Can I use the Princeton Review 2006 MCAT Textbooks to study for a 2009 exam?

Question

Are the 2006 Princeton Review MCAT textbooks up to date with the present MCAT material? Would there only be minor differences/discrepancies between 2006 and 2008 textbook?

Answer 1

I would recommend buying up to date books, most testing companies update their material yearly in order to follow the trends that the MCAT is on. The biggest thing I think for is that the 2006 might still be focused on the paper based MCAT, rather than having updated to fit the new form and content of the computer based MCAT. There were some major changes, because some material was difficult to use on a computer, etc.
