T25 Med Student & 99th-percentile MCAT Scorer | SAT/ACT/MCAT Prep

Steven C.

Hi there! As a first-generation high school graduate now attending a a Top 25 medical school, I know what it takes to master academic content and excel at high-stake exams. I graduated summa cum laude (top 5% of my class) with a Bachelor's in Physiology and Neurobiology, maintaining a 4.0 undergraduate GPA. When I took the MCAT, I scored a 522 (99th percentile), getting a perfect 132 in Chem/Physics and Psychology, and a 131 in Bio. I managed this while taking the exam during finals week, working, and attending school full-time. I understand how to maximize study efficiency and manage time under pressure and hope to help my students develop those same strategies.

Over the past three years, I have gained extensive experience working with primarily 18-23 year old students (high school to college-aged). I have taught in one-on-one, classroom, and paid professional settings, allowing me to adapt to a wide variety of learning styles. During my undergrad, I served as a Teaching Assistant for Introductory Biology, Animal Physiology, and an EMT course. I also worked in an mRNA genetics research lab, which gave me a highly practical, advanced understanding of complex biological systems.

My teaching philosophy revolves around building deep, foundational mastery rather than just memorizing facts. I take a highly detail-oriented approach to ensure my students truly understand the "why" behind concepts.

With how stressful preparing for an exam that determines which college or medical schools are accessible to you, I strive to make my tutoring sections as stress-free as possible. I am very easy to reach, will respond to all inquiries within a day, and offer flexible scheduling to accommodate busy student lives. Please reach out with any questions or to schedule a lesson!
