    Synthetic or Regular Oil

    I have a simple question. How do you tell if an oil is Hydrocracked Group III, or a true synthetic such as a Group IV / Group V ? Is it as simple as looking for the word "hydrocracked"? Or, is there something more? Any other words used to describe the differences? Is the information on the bottle?
