Hi, I'm Samhitha! I'm a medical student with a background in biomedical engineering, and I’m passionate about helping students succeed—whether that means acing the SAT, boosting their GPA, or getting into their dream school or med program.

I’ve worked with high school and college students at all levels. I specialize in test prep for the SAT, ACT, MCAT, and DAT (science sections only). For SAT and ACT, I tutor every section—Math, Reading, English, and Science—blending content review with strategy to build confidence and results.

For high schoolers, I also tutor AP Biology, AP Chemistry, and K–12 math, helping students strengthen their knowledge and develop the skills they need to excel in class and on exams.

For college and pre-health students, I tutor General Chemistry, Biology, Biochemistry, Genetics, Microbiology, Anatomy & Physiology, and more. I also work with MCAT students (including CARS) using a content + strategy approach that supports high performance.

Outside academics, I help students with college and med school applications—from Common App essays to AMCAS, AACOMAS, and TMDSAS—by offering personalized guidance on crafting strong personal statements, activity descriptions, and secondaries.

My sessions are collaborative, flexible, and personalized—always focused on building understanding, confidence, and measurable progress. Feel free to reach out—I’d love to hear about your goals!
