About Meagen


Bio

I am a family physician currently in my second year of residency. I tutor the CARS section of the MCAT utilizing the AAMC question packs. I also tutor personal statements for medical school or any graduate or professional school. During the lesson, we walk through a passage together and discuss strategies for reading and answering the questions. It is completely okay if you have done the question packs before. No prep or materials are needed!

I am passionate about medicine and writing and I would love to help anyone who is planning on applying to medical school or professional school. I know what admissions committees are looking for and I would love to support you in achieving your dream of becoming a doctor. Personal statement and secondary edits can be done via track changes and comments or a lesson where we work together on a google doc.

MCAT

MCAT

I am a pre-med student who recently took the MCAT in April 2017 and I scored a 129 in the CARS section (95th percentile). While some students typically find this one of the most challenging sections, it is my favorite and I will show you how to break down each passage and answer questions in a methodical, efficient manner. I have successfully tutored several students at my university and seen significant improvement. This is a worthwhile section of the MCAT to invest in because it is easy to improve quickly and can definitely help your score!

I am a first year medical student and my goal is to help you get into your dream professional school, be awarded that scholarship, or get an A on your paper. I provide helpful, specific feedback to make sure that you are addressing the prompt in a clear, concise, and powerful way. I have helped many people to achieve their goals and I aim to help you become a better writer in the process!

Wherever you are in studying for CARS, I HIGHLY recommend Meagen.

Something I loved about Meagen is that she emphasized starting from the basics: taking your time, understanding the passages and questions, and putting it together. Then you can start building in more factors. She gives you great strategies to approach reading, working on time, and getting to the correct answer. I appreciated how patient she was as I was a slow reader at first and she truly works with you at the level you are at. You might ask why you need someone to go through a passage with you, but trust me- it is SO helpful! You absolutely need to practice outside of tutoring, but Meagen's help got me to being a confident in reading and answering questions. Again, highly recommend Meagen!

Amazing tutor!

Meagen is an extremely patient, kind, and knowledgeable tutor. She made an effort to learn about the type of learner I am and incorporated a variety of different styles to try. She provided simple tips and tricks that are easily overlooked which have significantly increased my CARS score. She did a great job at talking through each answer choices as to why it would be correct/incorrect and highlighted keywords that would help me determine the answer. Highly recommend! Thanks so much Meagen!!

Dedicated tutor

Meagan has taught me various techniques to tackle CARs passages! I have learned to make a passage map with the main ideas and highlight the words that are only necessary. Meagan has also taught me to use process of elimination to narrow down some answer choices. I have been applying these techniques during my own study time!

She knows how to ask you questions to better reflect on your experiences and focus the essay better. She also helped enhance the activity essays for the medical school application.
