My second term of Gen Physics Lab this summer that covers the following:

Reflection, refraction & dispersion
Telescopes and Microscopes
Interference and Diffraction
Basic electrical circuits
Ohm's Law
Electrolysis
Equipotential Lines
Magnetic Forces
RC & LR circuits- Time constants
RC& LR Circuits- Frequency Response
RLC Circuit
the Bohr Atom

😱



How much of this can I expect on the MCAT?
 
attached is the topics of MCAT PS section, hope this helps. my very first reply on SDN=)

You should know all of that except maybe the RC & LR circuits- Time constants and RC& LR Circuits- Frequency Response

They could show up, but I would expect equations to be given or at least the needed info to be in the passage
 
I also have the option to take this physics lab for the second term that covers the following: basic experiments in physics involving the concepts of force and motion, matter and energy, electricity and magnetism, and the atom...


Would this be enough along with what I have already taken (experiments in mechanics, oscillatory motion, and heat) for the topics on the MCAT?

Thanks!! I look forward to any responses.
