About Raj


Bio

My name is Balraj, and I am a current M.D. Candidate at Wayne State University School of Medicine, where I rank in the top 5 percent of my class with a first year exam average of 98 percent. Before medical school, I graduated from Duke University (B.S. Biology) and was selected as a Fulbright Scholar, a prestigious honor awarded to fewer than 8 applicants out of over 100 for my specific teaching program in Italy.

I don’t just teach content; I teach the systems required to master it....

My name is Balraj, and I am a current M.D. Candidate at Wayne State University School of Medicine, where I rank in the top 5 percent of my class with a first year exam average of 98 percent. Before medical school, I graduated from Duke University (B.S. Biology) and was selected as a Fulbright Scholar, a prestigious honor awarded to fewer than 8 applicants out of over 100 for my specific teaching program in Italy.

I don’t just teach content; I teach the systems required to master it. Whether you are a high schooler aiming for an Ivy League acceptance or a pre-med student drowning in Chemistry, I can help you build the discipline and strategies that have allowed me to succeed at the highest levels.

My Statistics & Expertise:

Medical School: Top 5 percent of class at WSU School of Medicine (95th+ percentile exams).

Test Prep: Scored in the 99th percentile on the ACT (35) and SAT (1550).

Education: Duke University Graduate (Biology Major, Chemistry Minor).

Honors: 2024 to 2025 Fulbright Scholar (Italy). Taught 400 high school students.

What I Tutor:

Standardized Tests (ACT/SAT): I specialize in breaking down complex questions into simple, repeatable logic. I help students identify their "error patterns" to see rapid score improvements.

Pre-Med Sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Anatomy): As a current medical student scoring near-perfect grades, I can explain complex physiological concepts (like the Krebs cycle or nerve innervation) in simple, memorable terms.

College Admissions & Essays: As a Fulbright Scholar and Duke grad, I know what top institutions look for. I help students craft personal statements that are authentic, compelling, and distinct.

My Teaching Philosophy: My time as a Fulbright Educator in Italy and a Bhangra dance coach taught me that learning must be active. I do not lecture at you; we work through problems together. I focus on "High-Yield" information—teaching you exactly what you need to know to score points, without getting lost in the weeds.

MCAT

As a current M.D. candidate ranking in the top 5% of my medical school class, I know exactly what it takes to master the MCAT sciences. I scored in the 93rd percentile on the Psych/Soc section and the 92nd percentile on Chem/Phys, using a strategic, high-yield approach that I now teach to my students. My tutoring focuses on recognizing test-maker patterns, simplifying complex biochemical pathways, and building the stamina required to conquer the 7-hour exam.
