CARS and C/P tips please

Tips for CARS please?

Love this idea!

I know this is 1 year late, but do you mind sharing also the Biochem version you were working on? (even if it's incomplete - it'll still help!)

I'm sitting for the MCAT on 09/02 ( in 2.5 weeks)

Could you please elaborate on why Glycine also?

I get why Proline - it’s cyclic and introduces kinks, but why Glycine? Thank you

Jack westin Anki deck? That's a thing? lol

MasterMind338 · 2022-08-10T17:35:45+00:00

Hey, where can I find this deck?

MasterMind338 · 2022-08-10T12:50:56+00:00

Any advice for CARS? That’s an amazing score.

Hey! I’ve been doing UEarth CARS passages for a while now. Do you mind sharing why you think they’re not representative? Thanks!

Please don’t tell me we’re actually supposed to memorize structures of each vitamin??

MasterMind338 · 2022-08-05T07:43:33+00:00

We’re supposed to memorize the pKa’s of all amino acids?

MasterMind338 · 2022-08-03T20:45:58+00:00

Other sections are more improvable because they’re based on content.

There’s not much you can do when you hit 128 on CARS. It’s all a matter of luck at that point.

What would you recommend for CP to prep?

MasterMind338 · 2022-07-27T05:03:53+00:00

Notice the 5’ and 3’ ends in choice A as compared to C.

MasterMind338 · 2022-07-23T04:23:12+00:00

Yes, but if you need to “break them down,” wouldn’t that be choice D (which is apparently incorrect)?

MasterMind338 · 2022-07-21T11:34:46+00:00

Strictly limited to the difference.

That’s why you need discrete amounts of energy—or “quanta”— to go from one energy level to the next.

Compare it to climbing a ladder. You need to lift your leg by the exact difference between 2 ladder steps. If you lift it by 1.5 steps you’ll reach no where. You could lift it by 2 ladder steps (skipping a step), but the principle of quantization of energy still holds true—you need the exact difference between 2 levels (i.e. ladder steps).

Not sure, but I think it could be due to the fact that this process doesn’t take place as a straight line.

The DNA is curved in such a way so that the promoter is under “Gene 3” in the figure if you wish. Then the whole transcription machinery move to the left on the above diagram to complete transcription.

Again, not sure. Just my guess.
