The USMLEs love to test these in familiar and unfamiliar situations that occasionally step out of classic norms. I highlight a few of these scenarios and permutations so you’re well versed and ready to tackle whatever presents on your exam (especially arrows and what certain strange results mean).

The final fact I wanted to mention but forgot is that anion gap increases with age. There are no attached slides.
