Is it true the MCAT is curved? I take it in august. What books do you suggest I use? Kaplan or EK?

Yes, its true the MCAT is curved.

So if the MCAT form you take seems really easy, I would be very concerned since the curve is going to be really steep. On the other hand, if your form was extremely difficult, I wouldn't worry because it is likely other people thought it was difficult as well.

I hear the reason why it takes them like 3 months to grade a scantron is because they run all kinds of statistical analyses on each administration between each form and probably between each question to come up with the appropriate distribution for the curve.
