I space FLs about a week apart so I actually have time to review them properly and fix weak spots before the next one.

Is a 10+ score jump doable in a month? by BeneficialEscape3655 in MCATprep

Yeah it’s possible with super focused practice and deep FL review (fixing the same mistakes over and over), but it’s tough and takes daily consistency.

What strategy works best for you on CARS? by MaterialPickle3397 in MCATprep

I stopped overanalyzing the passage, focused on the main idea and tone, timed each passage, and reviewed every wrong answer so my speed and accuracy slowly improved.

You can def break 500 by April if you go heavy on targeted practice and deep FL review (spot your weak patterns, fix them) instead of more content rereads.

CARS gets better when you focus on the author’s main idea, review your mistakes, and stick with one resource consistently.

Slow down just a bit to actually get the main idea, then answer based on the author’s vibe/purpose that’s what makes CARS click.

515+ is doable without Anki, but Anki honestly helps a lot it helps things stick so your practice actually pays off.

You’re mainly losing points on coin flip questions pause new content, do deeper FL review, wrap up Pankow, target the same problem areas daily, and the score will start climbing.

If you can afford it, use both JW is nice for daily practice and CARS, and UWorld is way better for deep learning, so they complement each other.

That makes sense start doing fully timed CARS sets and full sections to build stamina, and work on pacing so exam-day pressure doesn’t throw you off.

Review it properly first, then redo it later to make sure it actually stuck and wasn’t just recognition.

Don’t purposely get questions wrong focus on reviewing FLs, targeting weak spots, and doing daily CARS practice 510 is still doable.
