Why generate your own MCAT practice test

Preparing for the MCAT means drilling content across biological and physical sciences, psychology and sociology, so an MCAT practice test should cover the subjects you have already studied. A test built from your own lecture slides and review notes shows you exactly which topics you have covered and where your recall is weak.

Questions come from the subjects in your own review materials, not a generic question bank.
Verify each generated question against your source and the official MCAT content outlines.
Plus costs $39/year or $7.99/month and includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export.
Students get 40% off with a school email, and no credit card is needed to start.

Example MCAT practice questions with answers

Where in the cell does oxidative phosphorylation primarily occur?The inner mitochondrial membrane, because the electron transport chain and ATP synthase are located there.

What type of bond links adjacent amino acids in a protein?A peptide bond, an amide linkage formed by a condensation reaction that releases water.

True or false: adding a catalyst shifts the position of a chemical equilibrium toward products.False. A catalyst speeds up the forward and reverse reactions equally, so the equilibrium position does not change.

Which brain structure is the main regulator of circadian rhythm?The suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus, which receives light signals from the retina.

In the citric acid cycle, what molecule is formed when acetyl-CoA combines with oxaloacetate?Citrate, formed by citrate synthase, which starts the cycle by joining a two-carbon unit to a four-carbon molecule.

Questions from your own material

Upload PDFs, slides, DOCX files, plain notes or photos of pages and get multiple-choice, true/false or short answer questions.

An explanation for every answer

Each question comes with an explanation, so a missed answer shows you which concept to review next.

Study in the browser

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study. PDF and DOCX exports are part of Plus.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, slide deck, DOCX file, notes or a photo of a page from your review.

Choose question types

Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer, depending on how you want to practice.

Take the quiz and review

Work through the questions and read the explanation for every answer you miss.

Generating questions from your own material works best in short sets from one content area rather than one long mixed test, because each set points to a specific topic to review. Paste in a chapter or upload a slide deck, choose multiple choice or true/false, and work through the explanations for each miss.

Note that AMCAS is the application service for medical school, while the MCAT is the exam itself. This page covers exam practice. Check every generated question against your source and the official MCAT content outlines before you rely on it.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should I include in an MCAT practice set?

There is no required length. Short sets from one content area are more useful than a long mixed test because each set shows exactly which topic needs review.

Is AMCAS the same thing as the MCAT?

No. The MCAT is the exam, while AMCAS is the American Medical College Application Service used to submit medical school applications. This page is about practicing for the exam.

Can I export my practice test?

Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV are part of the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month. The free plan lets you study in the browser with 3 generations per month.
