Editorial Review:
The MCAT Biology Book provides a comprehensive overview of MCAT biology appropriate for all pre-med students preparing for the MCAT exam. With this and its two companion volumes, The MCAT Physics Book and The MCAT Chemistry Book, Nova Press provides the most comprehensive series of test-prep books for the MCAT. In twenty-one chapters, the basics of biology are described in easy-to-understand text. Illustrations help emphasize relevant topics and clarify difficult concepts. Each chapter concludes with a set of problems modeled after the MCAT exam, with complete explanation of the answers. Also, includes a thorough analysis of the MCAT verbal section. Authors Nancy Morvillo and Matthew Schmidt both obtained their Ph.D. in genetics from the State University of New York at Stony Brook.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - The MCAT Biology Book
This is an awful book for MCAT preparations, especially if you've taken a decent Biology course in college. There are by no means enough practice problems, maximum 10-11 questions at the end of each chapter, the material is far too simply described, and sparse. Reading a textbook is far more useful.
Rating: - Lacking....
This MCAT review text is deeply lacking compared to other preparation texts on the market. The presentation of the material is very rough and difficult to follow. For those who enjoy studying colorful text with diagrams, figures, bold keywords etc.. look elsewhere, this is not your book. (Might I suggest Examkrackers MCAT Biology (Examkrackers) Aside from the presentation, the quality and depth of the material is insufficient to be used as your sole guide in preparing for MCAT Biology. I daresay ... Read More
Rating:  - just enough
I can't even tell you how many books I have purchased that claim they offer only info. relavant to the MCAT and nothing more...in which they wind up giving you all the superfluous stuff that *may* be on the MCAT.
Well, this book is different. It cuts out all the extra mumbo jumbo and tells you like it is. Want to know about Glycolysis, fermentation, Kreb's cycle and the ETC all in 2 hours memorized? Buy this book...it has a unique way of explaining things that other books, and professors, didn't ... Read More
Rating: - Hello!
Thank you for all your hard work! This book was great!
Rating:  - Concise review of Biology and Verbal portions of the MCAT
This book covers all the basics of biology. For someone like me, who had a lacking undergrad bio course, this book helps. The diagrams throughout the book are very helpful because they give you another way of remembering the concepts. This book is limited with testing questions, and is better used as a study aid. All in all, this is great for reviewing bio, but it should not be your only source of studying for the MCAT bio section. I have not yet looked at the verbal section, but it looks promising.
