What are the essential amino acids that must be obtained from diet?
Phenylalanine, Valine, Threonine, Tryptophan, Isoleucine, Methionine, Histidine, Leucine, Lysine (mnemonic: PVT TIM HaLL).
What is the role of hexokinase vs. glucokinase in glycolysis?
Hexokinase is found in most tissues, has a low Km (high affinity), and is inhibited by glucose-6-phosphate. Glucokinase is found in the liver and pancreatic beta cells, has a high Km (low affinity), and is induced by insulin.
What is the elaboration likelihood model in psychology?
The ELM proposes two routes of persuasion: the central route (careful, logical evaluation of arguments) and the peripheral route (reliance on superficial cues like attractiveness or authority).
What is the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation?
pH = pKa + log([A⁻]/[HA]). It relates the pH of a solution to the pKa and the ratio of conjugate base to weak acid concentrations.

MCAT Study Tips
- 1
Focus on high-yield topics first: amino acids, enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, and psychological theories appear frequently.
- 2
Create cards while reading AAMC practice passages — the questions mirror real exam difficulty.
- 3
Use image occlusion cards for anatomy diagrams and metabolic pathway maps.
- 4
Review cards in short daily sessions (30-45 minutes) rather than marathon cramming sessions.
- 5
Tag your cards by MCAT section so you can target weak areas during review.
