ACT MATH/SCIENCE
Hello!
My name is Preethi, and I have a Bachelor’s degree in Neuroscience from Johns Hopkins. I tutored ACT math/science for 8 years and university biology courses for 4 years. I enjoy helping high school students gain the skills and confidence for test day.
I tutored one-on-one in ACT math and science through Kaplan for 8 years. My style is to clarify fundamental concepts, focusing on test-taking strategies (time management, easy problem-solving approaches, calculator tips, and process of elimination). My strategy involves reviewing practice problems, timed sections as homework, and providing written feedback after lessons. With my help, students have improved their scores by 7-8 points and approach test day with confidence.
MEDICAL SCHOOL APPLICATIONS
Currently, I am a 4th-year med student at UChicago. I was also accepted to the University of Michigan, NYU, Boston University, Northwestern, and Johns Hopkins. As a med student interviewer, I have reviewed applications and interviewed hundreds of applicants. Knowing what med schools look for, I hope to help you with any of the following: essay editing, MCAT study planning, and interview prep.
My approach is a personalized one that starts with understanding your goals for the cycle. I scored a 523 on the MCAT and have created personalized MCAT study plans based on subject strengths and goal scores. We will review practice tests together using my "Why I Missed Spreadsheet" to help focus your content review. For essays, I ask you to share your writing, and I will edit them into impactful responses returned to you within 24-48 hours. My interview-prep style involves 1-hr mock sessions where I rapid-fire common/difficult interview questions. Students have told me that their real interviews felt much easier. I emphasize a strategy that will help you set the tone and convey who you are effectively.
I hope you consider me in your ACT prep or med school journey. I care about equitable education. We can negotiate rates.
Best,
Preethi
