1st try score of 519 (97th percentile) >130 in Critical Analysis and Reasoning and Biological and Biochemical Foundations of Living Systems Whether it’s reading graphs or paragraphs I can help you pick out what matters and study smarter not harder for the MCAT. I am happy to work with clients on test taking strategy, specific skill acquisition, or provide subject-level lecture and practice question style teaching if provided 48 hours notice on the interest topic. I am cognizant of differences in background and learning style preferences and ready to teach in whatever way works best for the client from the most fundamental to the most granular material.

Reach out to get started.

The MCAT is a challenging exam that requires students to come in with a strong foundation in various topics, ranging from biochemistry to physics to critical reading, while also excelling in the art of test strategy. As your tutor, I will work with you to better understand your areas of weakness on this broad exam and hone in on strategies to address them before your test date. I am comfortable with all content on the exam and can help on techniques to improve your test taking strategy, including timing and approaching various types of questions.

I scored a 130 on the CARS Section. As a writer, I'm especially passionate about supporting students with this section of the MCAT. I can help you weed through a slew of online resources for quality information and practice passages. I can help you create and adhere to a study plan necessary to achieve your desired score. I can help you review passages, questions, and answers line-by-line. I postponed my MCAT twice so I recognize the challenges associated with navigating the volume and complexity of information across all sections. I want to help you focus on perfecting your CARS section!

My journey to a 524 was complicated, with many twists and turns in the road as I learned the study strategy that worked best for me. After my own experience, I developed my tutoring strategy so that others might reach (or exceed!) their target score with a plan tailored to their learning preferences and habits. Navigating the many MCAT resources out there is complicated to say the least, and it is my hope that I can help you tailor your study strategy to maximize the impact of your efforts.
