MCAT or GRE Mock Exams
The mock exam is a great opportunity for someone who is not sure how much work they should do to get ready for the real exam. The mock exam allows the student to see what the test is like without getting a score that goes on their record. Students do NOT need to study before taking the mock exam; indeed, one purpose of the exam is to help you identify which areas you should study most.

MCAT: mock exam or strategy seminar Princeton Review 713 688-5500 or Kaplan
