Psychology MCAT Practice

Sensation, perception, learning, memory, cognition, emotion, motivation, and personality.

Psychology and Sociology together make up the Psychological, Social, and Biological Foundations section. Psychology alone covers sensation and perception, learning, memory, cognition, emotion, motivation, and personality — mostly through short vignettes rather than calculations, where the MCAT tests whether you can identify which named theory or effect a scenario illustrates. Precise recall of terminology matters more here than in most other sections, which also makes it a comparatively fast section to improve in with focused review.
