How to prepare Biology for MDCAT
- Read the notes for a unit, then answer its MCQs the same day. Facts stick better when you have to recall them.
- Learn tables as tables: hormones and their glands, vitamins and their deficiency diseases, and pathogens and the diseases they cause.
- Use the PMDC learning outcomes as a checklist. If you can do what an outcome asks, you have covered that topic.
Next: see how this subject fits the MDCAT paper pattern, then follow the 12-week study plan.
These MCQs are written for practice in the MDCAT style. They are not copied from an official paper. For real papers, see our guide to MDCAT past papers.
