Study Tip

The tips begin at a different place in each module. The advice moves along with the stages of the course.

Yerkes and Dodson observed that performance deteriorates as levels of arousal approach extremes, either at the very low or very high ends of the spectrum. The optimal level of arousal is somewhere in the middle. For an easy, repetitive task, it turns out that moderate-high arousal is optimal. For a difficult, complex task such as the MCAT, on the contrary, the best performance occurs if you are in a moderate-low arousal state. This is where you find flow in the exam. Cultivate a mindset that is calm and engaged for the test and teach yourself how to preserve this mindset through controlled breathing and mindfulness even when the exam is at its most challenging.

Comprehensive Review

Focused topical review is complete. Now your job is to cycle the knowledge base in comprehensive review. Reinforce the structure of the knowledge base. Remediate any remaining challenges. Bring agency and efficacy towards this process. You are responsible for the fitness of your knowledge base. Here are some suggestions for comprehensive study cycles. Some of these might take just a few hours, and some might extend over several modules. This is a major focus from here-on-out.

Skim your book-set. Read the bold headings. Look at the figures. Your book-set contains a basic comprehensive, structured representation of the core knowledge.
Perform the even numbered and straggler practice items. Finish your book-set!
Skim Lippincott Cell and Molecular Biology and the relevant parts of Biochemistry
Rewatch the course videos at high speed. Follow along with the session PDFs.
Tour the site Topic Pages from start to finish. Review the organization of each topic, and visit external resources, as necessary, for reinforcement and remediation.
Revisit your completed practice items, Question Pack, and Section Bank. Make sure you would get everything correct now.
There are some good 3rd party resources for comprehensive review out there (topic review at Jack Westin, shared ANKI decks, UWorld, etc.).
Play Catch Blue.
Create your own comprehensive cycles!
