  • Enzyme Kinetics for the MCAT: Km, Vmax, and Competitive Inhibition Explained

    Enzyme Kinetics for the MCAT: Km, Vmax, and Competitive Inhibition Explained
    Oct 18 2026
    Enzyme kinetics is one of the most important biochemistry concepts tested on the MCAT. In this episode of MCAT in the Car, we explain how enzymes accelerate chemical reactions, what Km and Vmax tell us about enzyme activity, and how competitive and noncompetitive inhibitors change reaction rates. You’ll also learn how to recognize common MCAT questions about enzyme inhibition without getting lost in complicated equations.

  • Glycolysis for the MCAT: ATP, NADH, and the Three Enzymes You Must Know

    Glycolysis for the MCAT: ATP, NADH, and the Three Enzymes You Must Know
    Oct 13 2026
    Glycolysis is one of the most important metabolic pathways tested on the MCAT, and understanding it is essential for mastering cellular energy production. In this episode, we break down how glucose is converted into pyruvate, why ATP is both consumed and produced, and how NADH contributes to cellular metabolism. You’ll learn the three key regulatory enzymes, the net ATP yield, and the differences between aerobic and anaerobic conditions. We also explore common MCAT exam traps involving enzyme regulation, energy calculations, and metabolic pathways, helping you recognize the concepts that frequently appear in passage-based questions.

  • Stoichiometry Made Simple: Moles, Limiting Reactants, and Chemical Reactions

    Stoichiometry Made Simple: Moles, Limiting Reactants, and Chemical Reactions
    Oct 11 2026
    One of the most intimidating aspects of MCAT chemistry is stoichiometry. Students see chemical equations, unfamiliar numbers, and multiple conversion steps, and suddenly a relatively simple problem feels overwhelming. But stoichiometry is really about understanding proportions. Once you understand the relationships between substances in a chemical reaction, the calculations become much more manageable.
