Have you taken university physics courses? I would imagine they are required at every medical school. Everything you need to know for the MCAT would be taught there.I know very, very, very little physics...
I think what I should do (based on other posts here) is have an MCAT specific review book and also a general physics textbook, so I can reference it if I'm confused. But if there's an MCAT review book that explains well enough then that's even better. ANY advice would be appreciated.
If it matters, I'm Canadian.

I've been doing a mixture of Khan Academy and my Kaplan physics book.
I would say find MCAT physical science section books and churn out questions. I know I picked one up that had MPC and passage based stuff. Kill those MPC questions and look up solutions.
I really think physics is similar to calc where doing a tremendous amount of problems and learning their tricks is the way to go.
Beyond that, Wiki premed helped me out in certain areas.

Do all your homework, and understand deeply every mathematical and logical step you take. Go to office hours if you are confused at all. And dont worry about twisting your brain on a problem , it helps with problem solving. If you are taking calc based physics, uniform/non-uniform will tip you off on whether or not to pull out your calculus tools.
khan academy is lacking in the physics department, their videos are very simple, definitely geared toward highschool students.
