WHY MCATBYJAMES CARS COURSE INSTEAD OF STUDYING ON MY OWN?

​

• Practice does not make perfect, it may even make your bad reading habits even worse. It's "quality" practice that makes perfect. If you have performed numerous passages and you still end up making the same mistakes, there is a high chance you are consolidating a bad technique, rather than starting from ground zero and understanding how to apply the right approach towards a CARS passage.

• MCATbyJAMES is ONLY CARS course developed that actually teaches you how to break the passages down step-by-step, paragraph-by-paragraph, question-by-question. 

• As a former lead tutor for many big prep companies such as Princeton, Kaplan, Prep101, I can thoroughly see the mistakes that these companies make. Not only will you get more confused and feel overwhelmed by the tactics that you won't know how to apply, but it could also take away a lot of your time studying the wrong thing.

WHY THE CARS SECTION IS IMPORTANT, IF NOT, THE MOST IMPORTANT SECTION OF THE MCAT EXAM

​

• A lot of Canadian universities ONLY look at the CARS section as the determining factor for the MCAT.

• The passages are written in a way to trick you to think in a certain way, even though it means something else. 

• CARS will also help you to improve your scores in all other MCAT Sections.

WHY ME?

​

"This is a culmination of 8 years in the making with diverse experiences from hundreds of students. I have designed this course with one thing in mind: to get meaning from what you are reading. In other words, to show you what you are reading, and why you are actually reading it. Many students come to me not knowing where to even start and what to focus on, and this course was designed to tackle that head-on.This course is meant to give you the proper mental structure, rather than just "tips" that you will see in other prep courses.  

​

By the end of it, my goal is to change the way you read. It's not about checking answers to see if you got it right or wrong, but it's to give you the critical thinking and reasoning skills to apply it to a variety of passages with a clear structure of how to break it down and what to look for. This type of critical thinking applies not just to the CARS section, but also the Biological Sciences, Physical Sciences and Psychology/Sociology sections. As the MCAT is entirely passage based, knowing how to properly approach a passage is without a doubt, the most important skill, much more than content retrieval and memorization."
