USMLE Step 2 CK (268) & NBME Shelf Exam Tutor | M4 Medical Student

Ansley J.

Hi, I’m Ansley! I earned my B.S. in Neuroscience from the University of Kentucky and am a fourth-year medical student at the University of Kentucky College of Medicine, graduating in May 2027. I scored a 268 on USMLE Step 2 CK and ranked in the 97th percentile nationally on the Surgery Shelf, 95th in Internal Medicine, 84th in OB/GYN, and 83rd in Pediatrics. I’m excited to help students reach their goals while keeping my clinical knowledge sharp and developing my teaching skills before residency.

Throughout medical school, I’ve informally tutored fellow medical students in individual and group study sessions. I’ve explained challenging topics, asked clinical reasoning questions, and helped classmates work through difficult material. My approach emphasizes active recall, question-based learning, and understanding why answers are right or wrong rather than memorizing facts. I tailor explanations to each student’s needs and aim to make complex concepts feel manageable.

Having recently taken Step 2 CK and completed my core clerkships, I understand the challenge of studying alongside clinical responsibilities. I’m especially interested in tutoring Step 2 CK and NBME Shelf exams, particularly Internal Medicine and Surgery. I also offer help with anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, and brainstorming or editing medical school and residency personal statements. My goal is to create an encouraging, interactive environment where students build clinical reasoning skills, test-taking confidence, and a study strategy that works for them.
