Testing this Friday but wanted to leave a review before I forget. I'm incredibly grateful for this extension and why the AAMC doesn't format their practice material to simulate their ACTUAL exam is beyond me.

Like another reviewer mentioned, if I'm on question #1 and want to go to question #50, I have to click through the questions one by one. This is NOT an issue for FLs (what counts), so I'd love for that to be addressed.

Thank you JW and team, your resources (particularly daily CARS) have provided a ton of value.

Signing off,

NEEDS UPDATE ASAP! WAS WORKING FINE (actually great)––now it does not sync questions solved when back to AAMC (it only shows the last question done).

The idea is great and it is nice to be able to review the AAMC material in the actual MCAT format, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired.

There are a fair number of spelling mistakes and sometimes the explanations are overcomplicated even though they are better than the AAMCs.

The plugin is also super buggy at times. Sometimes it won't load, other times the answer choices are recorded incorrectly, the navigation is useless since you have to click through every question before they show up in the, I have also had some weird issue where it will just randomly scroll through questions until it hits the end.

I really wish I knew about this extension earlier, but I am glad I know about it now!

Invaluable resource! My brain hurts trying to decipher some of AAMC's explanations and this is a great supplement to understanding the questions more. I also like that the explanations are simplified as if a real, "normal" human being/friend is talking to me, unlike AAMC and the MCAT's verbiage. Thankfully, I have not found any issues yet and it seems to work fine for me. I usually have the AAMC version and then the JW version pulled up at the same time while reviewing. I'm glad this is available for FREE and I really appreciate Jack Westin, Phil, the company for all the help they've given with this MCAT Beast! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!

This extension is an essential companion to AAMC review material! I personally find the official explanations for the AAMC section bank and full lengths to be too brief and confusing. This extension supplements the material by adding well explained and thorough reasoning behind each question and why each answer was correct or incorrect. I recommend this to everyone studying for the MCAT. Big thanks to Jack Westin!

Overall the extension provides great explanations to some otherwise lacking AAMC answer explanations.
I also appreciate the reformatting to mimic what the test day format will be for these questions.
However, please take a closer look at some of the integration. I got tripped up a few B/B section bank questions because it was marked as incorrect in the JW extension meanwhile my answer choice was correct. Actually on a few I've noticed that no selection option will result in it appearing as a correct answer choice.

I really find this useful. The AAMC explanations are worthless most of the time. They mostly say "the answer is A because I said so" but this explains the reasoning behind each option and why each one is wrong/correct
