Equation Sheets You’ll Actually Use!
Ah, physics! You know this: What goes up must come down. But hopefully not your MCAT score! But then there’s always chemistry and mixing those different colored liquids together. Fun, right? Turns out, it’s a bit harder than that. And by a bit, we mean a lot!
Whether it’s chemistry or physics that is your most anxiety-inducing subject, (hey, they’re both loaded with math, equations, and formulas!), neither has leeway for mistakes. If you’re going to crush the MCAT, you’re going to have to know all the equations and formulas like you know your parents’ phone number!
Sure you can dive into textbooks to learn them all, but they’re buried between page after page of text. And you’ll need multiple chemistry and physics textbooks to find them all.
Not anymore! Download our FREE Equation Sheets and get all of your chemistry equations AND physics formulas in one place, all in an easy-to-read format!
These Equation Sheets contain every equation formula you’ll need to master Chemical and Physical Foundations of Biological Systems Section of the MCAT, including:
- Equilibrium, Gibbs free energy, reaction rates, pH calculations, and more
- Definitions of variables and terms to make comprehension easy
- Reminders of the different constants you’ll use
- The highest yield physics formulas and content
- The values of physics constants
- Definitions of variables and terms to make comprehension easy
- The complete equation set for kinematics, fluid dynamics, soundwaves, and more!

Part 1: Introduction
For many premeds, physics (and organic chemistry) was one of the more difficult classes they had to take in college. From long equations to complex math problems to a sea of formulas, college physics can make even the best student waver.
Fortunately, MCAT physics relies less on your math skills and more on your critical reasoning skills. On the MCAT, you’re not allowed to use a calculator, so physics problems written by the test-makers at the American Association of Medical Colleges (AAMC) must be solvable using simple math, estimations, or no math at all. Not to fear—for additional help with using equations, be sure to refer to our guide on MCAT math.
As such, it is very important for premeds studying for the MCAT to build time for learning the important physics equations into their study schedules. Now, what is an important physics equation? An important physics equation is an equation that we’ve either seen on 1) AAMC practice materials from the MCAT Official Prep Hub or 2) the AAMC’s list of content covered on the MCAT.
Here, we’ll show you those important equations that you should know for any MCAT physics questions you get. By knowing these equations (like you know functional groups or amino acids), you’ll put yourself in the best position to score well on the MCAT and increase your odds of receiving that acceptance letter from the medical school of your dreams!
