..it is still awesome prep especially if you are terrible at physics..like me! The concepts are explained simply and it makes you wish your physics teacher had explained stuff to you in this way..

Who is afraid of the big bad MCAT?

Absolute best in MCAT physics prep. It really put the Kaplan book to shame. ~50+ questions / chapter, half of which are near MCAT in style and difficulty. I trully believe that every last conceptual MCAT question is covered in this book. 10-15 page descriptions of each subject followed by several pages means you get it right even if physics is not your expertise. My experience in physics is only based on an accelerated summer course... so I definitely needed the help. The author is very clear and breaks down each subject into obvious/common sense approaches. The writing is very basic and easy to follow, but I definitely took guilty pleasure in the joke passages that were in every chapter. I guess Biehle has to have a sense of humor considering he got a doctorate in physics (the laughter hides the crying, I understand Biehle).If you read this book from cover to cover and do all the questions, there is no way you can get less than a 85% of the physics questions on your physical sciences.

MCAT Physics Book

The MCAT Physics Book is a wonderful tool in helping prospective medical students acheive high scores on the Physical Sciences section of the MCAT. This book provides the most comprehensive review of physics avalible in prep books, and it provides numerous examples and MCAT style physics questions with thorough explanations. Even though its MCAT style questions are more difficult than the actual exam, it greatly prepares testakers for the challenges they face on the real exam. In my physics classes, I did not do particularly well in them, and this is the reason why I purchased the MCAT Physics Book. Before I used this book to study for the MCAT, my physical sciences section was a 9; but after preparing myself with this book, my score jumped to a 12 on the MCAT. I highly recomend this book for everyone, especially students that had little physics or did not do well in their physics classes.

Great learning tool

I've never taken a physics class in my life, and I smoked the physical sciences section. Everything (physics-related) on the test, except for two of the seventy-seven questions, was covered in this book. If you take the time to read a chapter a week and do the practice problems starting in January, you'll be set for the MCAT in April. Best of luck!

This book helped me double my MCAT score!

By using this book, I doubled my MCAT physcial sciences score from 5 to 10, with a 34S overall. This book is very thorough, but not boring. It is very helpful, even if physics terrfies you. The comfortable writing style helps you get over your fears and allows you to learn a lot. I can't recomend this book highly enough. The text is easy to read and understand, and the questions are the best out there for MCAT physics review. Buy this book early and give yourself time to work through it -- you will end up feeling very comfortable in the physical sciences test. I wish the author would write a similar book for every other MCAT subject, but I guess we can't get everything that we want!
