is the physical sciences mostly physics with some chemistry?

and is the biological sciences most biology with some organic?

Physical Sciences = Chemistry + Physics
Biological Sciences = Organic Chemistry + Biology

The Ratio of Physics and Chemistry often vary. The ratio of biology vs. organic chemistry is often quite high, with these few years exceptionally high, leaning on biology much more than organic chemistry.

If you want to know more, go to www.aamc.org, and check these two links out - they'll tell you everything about the MCATs on SDN

Within Physical Sciences, it is usually 50:50 GenChem:phys ratio but that does vary sometimes.

In Biological Sciences, the Bio:Orgo ratio is 80:20 or 75:25 but again may vary.
