Prep101 Reviews 

Prep 101 was a really helpful service for me. It gave me a good structure for studying, classes were easy and accessible in case you could not attend live. The instructors were also very helpful at answering questions during and after class time if you needed extra clarification.

My coach, Jade, was also very helpful. She developed a great personalized study plan, offered great advice throughout the course, and was great at checking in and ensuring that I felt ready or more comfortable with the material.

I had a great experience with prep101 MCAT course. The instructors were knowledgeable and explained difficult concepts clearly. Also, my MCAT coach was incredibly helpful throughout the course. They provided personalized guidance, answered my questions, and helped keep me accountable with my studying. I would definitely recommend this course to other MCAT students.

I think the course could be more split in sections such as in the last few weeks it was 3 lectures just for cars which felt annoying like it should be split with the other sections in my opinion. Jade was a huge help in my scheduling and helping me stay on track.

The lessons instructors were very knowledgeable on the content matter, and the lesson plans struck a good balance between being in-depth and easy to follow.

Jade, my study coach, did a great job helping me set goals and help keep me on track by following the study plan we made together.

MCAT coach was very helpful and informative and the course was very helpful in preparing me for my MCAT

This course was very helpful! And Jade was a great coach

My experience with the Live Online Prep 101 MCAT course was extremely positive. I was extremely impressed with the quality of instruction, resources, and support from my coach (Jade). I experienced some unforseen interruptions to my study schedule this summer and Jade was always kind, offered additional help/advice, and increased my confidence. I have not yet taken my MCAT but I am 100% grateful I decided to take their prep course and will definitely utilize their repeat policy should I decide to retake my MCAT. Definitely recommend, especially as a Canadian student! It is really nice to have instructors and coaches familiar with the Canadian application process and how Canada values the MCAT differently than in the US.

The Prep101 MCAT course was the best purchase I made for my MCAT studying. The level of experience from the staff and teaching team made this experience so smooth and truly helped me succeed to my MCAT goals. The structure of the course, ability to reach out with questions, and all the material access given really made an impact on my learning experience.

Nathan was GREAT! The 1 on 1 coaching he did was phenomenal. Professor Mike and Katrina were also INCREDIBLE!

Having an MCAT coach made the biggest difference for me especially to help you stay accountable and on track. Thank you to Victoria who was more than willing to meet with me and help me achieve my goals!

The course material and instructors were amazing and helpful. I was however not added to the group chat with other students. I was notified at the end of my course that I was not added to the chat and was asked if I wanted to be added then. I responded yes and followed up but received no response. I am disappointed in Prep101 because other than this I enjoyed the course. My experience would have been much better had I been a part of the chat.

Katrina and Meaghan (for CARS) were amazing- I struggled with other instructors.
I learnt minimal biology from this course.
Even if you do all the work, attend all coaching sessions, it's very difficult to succeed on actual MCAT content. This course doesn't effectively teach much. Also, having to login again every few minutes is very annoying. I do not feel well prepared for my MCAT.

I’ve had a great experience with Prep101. The course is well organized, the instructors explain difficult MCAT concepts clearly, and the study materials are very helpful.

I especially want to thank my coach, Nathan. He has been incredibly supportive throughout my preparation. Even though I had a very demanding university schedule, Nathan worked with me to create a realistic study plan that allowed me to balance both my university classes and MCAT preparation. His guidance, encouragement, and flexibility made the process much less stressful and helped me stay on track.

I love the enthusiasm from all the teachers during the lectures; it made learning so much fun. The structure was great for my learning; I really don't know how I would have learned all the material any other way. Super grateful for all the support from the entire prep101 team on my MCAT journey, you guys are awesome!!

Unfortunately, while trying to contact some of the teachers, I failed to get a response back on multiple occasions. It left a lot of unanswered questions on certain topics, which I had to eventually move on from. This is the one reason I did not give my rating full stars. However, I will say Katrina has an excellent response record and never left me hanging!

Really amazing instructors, each with their own distinct teaching style. Katrina specifically made learning physics and chemistry especially fun! My instructor Ariyan helped a lot as well.

The instructors were excellent. They gave good explanations, were diligent in answering questions, and were engaging. I liked that the content books in the course were simplified down to the most important things, and that we consistently reviewed practice questions and did mini exams every lecture.

I really liked the 1 on 1 coaching aspect of the course. It helped me stay on track and ensure my study strategies were appropriate. Having my coach create a study schedule, a test score tracker, and a question review sheet for my practice exams allowed me to focus more on studying. I think that the coaching aspect is an area that could be potentially expanded on in the future, in terms of coaches being even more immersed in the experience of their students with more frequent calls, and more direct support, etc.

One thing that I did not utilize throughout the course was the lecture pre-reads. I personally found these to be too passive and take too long. I found it took away from practice time, and I retained little from it. I am not sure what changes could be made, but I just wanted to share my personal experience. Still, the lectures and subsequent practice questions and review made up for this.

Overall, my experience was very positive and I would recommend prep 101 to other students who intent to write the MCAT!

Good helper who planned very well, helped with answering all my questions.

Classes were well structured and interesting, and all the professors are great. The only reason I didn't give a perfect score is when signing up the schedule stated classes were mon-wed but most weeks we ended up having a thursday class too. I was a bit unexpected and impacted my schedule. The classes are all recorded though so at least you won't miss content
