MCAT Prep

I scored a 520 on the MCAT and am now an MD-PhD candidate at Weill Cornell. My background in neuroscience, health sciences, and research at the NIH and UCLA shapes how I teach: start with the core concept, connect it to the passage, and reason through the answer choices. I work with students on biology and biochemistry, chemistry and physics, and psychology and sociology. We will use your current performance, timeline, and schedule to build a focused study plan. In sessions, we can work through passages, unpack missed questions, and identify whether the main obstacle is a content gap, experimental reasoning, timing, or test-taking strategy. You will leave with specific priorities for practice and review, so you know what to work on between sessions and why.

I was able to independently study and apply directly to medical school without gap years. Happy to share advice about schedule creation, content, and practice question review. Let's connect and create a personalized plan to achieve your medical school dreams!

I received a 522 on the MCAT (>99th percentile) and am a fourth-year medical student at the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine. I also worked in research and healthcare consulting, and am the Co-Founder and CEO of an orthopedic device startup. I love to work with students to find out what subject area strengths and weaknesses they have, set up study plans to address these weaknesses, and also help them strategize ways to improve their scores on the MCAT. I also enjoy giving test taking strategies to ensure your MCAT score is everything you dreamed!

I took a dedicated 3-month study period with a study plan that has been refined over a decade of influence and expertise built in collaboration and input from colleagues who have made it into Ivy Leagues and top UC's.

Having coached underclassmen and family friends through MCAT cycles during summers and school years, I’m eager to help medical school applicants surmount one of the most tedious hurdles in the application process. Your score doesn’t have to be perfect, just good enough while you can still focus on being amazing in other aspects of life—and for me, I’m very happy with the way things worked out! No matter where you are, you just need the right strategy, and you’ve got this!

On the March 12th, 2022 MCAT, I scored 524/528, a 100th percentile score. I got 132/132 on Critical Analysis and Reasoning (CARS), 132/132 on Biology and Biochemistry (BB), 130/132 on CP (Chemistry and Physics), and 130/132 on Psychology and Sociology (PS). I studied for 6 months using Kaplan books, UWorld, third party full-length exams, and AAMC full-length exams. My AAMC FL average was 523/528. As a tutor for over eight years, I have extensive experience mentoring and teaching students of all ages and levels. Instead of making students memorize formulas and plug-and-chug to get answers, I encourage them to understand the principles and strategies behind each problem. My favorite teaching moment is helping students create their own examples and analogies to achieve that "eureka" moment when everything clicks.

I scored a 521 on the 2026 MCAT (98th percentile), including a perfect 132 in Chem/Phys and 131s in both Bio/Biochem and Psych/Soc. Having improved my own MCAT score from a 505 to a 521, I understand firsthand how to identify weaknesses, refine study strategies, and make significant score improvements. Beyond my own MCAT experience, I have over six years of one-on-one tutoring experience with students ranging from elementary school through college. I graduated from Biola University with a 3.997 GPA in Biological Sciences and served as a General Chemistry I and Organic Chemistry I teaching assistant. These experiences have taught me how to break down difficult concepts and adapt my teaching to each student's learning style. My approach to MCAT coaching combines targeted content review with passage-based practice, test-taking strategy, and careful review of missed questions. Rather than using the same study plan for every student, I help students identify their individual weaknesses and build an efficient, personalized approach to improving their score.

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!

Welcome to my profile! As a current resident physician and recent graduate of Washington University in St. Louis School of Medicine, I bring a wealth of firsthand medical knowledge to my MCAT coaching. My interdisciplinary experiences, including an undergraduate degree in public policy and post-grad research experience in oncology clinical trials, give me a broad perspective on the medical school admissions landscape, helping me work with students from various backgrounds. Whether you're aiming to boost your score or need guidance on the entire application process, I'm here to help you succeed. Let's connect and make a plan!

Hello! My name is Eshwar, and I’ve taken the MCAT twice under very different circumstances, scoring a 522 in 2020 and a 520 four years later. Performing at an elite level twice taught me that a strong MCAT score isn’t about having one great test day—it comes from building a method that holds up over time. As I prepare to reapply to medical school, I want to help my fellow aspiring physicians develop that approach and showcase their academic potential. My background includes research at the NIH Vaccine Research Center and AstraZeneca, along with three years of hands-on clinical experience as a Lead Ophthalmic Technician. These experiences have given me a strong scientific foundation that extends beyond textbook familiarity and helps me explain difficult concepts in a practical, intuitive way. As your tutor, I’ll take a structured, personalized approach: focused content review where you need it most, targeted QBank practice, and meticulous debriefs of Full-Length Practice Exams to identify what is limiting your score (content gap, reasoning strategy, pacing, or test-day execution). I’ll keep you working in your Optimal Challenge Zone: difficult enough to drive improvement without wasting time on material you've already mastered. Ultimately, on test day, you'll trust your preparation and approach so you can perform at your best.
