Hey guys,
Do you think the PCAT will have questions dealing with Nuclear Chemistry (likely the last chapter before the Ochem section in review books)? I never went over this in school, so I am not sure if anything about it will be in the PCAt.

Also, what kind of calculations questions do you expect?

I am assuming that we have to know the periodic table really well. 😉 good luck!
 
There have been nuclear questions in the past. Just know what alpha, beta, etc. particles represent.

For the periodic table, just know the key elements (+1/+2 metals, halogens, diatomics) and concepts like electronegativity.
