With so much information out there, how do you even know where to start? Here is a list of resources (and why) I recommend using in preparation for your upcoming exam. Start with the the ‘How to use your MCAT resources‘ chapter in my new guide. Wondering how I’m any different than the other information sources? […]
Applying to Medical School BEFORE Taking Your MCAT
The sooner you apply to medical school, The better your chances of getting accepted. This is how the rolling admissions process works for medical school acceptance. But does this work if you don’t have your MCAT scores yet? Can you apply to medical school before taking the MCAT? While the short answer is yes, It’s […]
Her Self Study MCAT Prep Journey
You are unique! This makes your premed experience unique and your MCAT prep journey individual TO YOU! What works for one student may not work for another, but this doesn’t mean you can’t learn from their experience, especially if they’ve already taken the time to evaluate an approach and provide feedback. Meet LeAnn. She started […]
The Right Time to Take the MCAT
When should you take your MCAT? This is the million dollar question. If your dream is to become a physician, you have to take the MCAT. Medical schools in the United States and Canada require this exam; as well as many schools in the Caribbean, Australia, Europe, even Asia. Since the majority of my MCAT […]
Am I Ready For the MCAT? How to Evaluate
You’ve already invested years into your Med School prerequisites and months into preparing for the MCAT, but are you ready to test?How do you know when you’re ready to take the MCAT? WHEN you take the MCAT is nearly as important as getting the right score. If you’re applying to schools with rolling admissions (most […]
MCAT Torque Study Guide Cheat Sheet
Torque is one of those ‘tricky’ topics that shows up in the MCAT Physics sciences section. While not tested too heavily, it’s still important for you to have a solid understanding of the concepts and equations, especially when it comes to converting between the linear kinematics you are so familiar with, to the angular formulas […]
Intro to Balancing Redox Reactions
Balancing Redox Reactions is about more than just balancing atoms. Since oxidation and reduction involve the transfer of electrons, we also have to keep an eye on atoms and charge. Of course, if you’re wondering how redox reactions apply to the Galvanic/Voltaic or Electrolytic cell, visit my Electrochemistry series as well. Balancing Redox Equations Video […]
Oxidation and Reduction Reactions
Oxidation and Reduction reactions happen all the time in a living system and thus are very likely to show up on the MCAT. This video walks you through oxidation and reduction reactions, how to figure out the half reactions, and how to easily recognize (+ trick) what gets oxidized and what gets reduced. You’ll also […]
Calculating Oxidation Numbers in MCAT General Chemistry
Oxidation numbers can be confusing, unless you think of it as charge (real or imaginary) associated with each specific atom in a complex molecule or polyatomic ion. Calculating Oxidation Numbers Video 1 – Oxidation Numbers This video shows you how to find and calculate oxidation numbers when given simple and complex molecules or ions. (Watch […]
Force Of Gravity in MCAT Physics (vid 7)
Gravity is a force that we tend to take for granted. On the MCAT, you may see questions asking you to relate gravitational force to other forces. You can expect to see questions on gravity near the surface of the earth as well out away from earth – for example, an astronaut in a spaceship. […]
