Hi! I'm Rakesh, a medical student at the Perelman School of Medicine at UPenn. I've been teaching and tutoring since high school, working with everyone from K-12 kids trying to make sense of math to pre-meds aiming for top MCAT scores.
I know firsthand how brutal the MCAT prep process can be. After scoring in the 100th percentile, I’ve spent over 100 hours tutoring applicants and helping them get into their top-choice medical schools. My approach is pretty straightforward: instead of...

Rakesh was really helpful in reviewing content and practice problems. He was knowledgeable and patient throughout the whole process. He made me feel more confident about taking the MCAT.

Excellent tutor
Rakesh is very knowledgeable and very good at explaining concepts. He tailors to your specific needs and is patient and understanding. I have already seen progress from my three lessons with Rakesh, and am excited to keep improving.

Knowledgeable and Personable
Rakesh was a great tutor. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable about MCAT material but he was very organized in helping me prepare for the exam. He went above and beyond in his planning to go as far as even talk about test day specific plan. I enjoyed working with Rakesh, he is extremely personable and helped me improve me from my initial score of 505 after content review to a 514 on the real test. I can’t thank Rakesh enough and will continue to go to him for help on the rest of my application.

Rakesh is excellent, knowledgeable, and patient
I had my first lesson with Rakesh and I couldn’t be more pleased. I’ve met a lot of tutors that are knowledgeable, but their ability to articulate the content is lacking. Rakesh is thorough and articulates the MCAT high yield topics clearly. He makes learning hard topics feel easy, even when it’s awful subjects like optics. I’m excited for these next few weeks!!

Knowledgeable and a Great Tutor!
During my tutoring session, we reviewed various CARS tips and walked through a passage to implement the strategies. Rakesh helped me gain a better understanding of the passage and confidence in my answer choices. Ultimately, I improved my CARS section score. I recommend Rakesh to anyone who finds themselves having difficulties in the CARS section.
