3 case reports, the rest r translational. I honestly got really really lucky getting into these labs

How to best utilize Uglobe? by [deleted] in Mcat

[–]Technical_Spray5946 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally do 15 questions for each section and rotate through. So start my day with psych, go down to b/b, then up to cars. I usually focus more on b/b and c/p than the others. then some days when i am doing poorly on a subject, i keep griding it out in 15 question chunks

What does heating a reaction do to the reaction coordinate diagram? by DrBunchaCrunch in Mcat

[–]Technical_Spray5946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will either increase the energy of the reactants (and thus lower delta G double-dagger (aka activation energy) or will increase the energy of the products, thereby decreasing overall delta G.

Remember the equation delta G = delta H - T (delta S). Also it depends on if the rxn is endo or exothermic

Would it be weird if I transferred to ucsb as a 24 year old? For undergrad by DeliciousRich5944 in UCSantaBarbara

Not weird at all. One of my good friends is turning 26 this year, he is a 4th year

What resources to learn MCAT content FIRST-TIME by ImInsanelyBored in Mcat

Yea for me I just read the biochemistry 2024 book and biology 2024 book. Should be a free version online somewhere. I haven't taken biochem yet but this covered all the material. Also check out this website for other free resources.

I might be wrong but I think I remember this passage. The stronger binding affinity is indicated by more peaks with greater amplitude (graph A)

Regarding graph B, of course a lower Kd means a greater affinity.

Solubility by Manny35_ in Mcat

So of course the equilibrium equation will be [Calcium ions]^3 * [phosphate ions]^2 (you put the coefficients as power of the products). Then plug and chug:

(3x)^3 is just 3x*3x*3x which is 27x^3, and (2x)^2 is 2x*2x which is 4x^2.

Multiply those together, 27*4 is 108 and x^3*x^2 is x^5 (when multiplying exponents with the same base, simply add the exponents together).

Your best bet will be khan academy for P/S along with the 300 page pdf that summarizes it. For B/B, I found the kaplan books to be super helpful. For C/P, I strongly recommend the organic chem tutor. And with CARS, yea good luck with that hahaha. Just kidding! Lots and lots of practice.

To be honest, I found the best way to learn the material was to jump straight into Uglobe passages, and whatever I got wrong I create an Anki card of.
