Welcome back to the Jack Westin MCAT Podcast – CARS Reading Skills Workshop edition! In this episode, your hosts Jack and Molly tackle a passage that’s deceptively simple yet rich in critical reasoning practice: “Turns”
🎨 While the topic may sound like a snooze, this passage is the perfect test of your ability to stay focused on something totally unfamiliar—a challenge many MCAT students struggle with in the CARS section.
📚 Here’s what you’ll get out of this episode:
- Why “Turns” is one of our favorite practice passages
- How to navigate unfamiliar or niche topics without zoning out
- What makes this passage surprisingly fun and mentally engaging
- Specific strategies to apply during your next CARS practice session
- How to think like the test-maker and stay one step ahead
Whether you're struggling with attention, pacing, or reasoning through strange subjects, this workshop will show you how to read smarter—not harder.
