This extension allows users who have AAMC practice material to view it in the proper intended MCAT exam format and provides highlight, strikethrough, next question, previous question functionality in order to best practice for the MCAT.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to recent AAMC updates the extension is not working for CARS Diagnostic Tool Passages. We are aware of the situation and are working to fix the issue as quickly as possible. We appreciate your patience.
Help please. I can’t see the answer choices and it is not letting me proceed to the next question. Thanks
Really enjoy this interface so far, it works really well for a plugin and I was totally impressed with how seamless it incorporates itself. I already am acustomed to JackWestin’s free Question of the Day passages, so I am familiar with the layout JackWestin uses to stimualte the MCAT. My only complaint is I wish it saved your progress time correctly when you’re done, but its really a minor inconvience for getting test like stimulation. I do wish it ran a little bit smoother on my computer too but realy great plug in overall. I love seeing that JackWestin is constantly working on updates to fix bugs and offer a more realistic MCAT test like experience with practice questions.
it puts in the wrong answer on AAMC so i can’t keep track of my progress. When clicking on the solution button it also doesn’t work more than half the time. However, the concept and structure of it is amazing, but it needs a lot more work, I will be removing it until JW can fix these issues.
you can see the right answer because of the blue solution icon moving down when the right answer is clicked out of the 4. needs to be fixed because i am using a piece of black tape to hide it lol. thanks jw. pce
Overall, would not recommend using it until they fix the serious problems.
Pros:
– looks like actual MCAT interface
Cons:
– saves all of your answers as A, regardless of what you entered
– sets the time that you spent on each question as 1 second, regardless of how long you actually attempted the question
– doesn’t show the answer explanation
– doesn’t let you move on to the next question. I reset all my questions as the extension asked, but then when I use the add-on, it doesn’t let me progress to the next question.
I have been trying to visualize all the material I bought from the AAMC in this format, and it wasn’t possible, until I found this extension. The idea is incredible! However, I am bummed that all my answers keep appearing as A, so I cannot get a feel for a realistic progress in the AAMC Hub dashboard. I keep resetting my products and it still doesn’t work.
Like I said, great resource, but it still needs some work as far as syncing with the actual AAMC dashboard. In the meantime, I will have to use the usual AAMC interface while I review content, and hopefully a new update for this extension will be released soon, for when I start working on my timing.
Doens’t save progress and only answers A, it’s better to just deal with AAMC’s cheap format than deal with this
I used the “reset all questions” for the pack (CARS) that I was using and it still skipped my questions. When I finished practice, I clicked results and “save”, but when I returned to the AAMC layout, it recorded all answers as ‘A’. I tried resetting again for another question pack and with the intention of not using the “save” feature and just seeing how it worked, but while I was reading the passage and tried to highlight, the app froze and I was unable to continue on the page.
Great concept, but does not currently work well.
thank u
Love this extension, but when I submitted my answers, it still chose all the answers as ‘A’.
can’t get past the loading screen…(yes, my browser and everything is updated)
I used the extension yesterday and it worked great! However today when I clicked on the extension, it never loads. Please fix!
Every time I click on the extension through Chrome on the practice page, it never loads or opens up the interface! Any fixes to this?
OMG this is exactly what I’ve been waiting for! I hated that AAMC didn’t set up their practice packets with an interface like the actual MCAT. This is HUGE!! Thank you, Jack! 🙂
This is absolutely amazing, you MUST use it!! Thank you Jack!!!
Brenan’s review is accurate. Would love if it didn’t preselect the answer to be A. and it didnt move forward if you leave the interface. All in all AMAZING move in the right direction!!!!
Works great! Please add a timer and make it possible to select the answer choice by clicking on the words instead of the circle.
Works pretty well so far. Nice to have. Shocked that AAMC hasn’t done this themselves.
EDIT: This works well just for a change in format, however it does not align with the AAMC and seems to answer the question if you look at it. This means you must submit an answer before moving forward or it will submit A for you.
