About Prarthana


Bio

Hi! I’m Prarthana, an incoming M1 at a Virginia MD school. I earned a 130 (98%) on both the CARS and Psychology/Sociology sections of the MCAT, as well as a 129 (90%) on the Biology + Biochemical Foundations section. I had taken the MCAT prior and scored very low, and was devastated. I was able to use tips, strategy, dedicated studying, and discipline to increase my score by over 14 points. I therefore specialize in teaching CARS, B/B, and P/S to students who are either looking to score well...

Hi! I’m Prarthana, an incoming M1 at a Virginia MD school. I earned a 130 (98%) on both the CARS and Psychology/Sociology sections of the MCAT, as well as a 129 (90%) on the Biology + Biochemical Foundations section. I had taken the MCAT prior and scored very low, and was devastated. I was able to use tips, strategy, dedicated studying, and discipline to increase my score by over 14 points. I therefore specialize in teaching CARS, B/B, and P/S to students who are either looking to score well on their first attempt, or students who need to retake the exam and are not sure how to do so. I can also help premedical students with editing their personal statements or work/activities sections for AMCAS.

I graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill with a B.S. in Neuroscience, and got a Masters degree in Physiology shortly after. I have previous experience teaching English as well as helping students on standardized exams. I am now accepted into medical school and hoping to help students like me improve their MCAT score during this time. Feel free to contact me if you have any additional questions, or if you would like to schedule a session.

MCAT

I earned a 130 (98%) on both the CARS and Psychology/Sociology sections of the MCAT, as well as a 129 (90%) on the Biology + Biochemical Foundations section. I had taken the MCAT prior and scored very low, and I was able to use tips, strategy, dedicated studying, and discipline to increase my score by over 14 points. As a tutor, I help students increase their scores by personalizing my approach to their weakness and strengths. I first develop study plans that target students' weaknesses to give them the best chance for improvement. With the CARS and P/S sections specifically, I like to go over practice passages and implement reading strategies to find the correct answer. For B/B, with my background in Physiology and premedical coursework, I aim to explain difficult concepts in ways that are easy to understand. Overall, my goal is to simplify the MCAT and help students improve their scores in the most efficient way possible.
Personal Statements

Personal Statements

I have experience with writing and editing personal statements for undergraduate, Master's, and medical school programs. I have recently been accepted to a MD medical school program with a personal statement that I carefully curated. I can provide my expertise and help with knowing how to craft a compelling narrative for a personal statement, as well as with organization and structure of the essay.

Kind, Knowledgable, and Wonderdful Tutor

Prarthana is really sweet and took the time to understand the way I learn before creating an MCAT plan that actually fits me. It never felt rushed or forced. She explained everything clearly and made sure I felt confident before moving on. I could tell she cares a lot about her students and genuinely wants them to succeed, not just get through the material. She really goes above and beyond and I am grateful I got the chance to work with her. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs some extra help.

Patient and Compassionate tutor

Prarthana taught me a lot about my topic for my sociology project on Culture and Society with how to organize my power point info and recommend good visuals for my project. She even answered my questions very directly and engaging for me to understand. I really enjoyed our tutoring session a lot since she was very sweet and easy to talk to as a first timer using this platform. If you're looking for a tutor to help your child with sociology for college, I would definitely recommend Prarthana.
