The curriculum focuses on understanding MCAT structure, mastering section timing and question types, and applying tailored test-taking strategies such as POWER, reading and note-taking techniques, distractor recognition, and pacing. It also covers review across biology, physics, chemistry, psychology, biochemistry, and sociology, plus practice study habits and a tentative session schedule with pre-class homework.","Preparing for the MCAT: Course Syllabus  \nWinter 2025  \nInstructors  \n• Rowland Miller, Ph.

But this last stretch of preparation can be rocky, and we are glad you’re not going it alone. Through our own studies of the exam, subject content, study resources, learning methods, and testing strategies, we are equipped to smooth out the path to test day and guide you along the way. Specifically, our preparation course is designed to help you:  \n• Understand MCAT structure and design  \no foundational concepts, topics, and skills  \no test sections and timing  \no question types  \no scoring system  \n• Develop test-taking strategies tailored to the particular challenges of the MCAT  \no step-by-step POWER approach  \no reading, highlighting, and note-taking techniques  \no recognition of attractive distractors  \no pacing techniques  \no confident mindset  \n• Review MCAT concepts  \no biology o physics  \no chemistry o psychology  \no biochemistry o sociology  \n• Identify strengths and priorities for further preparation  \no concept and topic knowledge  \no scientific inquiry and reasoning skills  \no critical analysis and reasoning skills  \no testing approach  \n• Practice study techniques, habits, and attitudes that foster MCAT success  \nSchedule (tentative)  \n\n| Date & Time | Topics\u003Cbr>Foundational Concepts | Homework\u003Cbr>Complete Before Class |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Jan 18\u003Cbr>9-noon | MCAT Strategies; Biology\u003Cbr>(FC 1B & 1C) | [1.
