College Counseling

I was accepted into every UC university I applied to, including UC Berkeley and UCLA. Ultimately, I chose to attend UCLA (go Bruins!) and have extensively coached teens in my Indian community on best practices for gaining admission to top schools. Now that I have graduated from UCLA with a 4.00 GPA, I have gained admission to top medical school programs. In addition, I coach others on the admissions process for med school on my YouTube channel. I look at students holistically and encourage them to find their own path and personhood in this process, but I am also honest about chances and next steps. I hope to be a good fit and great mentor to you!

I can also offer scheduling templates I have created as well as refer you to a goldmine of underrated free MCAT resources that most premed students don't know about.

I love writing on a range of topics, as shown by the selection of courses above, and I work with students to make sure their writing comes across as clearly and concisely as possible. In addition, I have helped my premed friends revise their personal statements for medical school applications. I bring care, patience, and fun into the writing process, and I hope to work with you soon!

patient and diligent!!

Online chemistry is a huge challenge and I’m so glad I have Sohini’s guidance. I was worried she wouldn’t know what to do with me because I have zero basic chemistry knowledge and am taking on an advanced class. Sohini truly took the reigns on our lesson by preparing her own practice problems for me, pulling up charts/guides from the internet, writing out notes for me, checking in, etc. she was incredibly patient with me and helped me work through my first assignment and not only finishing it, but now I actually understand the material so far. I feel so relieved already that I have Sohini’s guidance with Chem! She’s amazing!

remarkably fluent and invested!

Sohini is a superb tutor. Her knowledge of the material is deep and nuanced. She’s invested - the presentation of the work (her notes) is neat, organized and serve as additional help in methods of studying. She seems to genuinely care to help in establishing uncompromising skills.

Very effective tutor!

Sohini is a great tutor! She is always ready to help, easy to book lessons, reply my emails very quick. she came to the class very well prepared and saved my time and money. With her help, my son got his Chemistry lab homework very well done right before the due time. Thank you very much Sohini! ! I strongly recommend Sohini to be your tutor!!

Knowledgeable and Patient

Will 10/10 book her again. She definitely knows what she’s talking about when it comes to chemistry. I’m taking chemistry 2 right now and after only an hour I feel 10x more confident about the subjects I’m currently covering in the class.

great tutor!

Sohini was really sweet, knowledgeable & patient. She breaks down things really well which is something that I needed for chemistry. One aspect that I loved about our tutoring session is that she took the time to make sure I understood and If I didn’t understand something she would try to show me a different perspective. I would recommend her to anyone!!

Excellent

Sohini is tutoring my 9 year old son! She has her hands full. She is very patient with him and definitely knows what she is doing. I highly recommend her. I didn’t know about this website at first, but I am sure glad I tried it out. It has been a life saver. If we ever have to go back to remote learning I will be using her for every subject!
