Getting MCAT timing right is critical to achieving your best score on the exam.

In this video, 528 scorer Vikram Shaw discusses strategies that you can use to maximize your MCAT accuracy.

Thank you for providing fantastic free resources that students of all backgrounds are able to access and understand. Thanks to your supplement, I was able to achieve a 520 on my first go, and I could've never done it without the test taking strategies that Mr. Vikram Shaw provides. I --- and countless others --- will not forget your help.

Great video!! Also hate to be that guy but honestly just want to give constructive feedback bc shemmassian has helped me a lot, recording the audio on an iphone/smartphone while you film the video and then overlaying the audio file in vid. editing software will lead to much better sound quality without having to buy expensive mic/sound equipment

[@Shemmassian]

Thanks for the feedback, Ben! We'll keep this in mind for our next video :)
