Acceleration, that tricky little concept that shows up in just about every physics question. From the applied acceleration in kinematics, to the implied acceleration of gravity, this topic will show up again and again in your MCAT practice. With multiple related equations, it’s important that you have a proper understanding of this not-so-intuitive concepts in […]
Velocity and Speed in MCAT Translational Motion Video 5
One of the most critical concepts you will cover in preparation for your MCAT is the topic of velocity, often confused with ‘speed’. Velocity questions may be disguised in any of the topics covered later on, from simple accelerate to circuits, waves and optics. The video below gives you a quick overview of the difference […]
Adding Two Dimensional MCAT Vectors Using Angles and Vector Components Translational Motion Video 4
This video picks up from Part 3 where we discussed adding and subtracting vectors when facing in the same and opposite directions. But the MCAT is designed to be tricky, and so you will likely find yourself faced with a problem combining vectors at some odd angle off the x-axis or y-axis. This video shows […]
Vectors and Vector Components in MCAT Translational Motion Video 2
As you are reviewing your general physics concepts for the MCAT you will come across practice questions utilizing 1, 2, or 3 dimensions. While the MCAT only tests on single and two-dimensional problems, you will often find yourself faced with a vector situated between the x and y axis. However, some of the required calculations, […]
Introduction to Translational Motion in MCAT Physics
The topic of translational motion and standard kinematics may very well be one of the most important concepts to cover in your MCAT physical sciences preparations. As you work through the different topics in physics you will find yourself returning to these equations again and again. Given how important this is, I recommend that you […]
How She Scored a 518 on Her MCAT
The MCAT is a grueling 7.5 hour exam and should not be approached lightly. However, hearing that you need to devote ~500 hours over 6-8 months can sound overwhelming if you’re just getting started. Many struggle, and many many students postpone and retake. But… this is typically due to inadequate preparation or unpredictable circumstances. If […]
Postponed MCAT on Winding Road to Medicine
Today I want to introduce you to one of my Study Hall members who took the MCAT on Friday August 5th. While every story is unique to the student in question, I know you’ll find many gold nuggets in reading about her struggles and triumphs. My Winding Road to Medicine I had wanted to be […]
2018 MCAT Dates
2018 cycle is over, Click HERE to see 2019 Test Dates! Are you thinking of taking the MCAT in 2018? The dates are finally out! (registration doesn’t open for a bit longer) What you’re looking at here: The MCAT is typically given a number of times in January – this is the winter schedule. The […]
How to Memorize MCAT Equations
Memorizing equations is just one small aspect of the MCAT puzzle. Yes, the MCAT it is an exam of data interpretation, logic, and reasoning with content foundation at its core. But equations are essential parts of that core! While equations show up most frequently in Physics and General Chemistry, they also grace you with their […]
How to Build Endurance for the 7.5 hour MCAT
The 2015 MCAT is not only a newer exam but it’s also longer, in the number of sections and the time per section. Although the exam itself is just over six hours, which includes four sections 90 to 95 minutes each, the breaks in between sections bring it a total of seven and one half […]
