Hello! I am Christine, first year medical student at Case Western Reserve University. I went to Princeton University for undergrad, where I studied Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. Afterwards, I pursued a Master's in Nutrition at Columbia University. I grew up in Long Island, a notoriously competitive area for college admissions. I know the process inside and out, and just recently survived the much more painstaking medical school admissions process. I understand how stressful it can be and want to help!

I have been tutoring students since scoring a 2390 on my SAT back in 2015 and most recently scored a 520 on the MCAT. I am well-versed in both the college and medical school admissions processes, having served as an interviewer for both. I love working with students to create strong personal narratives that make them stand out and to break down complex science and math subjects. My strengths lie in admissions processes and standardized testing--there IS a way to crack it and do well consistently. I especially enjoy tutoring MCAT CARS.

I am very flexible and easy to reach. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns!

Great CARS Tutor

Christine and I had a session where we went through an AAMC CARS passage. She guided my focus onto Direct Passage Support in answering questions. Something I haven't utilized before. We worked through reasoning for each question and answer. Of course because it was my first time trying a new approach there were struggles in answering the questions but she did a great job of pulling me back to core concepts. Overall I think she did a great job of explaining the why behind MCAT questions and how to approach it from now on. I want to implement this new strategy with practice and hope to have another session again.

Great tutor for CARS Section MCAT

Christine was a great tutor for the CARS section of the MCAT. She took the time to go through an entire passage with me and explained where I should be looking for the answers and how to eliminate ones that didn't make sense.
