Members don't see this ad.
 
:laugh: Nope. With mental math being a huge component of the test, most people round very generously.

someone told one of the prep books use sig figs in the first chapter, I always wondered why.

This right here. SigFigs might not exactly be needed on the MCAT, but it is a pretty important concept to understand overall.

But yes, round like mad on the MCAT.
 
Dude if you don't know basic significant figures you should not be taking the mcat lol
