I was VERY skeptical of these when I ordered my first box a few months back. BUT, now I'm a believer in them. They are sort of like Ben Gay on duct tape, but it's a blend of camphor, menthol, and methyl salicylate that lasts for several hours. I get the smaller patches so I can customize where I want the pain relief. I have degenerative disc disease, degenerative joint disease, fibromyalgia, a partially torn ACL that has had to heal on its own due to other medical problems… these patches work well enough to keep buying them. I won't ever be pain free, but these do help.

Bought this with high hopes. Setup was pretty easy. Range is kinda short, like, If you left your keys in the bedroom you probably could find them from the living room. Gives you a warning if you are getting out of range. Here's the problem and its a killer. The battery only lasts for 2 or 3 days. I got my pack with a spare battery and it ran out like overnight, so I installed the spare and it ran out in 2 days. I bought some a pack of spares thinking that maybe the batteries in the pack were old. Nope, died in 3 days. The form is nice, the software is pretty good, but the problems with battery life are a deal-breaker.

I read this book cover to cover and did all the exercises, focusing most on the science and math. While it was certainly helpful in giving me a brief review of everything, it should not be used as a stand alone study guide in preparation for the PCAT. I used the book as a tool to assess my strengths and weaknesses. I worked on each section of the book and in any area I did poorly, I made note of. After going through the entire book, I took any area I was weak in, got out my old textbooks and school notes and reviewed with those materials. If you study with the this strategy, you will do much better.
