PDH, all the mechs, substrates, names, etc., and every regulation along the way, all free response.

Should mention that I went to a research university that is known to be a place harvard med. school searches for potential med-students, so as far as I know, ours was much harder than the average biochem exam

not to let this guy off the hook, but any realistic solution would be a collaborative result of many well-learned people. Expecting someone that is a part-time politician (no offense) to have a real solution to the middle east problem is a bit unfair.

Sounds like Biochem2.

That, Glycolysis, PDH, along with all of the regulations of every step along the way were just our first exam, all free response, of course.

I did a similar trip to korea. I'll agree with the OP, it doesn't work nearly as well as you'd think.

Usually, it ends up just making you seem like a religious nutjob.

yup. we had to know form memory FA oxidation (odd and even), gluceogenesis, glycolysis, PHD, krebs, along with ketone body chemistry, along with probably a dozen regulation schematics (PDH regulation, Glycolysis Crosstalk, Glycogen/Insulin reg, etc). that interactive map just triggered me. I need a safe space. The second half was taught by a different guy, and was significantly less material, mainly mitochondrial membrane hydrolysis stuff

this is the one we used, the first half of the class was pretty much the center verticle strip:
