Turn your mobile device into your classroom – focus on learning on your time. You’ll also have access to your course material anywhere you happen to be. Access live instruction if you are in a live class.
EXPERT INSTRUCTORS
Kaplan requires every instructor to be score-qualified and rigorously trained on the entire exam—ensuring that you’ll be taught by a team of experts in the subject they are teaching.
UNLIMITED COURSE ACCESS
Students will have access to numerous live, scheduled channel sessions. Don’t fret if you skip any, with every episode available on demand, you never have to miss a beat.
ONLINE COURSES
Our online programs deliver customized instruction based on each student’s individual learning needs. Students will be able to build their skills, endurance, and confidence for test day.
Session Overview
PLEASE READ: To start a course in a particular month, you must purchase it before the 15th of that month. For example if you want to enroll in a course that begins June 22nd, you would need to purchase it before June 15th. The course you select must also be at least two-weeks out to allow enough time to complete the enrollment process. For example, our Kaplan partner requires time to ship you your materials before the first day.
Here’s what a typical classroom course looks like from start to finish. Each session builds off the next, and the practice tests are sure to help you feel calm and confident come test day.
Critical Reading IPCAT Strategies, Critical Reading Passages, Critical Reading Questions
After this session you will be able to describe the sections of the PCAT and their scoring systems; formulate a personal study calendar that includes all the necessary actions from now until Test Day; recall and implement the steps of Kaplan’s question, answer choice, and computer-based test strategies; describe the format and timing of the Critical Reading section; and recall and implement the steps for reading strategically and classifying Critical Reading question types.
