There is a person by the name of Acintya in the prep journals who is taking them as we speak.Why don't you pm this person and find out. I had taken centre prep in 2005 and then took the exam much later. For a person who has o motivation or direction, they were OK. I believe if you have the determination in you and you remember how to study from final MBBS years, then u don't need to spend that kind of money. But if you are totally lost then take some help. Good luck tp u.

Hi , try 1 day free pass , go sit there , read with their books, dvd , write notes at same time as ur in center enrolled student, we all ends up liking it, but try u'll like it or not . Alot doing in center , live combo , do center then go to live then back to center . Helpful or not, all up to you , even you get all 350 Q to ask , if you do not study well , you will barely make it . But kaplan is the famous big shot one like FA etc , golj as every one said .But not all like same , not all prep same, not all prep same has same score or prep different have same score . So use best one & right one , but suit you best & study hard well to pass well . For sure if ur going to enroll at big center, the vibe of study environment & help is the best you can get . GL

i am doing the 30 visits center prep and i like it. but it depends on what you need and study style. Live Lectures are focused and forces you to study for 8 hours a day in 7 weeks. and you are immersed in the study environment. Center Prep goes at your own pace and you can rewind the videos. but you are on your own time. That's if you need the structure. The notes are basically the same as the older versions and you get them cheaper on the internet. So it is best to be honest with yourself and go from there.

I thought they were a waste of time. I did the videos. Ended up just studying from the notes. They are great and all you need.
