“I’ve absolutely loved working with Denisse. She is incredibly knowledgable about all topics MCAT-related and explains concepts in a simple, but detailed way that makes things stick. These tutoring sessions really propelled my score greatly, going from a 507 sample test to 519 on FL3!  Denisse was really flexible with both scheduling and the way that I wanted to conduct tutoring sessions too – flipping between quizzing me, explaining content, and going over practice questions based on whatever I felt was the most helpful for that day. Overall, I’d recommend Denisse 100% to anyone looking to do well on this difficult exam!!”

Tim was quick to respond to any questions I had and gave great tips about the test!Over my three-month period of studying I was able to raise my MCAT score by 13 points.I attribute my success to MCAT Self Prep and especially the guidance Tim was able to give me! I would absolutely recommend Tim as a tutor since he did such an outstanding job with helping me prep for the MCAT!”

Nick

Spencer is the best tutor I have ever worked with!  His combination of professionalism (especially with punctuality and response time), knowledge, and friendly attitude make it easy to succeed and learn.  He is constantly looking for ways to help his students including creating the most thorough and best presented systems for learning concepts that I have thus far encountered.  If someone wanted to have the best tutor possible to succeed, especially in science based studies, Spencer is the clear choice.  You will learn the material, gain a deeper understanding of science in everyday life, and see your scores significantly improve.   I recommend him without reservation.”

“Alex is an excellent tutor who is able to lead a meaningful discussion on a topic covered during a session. Unlike other tutors, Alex emphasized the importance of understanding the fundamental mechanisms behind phenomena instead of merely regurgitating information, which aided me in problem-solving and critical thinking on exams. Alex is receptive to suggestions and, if necessary, willing to quickly implement changes in order to maximize the efficacy of his time with students. He will be an exceptional educator to any medical school applicant who seeks to improve their score.”

“Kathryn was a godsend when I was preparing to retake the MCAT. It was my third try and I felt so discouraged by my previous scores. It was my Achilles heel in my dream of becoming a doctor. Having a friend to study with changed the game. She helped me practice effectively instead of just drilling the same knowledge over again for a third time. My biggest improvement was on the CARS section. I actually found myself looking forward to CARS practice once I learned how to be curious about the passages and analyze all of the answer choices. On that third try, I improved my score from a 498 to a 510!

“Riley is an excellent tutor who focuses on teaching fundamental details within concepts necessary for learning. He is a very kind and patient person who creates a positive learning environment for any student looking to improve their understanding of the material, no matter what their familiarity with the material may be. Riley has significantly helped me internalize difficult and abstract science concepts with ease and I would most definitely recommend him to anybody seeking to improve their MCAT knowledge and test-taking ability.”

Will Elite Tutoring help me during my final month of MCAT studying?

How often will I meet with a tutor? How does scheduling a session work?

Students love having this flexibility.

Is there any way to meet in person with my tutor?

He has worked one-on-one with hundreds of diverse students and will carefully consider your unique situation as he provides a careful recommendation and answers your questions.

How we Matched up the Khan Academy Passages with the eCourse Lessons

Each lesson of the eCourse contains links to 1 to 5 Khan Academy science passages for the purpose of providing you with non-AAMC material to practice your science passage reading skills on. By completing all the linked passages within every lesson, you will have finished all the freely available Khan Academy science passages.

To match up the Khan Academy Science Passages with the eCourse lessons, we carefully examined the passage and question content of each one. Then we decided which lesson of the eCourse best correlated with that content. You may notice that some passages don’t match up perfectly with the current lesson. If they don’t match up with the current lesson, they should match up with one of the previous lessons in the module. We did this carefully so that you could practice your science passage reading skills on passages that contain the content you’ve already learned.

Why we don’t recommend non-AAMC CARS practice questions

We recommend practicing CARS by reading non-AAMC CARS passages but not doing the associated practice problems. The reason we don’t recommend doing the practice problems is because the MCAT is written by the AAMC. They have a very unique style in which they write CARS practice questions that third-party companies (try as they might) are unable to replicate. When students spend time on non-AAMC CARS practice problems, they get familiar with the wrong style of questioning, leading them to overthink and incorrectly respond to the questions written by the AAMC. Thus, it is in your best interest to solely practice on AAMC CARS practice questions.

That said, we highly recommend practicing your reading skills on non-AAMC CARS passages. In our Ultimate CARS Strategy Course, we provide you with 1,000 free CARS passages and 100+ homework assignments, giving you ample material to practice on. Reading countless passages while practicing the proper reading habits and strategies will prepare you well to conquer the CARS section as it was written by the AAMC.

Which books do the lessons match up with?

The books we use in each lesson are linked below. We plan to stick with these older editions of the books since very little has changed and the older editions are much more affordable:

First Edition of the Kaplan 7-book Series
First Edition of the Princeton 7-book Series

Do the chapters match up perfectly?

The Kaplan Books, Princeton Books, and Khan Academy Videos were all produced by different authors. For this reason, there are some chapters in the Kaplan Book or Princeton Book that are not even found in the Khan Academy Videos and vice versa. For instance, the Kaplan and Princeton Books have chapters that cover certain experimental procedures that the Khan Academy Videos do not cover.

Our goal in matching up the books with the videos was to correlate the content as best as possible while also covering ALL the content from every resource. For this reason, when nothing in the Kaplan Books matched up with one of the video playlists, instead of leaving the reading assignment for Kaplan blank, we inserted material that did not fit in anywhere else (i.e. one of those chapters on an experimental procedure that was not covered by Khan Academy). So, when the assignment doesn’t appear to match up right, please know that this was intentional.

*If you follow the reading assignments outlined, you will finish the entire Kaplan 7-book series and/or Princeton 7-book series by the time you finish all 10 content modules.

Do the sections match up perfectly?

If the sections assigned in our eCourse do not match up with the sections contained in your content review book, you may have a different edition. The sections should still match up the large majority of the time, but in the rare instance that they don’t, I’d recommend simply reading sections that do match up and saving the ones that do not for a future lesson.
