no relativity?

Well after finishing the physics section of the kaplan mcat prep course and reading all 12 chapters in the review book I noticed that it never mentions relativity. Is this absent on the mcat?

I checked the list of PS topics from the AAMC website:
http://www.aamc.org/students/mcat/preparing/pstopics.pdf

I could not find relativity, so I assume it is not tested and that's why it was not included in the Kaplan materials. (Anyone using EK/TPR/TBR is it discussed in those?)

Hopefully some past MCAT-takers can confirm this, or we can get some other opinions?

NO RELATIVITY! I was so happy to find this out when I was first studying 🙂

Score!!!! Imagine how much more complicated they could make PS if they included relativity and its related equations.
