Educational Background:
I am actively applying to MD-PhD programs and scored a 523 (99th percentile) on the MCAT, successfully breaking through the mid-510 plateau that many students face.
MCAT Expertise:
My strength lies in helping students overcome the challenging transition from good scores (510-515 range) to exceptional scores (518+). I understand the specific hurdles at this level because I've lived them—the 510 plateau requires a fundamental shift in test-taking strategy, content integration, and critical reasoning that goes beyond basic content review. I tutor all four sections of the MCAT with targeted approaches for each:
CARS: Developing efficient passage analysis and question prediction skills
Biological & Biochemical Foundations: Integrating research experience with high-yield concepts
Chemical & Physical Foundations: Translating complex problem-solving into test day performance
Psychological, Social & Biological Foundations: Mastering the nuanced application of behavioral sciences
