As you spend more time using the apps content, the app will automatically track your progress with the material. The tracking makes it easier for you to identify what material you have mastered and what material you should be spending more time on.  The apps practice tests are customizable to suit your needs, ensuring that you are getting the most out of your studying time with the app.   Along with content to help you study, the app offers a list of top medical schools and admission details. With each school listed, you will know their average MCAT score, ranking in the nation, and tuition cost, which will help you compare your level of studying to your end goal. Be aware that the initial download is free along with the first free lessons as a trial, but you will need to spend $149.99 to have full access to the apps contents.

The app allows you to search and filter mnemonics based on subjects, such as anatomy, biology, and physics, add items to a favorite list for easy access, edit existing mnemonics to suit your needs, and create mnemonics of your own. The simplicity of the app may seem off-putting, but can also be more efficient as you may not necessarily want to be diving into dense content on your commute or on a break in between lectures. 3. SDN MCAT Comprehensive At $2.99, the Student Doctor Network (SDN) offers an app that helps prospective medical students maximize the efficiency of studying for the MCAT on the go.
