Lauren’s MCAT Qualifications
Hey! With a rich academic background from Harvard University and the University of Oxford, I bring a unique perspective to MCAT preparation. As a US Rhodes Scholar and a researcher in infectious diseases, I understand the rigorous demands of medical education and the importance of a strong foundation in the sciences. My experience as a guest epidemiology lecturer in Africa and director of various education initiatives globally has equipped me with the skills to effectively communicate complex concepts, making them accessible and engaging. I am passionate about helping aspiring medical students excel in their MCATs and achieve their dreams of entering top medical schools. Let's work together to create a personalized study plan that maximizes your strengths and addresses your challenges. Excited to work with you!
