Seems like most of these bio terms are written in Greek. Should I study basic Greek to prepare for the mcat?
Was it not part of the basic pre-med sequence at your school...? I know all the adcoms I've spoken with want to see that you've taken at least a year of Greek, preferably two. I'm not sure how you would even attempt the MCAT without that under your belt, to be honest...

Yes, and while you're at it, you might as well study quantum mechanics (for physics section), number theory (math is required!!)... etc
Numbers are arabic, so we should learn Arabic, too.
OH GOD. How am I going to pass the mcat with only...english!!
I hear the verbal section is in Japanese.
actually what they do is they take the passages as they are in english, then they use google translate to translate the passage from english to french to spanish to to japanese then back to english and put it on the exam. I know this because I've tried this and the sentence that I get is more coherent than what they present on the exam
edit: also I hear abstract algebra helps on the math for the PS
