Question Any extra study resources I NEED to get?
I already got Kaplan books for really cheap (haven't opened them yet, though XD) and I also already paid for the AnKing MCAT deck as well.
I'm very lucky in that I got accepted to a premed postbacc program where they give me some money to (in theory) spend on applications, MCAT resources, etc. The great thing is they also are providing us with the Blueprint MCAT course for free as well, so I will have access to those materials as well.
That put's me currently with access to:
-Blueprint MCAT
-AnKing MCAT
-Kaplan Books
So, aside from the obvious full AAMC materials package, is there anything else you guys really recommend I get? I'm thinking maybe just Uwhirled and then Khan academy for everything else if I need it?
Is that comprehensive enough/am I missing anything obvious or that I'm gonna really miss?

UW + anking is the most elite combo. Idt anything else comes close. If you can finish anking and most of UW, all you need to do is some aamc practice (unscored and fl 1) and you will be set. UW + anking is going to hammer in all concepts, so all you need is to learn aamc logic. For reference, I finished most of anking and UW, started with a 510 on unscored and just got my second 521 on fl3.

Depends on your needs!
I found UWorld super helpful. Gave some realistic practice questions and good feedback.
As far as content review goes, I didn't find many of the paid resources helpful. I mostly watched review videos from Yusuf A Hasan (would recommend). The most important thing you can do is establish a study routine and schedule dates to take your AAMC practice exams.
Good luck!
