Applying to medical school means keeping track of years of work at once: every course and what it did to your GPA, every hour of clinical and research experience, MCAT section scores, a shortlist of schools, a personal statement and a secondary essay for each of them. Most people run this out of scattered spreadsheets and notes, and lose track of it exactly when it matters. Premed Prep puts all of it in one place. It keeps your coursework and GPA, MCAT scores, experiences, school research and essays together, adds MCAT practice with full-length exams and performance breakdowns, and connects you to a members community where premed coaches and MCAT tutors answer questions. It is for anyone on the path to medical school, whether you are a first year still deciding or in the middle of an application cycle.

The PreMed App's advantage is ratings volume (25 vs 3) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
