User reviews

Users appreciate the improved explanations and more realistic exam interface provided by the AAMC MCAT Interface by Jack Westin, which offers valuable insights beyond official materials. However, many find the extension buggy and unstable, with frequent grading errors and lost highlights. The interface design is criticized for being cluttered and distracting, especially due to large logos and video content. Highlighting and flagging features often malfunction, and navigation between questions is cumbersome. Despite its potential, users express desire for significant improvements in stability and usability to make it more effective as a study tool.

Pros

Explanations are significantly better and more detailed than the official AAMC explanations.
The extension simulates the actual MCAT exam interface better than the default AAMC interface.
Combines AAMC explanations with Jack Westin's elaborations, providing valuable insight for students.
The extension is recognized as a valuable study aid and recommended by some users.
It helps save time by providing more comprehensive explanations without needing to search elsewhere like Reddit.

Cons

The extension is frequently buggy with issues such as incorrect grading, skipped questions, and resetting of answers or highlights.
The interface is considered cluttered and overwhelming, with large Jack Westin logos and excessive information displayed at once making navigation difficult.
Highlighting and flagging features often malfunction or do not work as intended, including loss of highlights and inability to view flagged questions during review.
Videos included in the explanations are seen as distracting and an unnecessary addition that complicates review sessions.
Navigation issues such as inability to skip directly to specific questions and laggy response during passages reduce usability.

Extension is great. Im shocked by those complaining. The videos are amazing. If I were to give one suggestion, it would be to format the answer explanations a bit better. The wall of text makes it hard. But LOVE the videos!

Explanations are absolutely atrocious, better than aamc? yes, but still garbage. The addition of the video interface was horrible, it makes reviewing an absolute nightmare. The sole purpose of including the video with the first 30 seconds is to bait people into purchasing a subscription

Bob Smith, 2025-05-08

OVERKILL!!!!! I had to remove the extension, it was a mess, although I will say it was better than AAMC explanations. However, please remove the video and the explanation does not need to be the length of the declaration of independence, I removed the extension because it became too much, reddit works better anyways for explanations.
