Course FAQs
Great question! No, you don't have to go through every lesson in this course. There are a lot of strategy lessons here for you so we'd definitely recommend being a little proactive in how you choose which ones to go through.
Depending on your specific situation, all of the lessons may not apply to you. So we don't want you to spend your time going through anything that isn't going to lead to your score goal in the fastest amount of time.
If you'd like, you can skip around and go through the strategy lessons you feel like would give you the greatest boost in your score. That's completely fine.
We hope that helps!

"MCAT strategy" gets tossed around so much that it's become another buzz word that's used irresponsibly. Let's clarify what it really means in the context of the MCAT. As you know by now, you need to learn new ways to study for this exam...
→ You need to absorb and memorize such a large amount of content with endless detail and store it in memory for an exam that's 2-6 months in the future.
→ You need to apply memorized content to tricky questions based on confusing passages with wordy paragraphs, unfamiliar concepts, and 2-4 figures per passage
→You need to learn how to think critically through passages, graphs/figures, question stems, and answer choices.
→ You need to maintain stamina + focus for 7.5 hours, comprehending everything and reading quickly, while not running out of time.
→ You need to learn how to practice/review strategically with the limited AAMC material.
→ For CARS especially, you need to learn how to identify the main idea, understand the author, see through trick answer choices.
→ You need to learn to plan, schedule, and optimize your prep as your score progresses.
→ You need to take care of other important areas of life (job, school, relationships), but especially your mindset so you can stay confident, motivated, and determined as you write the hardest exam of your life.
... And there's so much more.
Clearly all of this is NOT easy.
To make it easier to learn all of these skills FAST, you need MCAT strategy.
