Why build your own MCAT practice tests from class material

Published question banks are useful, but they cannot show which topics your course lectures and readings emphasized. Your own notes can become an MCAT practice test that targets those gaps, with an explanation under every answer.

  • Questions drawn from the lectures and readings you already have
  • Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer formats
  • Explanations that show the reasoning behind each answer
  • Short sets for daily review and longer sets before an exam
Example MCAT biology and chemistry practice questions
Which hormone raises blood glucose by stimulating glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis in the liver?Glucagon. It is secreted by pancreatic alpha cells when blood glucose falls, prompting the liver to release glucose.
Which enzyme catalyzes the first step of the citric acid cycle?Citrate synthase. It joins acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate to form citrate, which starts the cycle.
True or false: Km is the substrate concentration at which an enzyme reaction runs at half its maximum velocity.True. Under Michaelis-Menten kinetics, Km equals the substrate concentration at which the velocity is Vmax divided by two.
What does ADH do in the collecting duct of the kidney?ADH inserts aquaporin-2 channels, increasing water reabsorption and producing more concentrated urine.
At constant temperature, gas volume is inversely proportional to pressure. Which gas law describes this?Boyle's law. For a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature, P1V1 equals P2V2.

Built from your notes

Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages, and the questions come from your own course material.

Explanations for every answer

Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions each include an explanation, so you learn why an answer is right or wrong.

Spaced repetition for review

Flashcards built from the same material use spaced repetition, so topics you struggle with come back on a schedule.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, slides, a DOCX file, plain notes, or a photo of a textbook page.

Choose question types

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions for your practice set.

Practice and review

Answer the questions, read each explanation, then retake the ones you missed.

Students balancing MCAT prep with coursework often need short, focused sets more than a full-length exam. A 20-question quiz built from this week's biochemistry slides fits into a busy schedule better than a long session on unrelated material.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should an MCAT practice test have?

A set of 20 to 40 questions works well for one sitting, and shorter sets suit daily review. Mix topics from each science area so you are not only practicing what you studied most recently.

How should I review a practice test for the MCAT?

Read the explanation for every question, including the ones you answered correctly, and note why each wrong option is wrong. Retake the missed questions a few days later to check that the material has stuck.

Can I export my practice test to PDF or DOCX?

PDF and DOCX export are part of the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on Pro. The Free plan includes 3 generations per month with studying in the browser.

Does DeckOwl include official AAMC practice exams?

No. DeckOwl creates questions from the material you upload, such as your notes, slides or PDFs, so it does not provide official AAMC exam content.
