temperature scales

I am making an active effort to memorize equations considering the fact that the mcat passages might not give them away if the answer is easily obtained through those equations...

However, my question is...should I memorize the formulas for Farenheit, Celc., and Kelvin????

not farenheit, they'll give it to you shud they EVER ask that

but yes Celc <-> Kel is MAssively important

Tk = Tcelc. + 273

Tcelc = Tk - 273

that's it

remember a Change of 5 degrees Celsius = a change of 5 Kelvin (the change for one is the same for the other)

That said, make sure you do EVERYTHING in Kelvin! Unless of course you are just doing the change in temp, and then it doesn't matter.
