The first technical tutorial that didn’t make me want to leap into the abyss

Look. It’s a reference book. So an audio version isn’t going to exactly tell a compelling story. And, while normally this kind of reference would be beyond boring and sleep-inducing, I have to say that it felt a bit compelling to listen to in this context and in the author’s choice of presentation, vocalization, etc. For instance, whereas I normally need to play around with the speed to comprehend an audio dictation of this kind of guide, to compensate for an incomprehensible factor involved with unintelligible composition and presentation, I was tracking right along and even felt the delivery to be quite soothing, as odd as that may sound. I usually find such guides annoyingly unapproachable, yet I was lulled right along by the reader’s voice and, following along with my other reference guides of study from my prior coursework and notes, I was able to track right along with it with considerable ease. Overall I found this an excellent tool and was surprised to find an audio version that was a pleasure to listen to for a change. I found it more than helpful and it even revealed to me, in its clarity, a few areas that I didn’t quite comprehend as well as I thought and needed to review, restudy and sharpen my knowledge of. Thanks very much for publishing this!

Good narration

Very good narration. This is not something you can listen to without the book as it regularly refers to diagrams, illustrations, etc.
Narrator keeps it real. Look for some humorous "Easter Eggs" as he struggles with pronunciation of some super technical terms.

Smooth narration

Very informative text. The narration is great. The narrator’s voice is smooth, easy to understand and follow along with.

Straight Facts—No Fluff—Your Crash-Course Lifeline

Yo, if you're tryna dive into the MCAT grind and not drown, this audiobook is clutch. Like, I won’t lie, it’s not the most thrilling listen—there’s no epic beats or mind-blowing voiceovers—but it gets the job done. The info is on point, straight facts, no fluff, which I appreciate 'cause I don’t have time for that.

The narrator’s vibe is a little meh, though. Like, they sound like your chem TA who’s trying too hard to make glycolysis sound cool. But whatever, you’re not here for entertainment; you’re here to not bomb the MCAT.

It’s kinda like drinking black coffee: not the most enjoyable, but it’ll wake you up and get you where you need to go. If you’re a procrastinator (no shame, we all been there), this crash course really hits—it’s got everything condensed and easy to digest. Just don’t expect it to make you a genius overnight.

Overall, a solid 4 stars. Would I listen to it again? Yeah, but only under duress. It’s practical, it’s useful, and it’s probably the best thing you’ll find for when you’re down to the wire.

Narrator

I, like many others. Wanted a deep dive into the MCAT to just have it in my ear while I work and study. It was good for the first section where it was just straight to the point. However, starting the organic chemistry section I was appalled at the narrative. First off, I can tell by the sudden pauses talking and words strung about (a couple of “oh my god” phrases were said) and at the 30:00 mark the narrator belched, then proceeded to say “motherfucker”. I’m not sure how a clear draft ended up in this audiobook but it ruined the ability for me to listen any longer.

This is truly an embarrassment for the doctor who wrote the book and an embarrassment on my part for spending a monthly credit.
