You can memorize every formula in the Kaplan book and STILL miss those sneaky MCAT acid–base questions. Let’s fix that. In this episode of the Jack Westin MCAT Podcast, Mike & Molly walk you from first-semester chem definitions all the way to high-yield clinical tie-ins—so you understand (not just memorize) acids and bases.
🔑 What you’ll master
- Choosing the right definition (Arrhenius, Brønsted, or Lewis) in seconds
- Predicting acid/base strength from conjugate stability
- Fast mental math with Ka, pKa, and pH (goodbye endless logs)
- Buffer problems—identifying the true conjugate pair and pH shifts under stress
- Clinically framed MCAT scenarios that lock the concepts in memory
