Cambridge Coaching MCAT Webinar: Fat Oxidation and Synthesis

  It's a weekly live webinar about a high yield MCAT topic. It's short, sweet, and packed with valuable insight into both the topic at hand and how it's tested on the MCAT. While we are in the process of developing these materials, we are offering the webinar for free. Consider yourself a pilot student for a future Cambridge Coaching MCAT course, or textbook, or self-study platform (only the future can tell). All we ask in exchange is that you keep coming, participate in Q & A, share your feedback, and let friends know about this resource. This webinar's topic will be Fat Oxidation and Synthesis, and will take place Friday September 11 at 1pm EST. 

Register for this week's webinar here.
