I'm told that EAS is no longer covered on the MCAT. Does the syllabus thing from AAMC reflect this?

I'm guessing EAS wont be in the Princeton Review OCHEM book then?
 
I'm so confused. My TPR instructor said we should still learn this, because AAMC may be lying about what's on the MCAT.
 
As did my teacher; we went over EAS extensively as well...
And my teacher said not to worry about Modulus, Stress, Strain, but it's covered in the books, better not be on the MCAT.
Having to not memorize activators/deactivators would be so beneficial. I hope stress and strain isn't on there, either.

But those are almost like free questions, to me. Anything with non-bonding electron pairs usually deactivating. As simple as that. 👍

Shear, Compression, etc. IS covered.

I don't care if they are or not, if it's not on there, I don't want to waste precious time on it.
