Aaron I.

ACT English

Hi. I am a recent graduate of the University of Miami where I completed a major in classics. This classical background has honed the reading and grammar skills essential for tackling the ACT English section. I believe the best ways to prepare for this section are to understand fundamental linguistic rules and recognize how these rules will be tested. I would be happy to work through practice passages with you or help in any other way you see fit. Best of luck!

ACT Reading

Hi! I received a perfect 36 on the ACT reading section. I am also a recent graduate of the University of Miami where I completed a major in classics. I have some unique ways of tackling this section that I believe will benefit you greatly. I am happy to work through practice exams or assist in any other way you see fit. Best of luck!

Biochemistry

Hi! I am a recent graduate of the University of Miami where I majored in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Biology, and Classics. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a 3.96 GPA. I have three semesters of experience as a teaching assistant for general biology I/II and five semesters of experience as a teaching assistant for organic chemistry II. I am also a 97th-percentile MCAT scorer. I have received grades of A or A+ in relevant coursework at introductory (100), intermediate (200-300), and advanced levels (400-500). Courses completed include general biology I/II (100L), cell and molecular biology (200L), genetics (200L), molecular genetics (500L), botany (200L), ecology (300L), evolutionary biology (300L), developmental biology (400L), biochemistry (400L), biochemistry readings (400L), protein biochemistry (500L), nanomedicine (500L), biomedical case studies (500L), scanning electron microscopy (300L), and organic chemistry I/II.

Ecology

Hi! My name is Aaron and I am a recent graduate with a BS in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Biology, and Classics. I have received A+ grades in relevant courses such as (BIL 160) Evolution and Biodiversity, (BIL 223) Botany, (BIL 320) Evolutionary Biology, and (BIL 330) Ecology. I also received a 5 in AP Environmental Science while in high school. Moreover, I have competed in five Envirothon competitions, winning first-place prizes in both regional and statewide competitions. I look forward to working with you and best of luck with your studies!

MCAT

I received a 520 on the MCAT exam. My specific score breakdown was C/P [130], CARS [129], B/B [130], and P/S [131]. I believe the best way to prepare for the MCAT exam is by first understanding the content to the best of your ability. Once confident in your understanding, you should be able to organize all of your knowledge for easy recall. At this time, I would recommend starting with practice passages, questions, and full-length exams. I am happy to help anyone at any skill level with content review, organizational tips/ hierarchical learning, or practice questions/passages/exams. Whatever you need just let me know. Best of luck!

Organic Chemistry

Hi, I hope you are doing well. My name is Aaron and I am a recent graduate with a BS in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. I received a perfect score in Organic Chemistry II and a near-perfect score in Organic Chemistry I. I served as a teaching assistant for Organic Chemistry II for five semesters. I am happy to help with teaching/reviewing content, exam prep, homework help, or whatever can be of use to you. Thanks!
