528 Scorer Leads MCAT CARS Passage Walkthrough | High-Yield Strategies

[@davidrubin2612]

good video but Id like to see this type of analysis on a much more difficult passage about a more obscure topic like art or philosophy that most people arent familiar with.

[@davidburns82]

yea this was a very ez passage i got all the questions right without his help. if only the real mcat was this ez

[@khanruhafzah]

this!!!

[@smooovtay]

Thank you for this, but this passage and these questions are soooo much easier than the actual AAMC CARS section

[@alexmartinez3683]

I tried using the super fast outline method but then I learned you will be able to highlight in the MCAT. I think it is better to highlight what sentence you feel best describes the paragraph. And if you need to look back you will be reminded of your reasoning when you see the sentence, This saved me about 1 minute each passage.

[@aeronomen]

This actually seems like a really good idea, only highlight main idea

[@THEFASHIONUNIVERSE]

Thank you this was helpful. I learned that I have to stop reading an answer choice quickly and assuming what it means off the top of my head. I really have to take everything I am reading at face-value and specifically focus on what the answer choices/passage is EXACTLY saying. It is so hard to analyze without personal bias but it is critical in order to do well on the CARS section

[@Shemmassian]

Reading everything at face-value is very important! We're happy to hear you've picked up on that tip. Best of luck. :)

[@wizardandwisdom]

I suffered from that too. When I took my time, my accuracy went up by 10% (from 125 to 127). Wish the same to you as well.

[@129354gabbie]

Great video, will be coming back and using this for reference, I was engaged and watched the whole way through!

[@wizardandwisdom]

For explanation of Q5, the passage did mention what comes before carbon neutrality: "Only then can a lofty goal of carbon neutrality..." People need to get consent first before achieving carbon neutrality.

This helped a lot! thank you !!

[@pavpyro433]

This was great content thank you so much. Your channel has helped me tremendously. 👍

[@Shemmassian]

So happy to hear!

[@insanity.defeated]

omg all the questions shown here are the exact same types of Qs I get wrong on CARS. Thank you for your video! Wishing me luck for 8/26 testing :)))

[@Mariam-wg8gp]

This is amazing. Thank you so much Vikram. I will be taking the MCAT in March and am still struggling with CARS. I will be incorporating your method to see how it works out for me. I was advised not to take more than 4 min to read the passage so I can have about 1 min per question. Do you think reading/jotting down main idea/paragraph would be achieved in this time frame? I think my weakest point in CARS is timing.

[@chinekamcgee615]

Great video ! Thank you!

[@fredmartinez9866]

This truly helped me a lot

[@Shemmassian]

So happy to hear!

[@dananguyen2388]

this video helped a lot. im going to practice applying these tips

[@ochemuniversity3553]

CARS definitely intimidates me the most of all the sections, so I appreciate the tips!

[@Shemmassian]

Our pleasure!

[@ss-nu8xx]

Easy passage. Plus this analysis will take way over the allocated 10 min per passage.

[@jimmypham4904]

Thank you!

[@Shemmassian]

Our pleasure!

[@thaiso7978]

Could you please do an example of multiple and competitive views?

[@shouri9494]

Can you discuss why not D for the 1st question? If political relationship are worse off - then coordination for climate change becomes tougher - so that hurts the author’s opinion doesn’t it?

[@sohamapte436]

Are u sure #4 is correct? I feel like D is the right answer because the said rhetoric questions are to be posed at the environmental committees

[@i123456987654]

thanks Vikram!

[@nikmirsaderov8542]

what app do you use to annotate your screen? also, whens the next webinar?

[@Shemmassian]

We use Google Jamboard, and the next webinar will be soon. Keep an eye out on your email. :)

[@nikmirsaderov8542]

@@Shemmassian I already took the mcat, but thanks for the reply anyway

[@QuickLearnScience]

I’m sorry but I’m still confused from the passage like I listen and read it myself and still can’t find the main idea

[@WSUGLUE]

I think doing some practice in finding the main idea of passages or texts might help. Try to read online how the main idea of a piece of writing is found and how to be able to summarize pieces of text. Also sometimes the main idea or gist of a passage can be gathered from the beginning and end of a passage, the first and last couple sentences. The rest of the passage is most of the time just details/examples. Hopefully this somewhat helps.
