too easy

This may be useful for some but I found it completely unhelpful. I did not understand the definitions and I found myself memorizing their definitions provided rather than gaining an understanding of the terms. This is not how the terms will appear on the MCAT.

This deck is great! One of the previous reviews defined this deck as "descriptive yet concise" which is spot on. This covers lots of topics, but provides links in most cards with pages explaining the topics. This is extremely helpful because this can be a quick paced review. However if you are rusty in this area, this is a great resource to learn more about these topics. I highly suggest this deck! Thank you to the person that made this!! Please make more. :)

Great deck. By far the best I've seen on here -- since you have an entire Wiki pushing it out, I suppose your tools are better. Takes nothing from the effect. Well done. Well done indeed.

Seems very comprehensive and that a lot of attention has gone into making it great. I like that it is divided into sections and references.

AWESOME DECK! somehow best of both worlds very detailed yet concise.

Here's a possible correction: A card reads "________ area is one of the two parts of the cerebral cortex linked to speech (the other is Broca's area). It is involved in the production of written and spoken language." The answer given is Wernicke's Area, this might be mixed, because in Kaplan it states that Wernicke's is responsible for audio comprehension, whereas Broca's is responsible for production. [mnemonic: Bro=Pro-duction, Wernicke=Were you listening?]
