Anyone want to take a stab at it! lol

The flu.

The flu.

Totally the flu. They love things dealing with antibiotic resistance and crazy bacteria.

Crazy bacteria - Things with really long names and a million suffixes,prefixes regarding the bacteria.

diabetes; kidney problems;

Anything you would cover in physiology such as diabetes, hypertension/cadiovascular failure, edemas, infections.

Myasthenia gravis

why? is this to attempt to study to improve your MCAT score?

If it is, it probably is the wrong approach. The physiology is very basic for the MCAT, super basic. You just need to know how everything works.

As for knowing diseases, that would be like asking "what are the most common passage topics in VR?" Well, if you try to find specific topics you're focusing on the wrong thing.

The flu? I haven't seen the flu on any of 10 FLs. Lots of bacteria induced diseases though.

Just Wondering MCATGUY! Whats it to you? I have a general synopsis, just wanted to know what other people thought about it. No this is not a attempt to improve my MCAT score. Its just one of those no brainer questions that you want to know what other people think. People post in the forums all the time no brainer questions that have been asked and answered over and over.

I didn't accuse you of doing it. I asked why and then said that "if it is then it's not a good approach."

Then I posted my thought on it.

What is it to me? lol. not much. I wasn't trying to be serious, just making sure it wasn't an attempt to improve the MCAT.
