How does a competitive inhibitor change enzyme kinetics?
1
It binds the active site, competing with substrate
2
Adding more substrate can outcompete it
3
Max rate is still reachable, but needs more substrate
Km increases, Vmax unchanged

MY MCAT FRAMEWORK
Three phases to a higher B/B score.
Content first, then practice, then strategies built around you. Every phase builds on the one before it.
Phase 1
Learn the content
We build a real understanding of every high-yield B/B topic, so you’re reasoning through questions instead of memorizing facts.
Clear explanations of each topic
Focus on what the MCAT tests most
Fix gaps from undergrad courses
Phase 2
Practise and problem-solve
Passage-based practice builds the skills the MCAT actually tests: reading data, connecting concepts and ruling out wrong answers.
MCAT-style passages and discretes
Step-by-step reasoning on every question
Timing that builds over time
Phase 3
Strategies and full-length review
After each full-length, we go through what you missed: why the right answer is right and how to get that type right next time.
Question-by-question FL review
What worked for me, adapted to you
A personal plan to test day
AFTER EVERY FULL-LENGTH
Every missed question has a reason.
We sort each question you missed or guessed on, then fix the real cause. That’s how scores keep climbing between practice tests.
Content gap
We reteach the topic and add it to your review list.
Reasoning error
We redo the question together and fix the approach.
Timing or misreading
We build a passage strategy that works for you.
