### 4/5 — Great content

*2017-04-19*

Great content, but I don't love the UI

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Stole My Money

*2021-07-13*

DO NOT BUY! I took my MCAT months ago (did not use this app) and was surprised this morning to see a charge on my card for this app. I haven’t paid for it in months because I cancelled my subscription, but somehow it stole my money this morning! As a low income student, this is very upsetting—that is $30 that I can’t spare! This app is just stealing money from vulnerable students, when it should be helping us study to become physicians. DO NOT BUY!

### 1/5 — Super hard to cancel 20$ subscription!!!

*2018-12-21*

This has a 20$ a month subscription and it is super hard to cancel so it says try it out for free for 3 days but then you can’t cancel. Don’t download this trap!!!

### 1/5 — Education should be free

*2018-11-06*

All these test prep apps want to charge money to poor, struggling, stressed out students. Can’t a company cut us a freaking break.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2018-05-22*

24 hours of free access only, and they bombard you with emails - I had to unsubscribe because it was emails EVERY DAY. There are better apps.

### 2/5 — Passages not available to fully see

*2024-05-27*

Not sure if it’s a glitch or what but I can usually only see the upper left quarter of the passage (on my iPad). I’m in nursing school as well (decided to pursue med school now but that’s besides the point) but I wish this app was as good as the NCLEX app made by the same people. The only section I can see the full passage in is CARS.

### 2/5 — You have to purchase

*2020-08-25*

It’s basically a free trial with very limited options unless you purchase🙃

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review, Maryam! We feel our product is worth the investment, so we give users a preview to judge for themselves. We would be happy to discuss our pricing options with you. Please contact us at feedback@hltcorp.com or 319-246-5271.

### 2/5 — Warning:  Wrong info!

*2019-07-03*

I was first excited that they had mnemonics.  However, within about 5 minutes of trying it out, I found a mnemonic that was totally wrong.  Regarding Muscle Contraction, it said “Calcium cation attaches to CALMODULIN, which activates Myosin.”  Definitely wrong!

**Developer response:** First off, wanted to apologize for your experience. We will review our mnemonic content and edit appropriately. If you have other feedback, please email us at medical@hltcorp.com. Thanks so much.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2019-02-12*

This app is a great study tool for the MCAT. It allows you to mar what you know and what you don’t allowing you to prioritize what you need to work on. I think they could improve if they added a highlight tool that allows you to highlight important information in the explanation of the answer but otherwise I think it’s great

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review! Feedback is important to us.

### 4/5 — Wow. Great buy

*2018-09-28*

Try this out for the hour or two it gives you complete access. You’ll see why I am pumped and why I got the sub. The content is dense. I have taken the MCAT before and the questions are very similar and explains very clearly why the answers are what they are. Regular updates too. This gets at least one update a month, so it still has quite a bit of life left in it. Save yourself some money and get the yearly sub. You’ll probably end up subbing at least 8 months anyway if you are studying for the MCAT appropriately.

### 4/5 — Overall very good!

*2017-07-02*

While I think some of the answers are not correct and some questions are slightly vague this is a very user friendly and well crafted concept review to help prep for test day! Use it in conjunction with other resources though and it's MCQs are very good but it's content review is somewhat lacking.

## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — It Taught me How Little I Knew

*2019-11-22*

I used this app to first begin preparing for the MCAT. I knew this app was effective because it made me feel like I really had a lot more studying to do. It does a good job showing you where you are weak.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your review! We're glad to hear you found it to be helpful. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help along the way!

### 5/5 — Best study tool I have.

*2018-03-13*

I have so much love for this app, and its contents. Thanks to the makers!

### 5/5 — Great App!!!

*2017-06-05*

I love this app. It's accessible and helps you to prepare for your test.

### 5/5 — Great for getting you ready!

*2017-05-28*

The MCAT is a pain in any sense, and this app gives you a lot of resources to prepare. The practice questions are very well written.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2017-05-21*

I can study anytime on the go. No need to always carry my books and/or notebook.

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2017-05-08*

I'll recommend everyone who needs to be in Med School.

### 5/5 — Great for on breaks and lunch.

*2017-03-31*

This format is better than the older format. Great emphasis on the CARS section.
