I've started making a list of ways the MCAT attempts to obscure variables in and concepts in their questions.
These are the ones I've fallen for in the past. Please add yours! I will add them to my list as they come.

I've added quite a few more. The list is almost double in size. Hopefully you find some of these useful. Please let me know if you catch any mistakes!

Nice! I've occasionally gotten tricked by the "how much should be added/increased by/etc" instead of the total amount. A common trap but sometimes it can worded or implied subtly or overlooked. Similar to gauge pressure problems.
