Bio

Hi! I'm an MD/PhD candidate at Yale University, training to become a physician-scientist with a research focus in immunology. I have an incredible passion for both teaching and mentorship, which began early in my career as an undergraduate at Cornell University, where I completed my Bachelor of Arts, with Honors, in Biological Sciences with a focus on Molecular and Cellular Biology.

Hi! I'm an MD/PhD candidate at Yale University, training to become a physician-scientist with a research focus in immunology. I have an incredible passion for both teaching and mentorship, which began early in my career as an undergraduate at Cornell University, where I completed my Bachelor of Arts, with Honors, in Biological Sciences with a focus on Molecular and Cellular Biology.

Over the last ten years, I've developed a toolkit to fundamentally change the way many students approach the MCAT. A reasoning test first and foremost, I've built on my foundational teaching skills to help students not only meet their goals, but often exceed them. Going through the premed process can be arduous and anxiety-provoking, and preparing for a high-stakes examination like the MCAT is no exception. I've honed in on skills fostered through years of working as a mentor and teacher with the CURB Peer Mentorship Program, teaching in local K-12 high schools in Ithaca through 21st Century & REACH and conducting in-person and online MCAT tutoring with both Yale and Cornell undergrads. Now, having adapted a course full of materials, strategies, and resources to guide my students, I'm excited to use Wyzant's platform to share my insights and strategies to the next generation of future physicians.

I scored in the 99th percentile in the MCAT, but what sets me apart is my motivation to adapt and invest in the needs of every one of my students. From personalized Anki decks for each AAMC content outline, to unique, integrative protocols to optimize students’ approaches to each MCAT section, I strive to go above and beyond as a resource for my students. The students I’ve worked with over the years, regardless of their starting point and timeline, have gone on to score in the 90th percentile and above on average. Be it acing your first attempt, trying to show improvement on a subsequent attempt, or even after your MCAT to garner application process advice, know that I’m prepared for, and committed to, helping you reach your goals.

I received a 99th percentile score on the MCAT, but what distinguishes me is the wide breadth of teaching and mentorship experience I've used over the past 5 years to help several dozen students reach their dream scores.

Alongside customized study-schedules and wellness coaching, I use my course's various unique resources and materials to help students demystify the "AAMC logic." Any student can score in the 90th+ percentile, and I'm here to show you how.

Amazing Tutor!!

Jaspreet was absolutely amazing as an MCAT tutor! He not only helped with all 4 sections in terms of content review and problem-solving strategies but also demonstrated a genuine care for his students' progress. For instance, he responded promptly to emails and always took time to follow up on practice exams. I really liked his CARS step-by-step strategies, they truly made such a daunting section seem more manageable. Additionally, he assisted in planning out a study schedule for the coming week that was tailored to my needs and weaknesses. Moreover, his incredible encouragement, and motivation significantly boosted my confidence for test day. I highly recommend Jaspreet to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and supportive tutor!

Smart, efficient, and helpful tutor

Jaspreet was so helping in my last few weeks of studying. After just a few sessions with him, my practice MCAT exams went up by 10 points. He taught me many strategies for experimental based questions and how to approach CARS in a more efficient and logical way. We always got right into review and didn't waste a single minute of our sessions. I would definitely recommend meeting with him if you feel like you have a lack of confidence or test strategies. Thanks for all your help, Jaspreet!

GENIUS TUTOR

I am a non-native English speaker, and CARS passages do not make sense to me. After just one lesson with Jaspreet, however, I felt CARS passages started to make sense. By applying the strategy he taught me, I saw significant improvement in accuracy immediately in practice passages (not timed practice). I am looking forward to the future tutoring session to learn more from him!

Jaspreet is the best

I cannot recommend Jaspreet highly enough! What sets him apart is his personalized approach—taking the time to understand my strengths, experiences, and goals, ensuring that my application truly reflects who I am. Beyond his expertise, Jaspreet is incredibly supportive and approachable, making what can be a stressful process feel manageable and even empowering. Thanks to his help, I feel more confident in my future as a medical student.

Very patient and knowledgeable on ALL subjects!

Jaspreet has been a wonderful tutor during my MCAT journey, and I attribute my score increase to him. He specifically helped me a lot on the CARS section of the MCAT, without neglecting any content/skills on the other 3 sections. He was also very organized and provided me a personalized plan according to my schedule, coming prepared for each meeting we had. Besides content for the MCAT, Jaspreet also increased my confidence for this exam which was game changing, and even helped me prepare my personal statement for my medical school application. I would 100% recommend Jaspreet to anyone studying for the MCAT and looking to apply to medical school!

Amazing! Accommodate all levels.

Jaspreet is very patient, efficient and student oriented. He takes the time to go through questions and make sure there’s a solid foundation rather than rushing through passages. He gears his lessons and plans around a structure and makes sure you are on task for the date you want to take the exam. I have no cons or concerns.
