How to use a practice test for MCAT chemistry

DeckOwl does not include a ready-made MCAT chemistry question bank, so you will not find a fixed set of MCAT chemistry practice tests here. What it does is turn the chemistry you are studying into a test. Upload your lecture slides or review PDFs, and get multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions with explanations. Because the questions come from your own material, the test covers the topics you have actually been working through.

  • Upload your own general chemistry or organic chemistry notes as PDF, DOCX or PPTX
  • Choose multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer formats
  • Read an explanation after every answer, whether you were right or wrong
  • Study in the browser on the free plan; exports require Plus or Pro
Example MCAT general chemistry practice questions
Why does adding a small amount of strong acid to a buffer of acetic acid and sodium acetate change the pH only slightly?The added H+ reacts with acetate to form acetic acid, so the ratio of conjugate base to acid changes very little.
How does raising the temperature affect the rate of most reactions?The rate increases because more molecular collisions have enough energy to exceed the activation energy.
Is a process spontaneous at constant temperature and pressure when delta G is negative?Yes, because free energy decreases in a spontaneous process at constant temperature and pressure.
Which has the higher boiling point, ethanol or dimethyl ether?Ethanol, because its O-H groups form hydrogen bonds, while dimethyl ether has only dipole-dipole and dispersion forces.
Does adding a catalyst shift the position of an equilibrium?No, a catalyst speeds up the forward and reverse reactions equally, so the equilibrium position and constant stay the same.

Multiple-choice, true/false and short answer

Pick the question format that fits the topic. Each item comes with an explanation of the correct answer.

Built from your own material

Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain-text notes or photos of pages. The questions come from what you actually studied.

Explanations for every answer

Wrong answers get a reason, so you learn the chemistry behind the miss instead of memorizing the key.

How it works

Upload your chemistry material

Add a PDF, slide deck, DOCX file or photos of printed textbook pages.

Choose question types

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or short answer, then generate the set.

Take the test and review

Answer in the browser, read each explanation, and retest the questions you missed.

Practice tests work best when you check each answer against its explanation and then return to the questions you missed. Retesting the same topics over several sessions helps the material stick, and a short test on one unit can show whether you are ready to move on to the next.

Frequently asked questions

How should I study general chemistry for the MCAT?

Start with the topics you find hardest, such as acid-base equilibria or thermodynamics, and work through each one until you can explain the reasoning. Mix in short sets from several units so you practice recalling material out of order, as the exam requires.

How many practice questions should I do per chemistry topic?

Do enough that you can explain why each answer is right, then return to the ones you missed a day or two later. The number matters less than whether your errors shrink on the second pass.

Can I export my MCAT chemistry practice test?

Studying in the browser is free with 3 generations per month. PDF and DOCX export and unlimited generations are included in Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are included in Pro.

Do I need a credit card to try DeckOwl?

No, you can start without a credit card. Students also get 40% off with a school email.
