How to prepare MDCAT Physics.
- Make a one-page formula sheet for each unit and revise it daily; most Physics MCQs need one formula used correctly.
- Learn proportionality: if a quantity is squared (v², A², V²/R), doubling it makes four times. MDCAT tests this again and again.
- Check units and options last. Two options often share the number but differ in unit (m/s and m/s²).
- Without a calculator, choose easy values: g = 9.8 or 10, whichever the options need, and simplify fractions before multiplying.
- If you are also sitting NUMS, give Physics extra time: it has 40 Physics MCQs out of 150.
Facts we checked
- Physics: 36 of 180 MDCAT MCQs; 16 units and 100 learning outcomes. PM&DC uniform MDCAT curriculum

My experience with Eprepare was exceptional, and im more than satisfied. Eprepare helped me immensely in understanding concepts more clearly, especially Physics, which was my weakest subject. The Bookline MCQs were invaluable in strengthening my concepts and making sure I understood everything I needed to know. All the other features, such as the Koshash Series, Quick Revision MCQs, My Wrong MCQs, and many more, were incredibly useful for effective preparation. On top of that, there are past-year papers, lecture videos, notes, FLPs, and so much more. It genuinely feels like a treasure trove for every MDCAT student, where you can find practically EVERYTHING you need for preparation, all in one place.10/10 highly recommended to all future MDCAT aspirants! ❤️
