great book
This is the best book by far in prep for the physics part of the physical sciences. By preparing with this book I got an 11 on the PS section. Its either this book or your huge physics textbook..you choose. It has 16 chapters and at the end of each there is set of 30 or 40 questions. Although I do wish there was more passage based questions here..it is still awesome prep especially if you are terrible at physics..like me! The concepts are explained simply and it makes you wish your physics teacher had explained stuff to you in this way..
looking for a copy!!!
I've been trying to find a copy of this book online, but haven't had much luck. apparently it won't come until august if i get it from amazon, which isn't much help since i need it to study for the august mcat. if anyone has a copy i can buy off of them, please let me know. thanks!!! my email addy is asneha@hotmail.com
Who is afraid of the big bad MCAT?
Absolute best in MCAT physics prep. It really put the Kaplan book to shame. ~50+ questions / chapter, half of which are near MCAT in style and difficulty. I trully believe that every last conceptual MCAT question is covered in this book. 10-15 page descriptions of each subject followed by several pages means you get it right even if physics is not your expertise. My experience in physics is only based on an accelerated summer course... so I definitely needed the help. The author is very clear and breaks down each subject into obvious/common sense approaches. The writing is very basic and easy to follow, but I definitely took guilty pleasure in the joke passages that were in every chapter. I guess Biehle has to have a sense of humor considering he got a doctorate in physics (the laughter hides the crying, I understand Biehle).

If you read this book from cover to cover and do all the questions, there is no way you can get less than a 85% of the physics questions on your physical sciences.

MCAT Physics Book
The MCAT Physics Book is a wonderful tool in helping prospective medical students acheive high scores on the Physical Sciences section of the MCAT. This book provides the most comprehensive review of physics avalible in prep books, and it provides numerous examples and MCAT style physics questions with thorough explanations. Even though its MCAT style questions are more difficult than the actual exam, it greatly prepares testakers for the challenges they face on the real exam. In my physics classes, I did not do particularly well in them, and this is the reason why I purchased the MCAT Physics Book. Before I used this book to study for the MCAT, my physical sciences section was a 9; but after preparing myself with this book, my score jumped to a 12 on the MCAT. I highly recomend this book for everyone, especially students that had little physics or did not do well in their physics classes.
Excellent Physics Preparation
This is a truely impressive review book - much, much better than the very boring Kaplan materials. I'm amazed that the author put so much effort into creating such an intuitive guide for us pre-meds. I highly recommend this book for anyone needing a review of physics for the MCAT and any undergraduates or high school students taking physics. It really goes beyond expectations for test prep!!!!
