For those whom have already taken the PCAT

On stoichiometry problems, will they provide you with the atomic weights of the atoms or will the have to be memorized?

i read in another post that we should know the MW of the "common" elements, although I would think they give you the MW's for anything they give you...

Its common MW... like C, O, H...

Anything uncommon they usually give, but you're expected to know C, N, O, H and their atomic weights and numbers.

I just assumed they would provide all MW's since the MCAT does...
But it makes sense for Pharm's to know common MW's moreso than Meds, I guess.

Plus you learn those common elements through repetition in GenChem
