Reviews of AAMC MCAT Interface by Jack Westin

2025-02-03	Hunter Coulter	en	The good: the explanations are 1 billion times better than AAMC's. The bad: When completing AAMC questions, the JW extension tends to bug out and shows the questions I answered as being completed, but when I click "done practicing", it grades questions I didn't even look at. For example, if I did questions 35-40, when I submit, it grades 34-39 and all of the answers are off by one so my accuracy goes down. If you think it might mess with your mental seeing a lower than normal percentage, this might not be as helpful for you. Also, when highlighting, I will be able to highlight but once I go to the next question in the passage, it erases the highlighting and I can't get it back. A waste of time. Also, if I wanted to flag questions using whatever strategies, I wouldn't be able to see the questions I flagged when reviewing.
2025-01-17	Max Foote	en	Lots of issues with the highlighting feature and flagging on AAMC practice. Even marked a couple of the problems I got right as incorrect and marked a few questions as having been answered even though I didn't do them. The JW logo is everywhere too on the AAMC site. Also, one of the benefits of just using the AAMC UI is that you can mark how confident you are on a question and retrospectively compare your self-perception of mastery with actual content mastery. Overall, the JW extension UI is a bit messy and could really use some upgrades. If it wasn't, they should have tested this extension as a beta before they released to the public as a representation of Jack Westin. I was really excited to try this out, and I will keep experimenting, but ultimately I have been disappointed.

2024-08-19	Faizan Talib	en	Great explanations, way better than the AAMC ones, however the JW logos are very distracting, they can be toned down a little bit. The extension also floods the entire page with every solution to every question all onto one page, not sure why.
2024-07-07	Adam Allouch	en	Great, but flagged questions while taking a practice session/exam don't show up when reviewing. Would be perfect if this was corrected.
2024-06-28	Reagan Lee	en	This extension is a game changer and I tell every premed/mcat student to get it!! I gave it 4 stars because sometimes, like others say, the JW logo is so obnoxiously large that it makes it rather distracting and annoying to review the questions/answers. But this only happens sometimes and mostly on the Chem/phys and Bio/biochem section which is very strange. But I really like that the AAMC explanations are still present so I can compare the two. I think the extension needs some tweaking but it has been great thus far! Thanks Jack Westin for saving me time so I don't have to reddit every single AAMC question looking for a better explanation.
2024-05-10	Tanner Rakos	en	extension is amazing, really helps simulate the exam with the AAMC format, and the explanations are 100x better than AAMC's.
2024-05-16	Allie T	en	Seems like a good extension. but why are the JW logos so HUGE in the solutions... makes it difficult to scroll more :(
2024-05-09	Maria Marroquin	en	I'm having the same issue - it is not longer changing the interface to how it looks on test day. Its really annoying and doesn't make me feel like I'm taking the mcat.
2024-05-09	Matthew Minhquang Nguyen	en	Extension is working by providing JW solutions, but after a couple days of using it, it is no longer changing the interface to replicate how the test looks!! Im stuck with the default aamc practice interface!!!
