MD/PhD Student

Emily Y.

Hello there! I am a current MD/PhD student. I did my undergrad studies at Cornell University, where I studied biology with a minor in English. I followed the premed track, scored a 521 on the MCAT in 2022, and received acceptances to multiple MD/PhD programs.

I'm passionate about mentorship and began peer tutoring since high school. I received a 36 ACT and 2300 old SAT. I've worked with elementary and high school students, undergraduates, and international graduate students. In college, I served as an advisor and peer tutor for the biology major. I worked as a TA for two neuroscience courses, a genetics course, and a physics course, and I have taken a class on teaching techniques. I also served as an editor and writer for campus magazines. Currently, I am also involved in advising premed students through several programs.

I've received great mentorship, and I'm always looking for opportunities to pass this on!
