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!

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 specialize in developing comprehensive study plans and reviewing exam content to ensure my students are fully prepared for all sections of the MCAT. I am also a former MD Admissions Reviewer and Pre-Health Advisor, and I've helped numerous students excel in their exams and secure spots at top medical schools.
