 - Excellent Study Review!I just took the PCAT and this was perfect refresher to flip through questions and then check detailed answers. Covers all topics and price is right too! Rating:  - Not useful to actually learn anythingI bought thsi book thinking it would have been a great purchase to just carry around (i.e. to work) so I can do practice questions when I had time. Well as I started in the biology section I found it very odd that a couple of the questions were repeated a couple of times. I don't see the point in trying to stretch out the number of questions in the book by repeating them. Another major problem I had which ultimately made me return the book was there were multiple questions with the wrong answer. I went into the store and showed them an example. The question asked which of the following molecules has the lowest molecular weight. First they gave the wrong answer as the correct choice, but the explination didn't even match up to the choice that was supposedly correct. I found multiple questions with incorrect answers and/or explinations thus brought the book back. If you don't know the answer to a question and are using the answer key to help you learn, this book sucks. I could not be confident in any of the answers to questions I didn't know based on knowing other answers were wrong. Rating: - Great purchase!Having already taken the PCAT, this book is a great way to study without feeling overloaded. The questions aren't confusing and offer nicely detailed explanations. There are also plenty of review questions for each section. Rating: - Good for practiceAbout 100 questions for each section (only verbal, biology,chemistry, and math). Good and clear explanations. Easy to study. Portable size. Good for someone who needs general idea about the test! page 2 of 2
