ExamKrackers is not a books company any more
ExamKrackers spent two decades as a publisher, and most reviews still describe it that way. The site now leads with Krack University, a subscription platform at $695 for 90 days of all-inclusive access, with live tutoring available six days a week included in that price. There is a seven-day free trial.
The company positions itself openly against four-figure competitors, naming the "$1,000, $2,000, or even $3,000" alternatives in its own marketing. On price per hour of available human help, that claim survives scrutiny better than most competitive claims in this market.
What $695 covers, and what it does not
Ninety days of platform access, the full ExamKrackers curriculum, and live office hours six days a week where you can bring questions to an actual instructor. The teaching voice is the one that made the books popular: direct, a little irreverent, and willing to tell you what not to bother learning.
The important distinction is that office hours are shared, not dedicated. You can ask questions and get real answers, and nobody is booked to sit with you and watch how you work a passage from start to finish. That is a different product, and it is the one that tends to move a stalled score.
The 90-day clock starts when you buy. MCAT test dates slip constantly, and if yours does, you are buying again. Products with six or twelve month windows absorb that better.
What students tell us about ExamKrackers
ExamKrackers comes up in dozens of conversations students have started with us, and almost always in connection with the books rather than the platform. The pivot to Krack University is recent enough that our archive has not caught up with it, and we would rather say that than imply we have data we do not.
What students did say consistently about the books is that the explanations landed the first time, and that the reasoning style suited them better than the encyclopedic approach of the larger publishers. That is a real signal about how this company teaches, even though it predates the current product.

The Unbiased MCAT Prep Course Decision Quiz
Three different problems stall an MCAT score, and buying the wrong fix costs months. Six questions sort out which one is yours and what to spend on it. We name competitors and free resources when they beat us, and say so when the answer is spend nothing.
No email required. Your plan appears on screen.
Transparency, before you start. We sell MCAT tutoring and courses, so here are the rules this quiz follows.
- Zero budget, nothing paid. Free resources only, and we say so.
- Content gap, buy content first. From whoever does it best, which is usually not us. Our tutoring comes up only as an optional add-on for a big gap.
- Competitors named and linked when they beat us: UWorld, Kaplan, Blueprint, ExamKrackers, Khan Academy.
- We appear only where we fit, with the budget to match, and always beside a cheaper option.
- Our free MCAT resources show up wherever they fit, and they ask for nothing.
Where it makes sense, and where it does not
It is the best value in live human help on this page. Six days a week of instructor access for $695 is not matched by anything else here, and the nearest comparable offerings run three to five times the price.
Do not mistake office hours for tutoring. If your problem is that nobody has ever watched you work a full passage under time, shared office hours will not fix it. Budget for dedicated hours somewhere.
Buy it when your date is fixed. The 90-day window is the catch, and it is a real one. Start the clock when you are already inside a dedicated study block.
