Medical Student Specializing in MCAT, Biology, and Chemistry

Rajika C.

Hi! I’m Rajika, I'm currently an M1 enrolled in Rutgers New Jersey Medical School. I graduated from TCNJ in 2025 with a biology major and philosophy minor, as well as a certificate in medical Spanish.
I’ve been tutoring for over 5 years, and have experience working in both online and in-person formats. I’ve tutored high-school and college students in biology, biochemistry, chemistry, pre-Calculus and Calculus, as well as English and Spanish, in one-on-one settings.
I have taken over 10 AP Exams and scored 4s/5s in each, and am a 1550+ SAT and 520+ MCAT scorer. I have been tutoring in MCAT for over a year, and have helped many students master concepts in CARS, C/P, and B/B, as well as devise strategies that are specific to their testing goals and background.
I understand the formula of standardized testing well and am eager to help students who may be struggling develop test-taking strategies that will help them meet their academic goals.
Having so recently been in high-school and college, I know exactly what it’s like to have been in a difficult science or English class, and what the stresses and confusions that fall upon a student may be. As a tutor, I leverage my personal experience to meet the student where they are, sharing my own study skills and strategies while assisting the student with designing new approaches that will help them master their subject.

I like to discuss with a student what learning style works best for them before beginning a session, and tailor how I introduce new concepts and content based on that preference. I know how to break down complex and intimidating subjects into a series of logical steps that the student can make sense of, while keeping the bigger picture in mind.

I am a fast responder and ready to adapt my teaching style based on student resources and suggestions. Feel free to reach out to me for any additional qualifications or information, or to schedule a lesson!
