More About Justin

Hi there! I’m Justin, and I am excited to work with you toward the MCAT score of your dreams! I graduated from Yale University in 2019 with a degree in psychology with a neuroscience concentration. I have years of experience working with bright and driven students such as yourself to reach their highest potential, and I cannot wait to get started with you!

I’m a runner at heart, and I found this skillset translated surprisingly well to the undertaking of preparing for the MCAT. At the start of my MCAT studying, I felt overwhelmed by both the depth and breadth of the material tested. How can someone be reasonably expected to master so many subjects? Throughout my studying, however, I came back to the same mantra that’s gotten me through many grueling races: run the mile you’re in. Learning to apply this mindset on a consistent basis to my studying was an integral aspect of my eventual success. It can be discouraging to think about how far away you may be from your goal and concentrating my efforts on improving one day at a time helped focus my preparation and improve my overall well-being. 

Using MCAT Self Prep’s approach, I was able to devise a study plan that allowed me to move at my own pace. My diagnostic score was more than 30 points below the score I earned on test day, and I credit so much of my improvement to the effective guidance I received from MCAT Self Prep. As a tutor, I love helping students with each section of the MCAT, but I most enjoy teaching Chemistry/Physics and Biology/Biochemistry. In our sessions, I’ll share my tips and tricks for making both of these sections a breeze!

I’m currently working as a postgraduate research associate at the Yale School of Medicine. I’ll be matriculating to medical school in the Fall of 2023 (hopefully somewhere warmer than Connecticut!), where I hope to continue my research. In my spare time, you can usually find me on the tennis courts practicing my serve, training for my next race, or out in downtown New Haven, trying a new dish at one of our many exceptional restaurants. 

If you think I may be a good fit for your learning style, feel free to reach out to me! We can schedule a free 10-minute consultation by phone and take it from there if it seems like a good match.

Madison

“Justin was an exceptional tutor! He did a great job of not moving too quickly or slowly through all of the practice material. He always came ready for each session with a smile and prepared to answer all of my questions. I know for a fact that I would not have been as successful without his guidance throughout my studying. If you’re getting ready for the MCAT, Justin is the guy for you!

Charles

“I think what made Justin such an effective tutor for me was how he was able to make the sessions not feel like work. As funny as it sounds, I really looked forward to our weekly sessions because he made it such an enjoyable experience. I think that, because I enjoyed it so much, I was able to get so much more out of our time together than if it had just felt like a slog to get through. I improved 13 points on my retake from my first MCAT and I’m so grateful to Justin for helping me get there!

David

“Honestly, I was ready to give up on medical school before I started working with Justin. I had already taken the MCAT twice and hadn’t even cracked 495 on either attempt. I worked with Justin for about 3 months and during that time, he showed me how to attack problems in a whole new way. Problems that used to seem impossible to solve became easy points after working with him. He did a great job of helping me gain confidence in myself, and I would never have been able to score a 511 on test day without him. I cannot recommend Justin enough to anyone who needs tutoring.”

Lance

“I really can’t say enough about Justin, as both a tutor and a person. Obviously, I’m so grateful for everything he did to help me achieve my dream MCAT score (a 516!), but I think the time I spent with him did so much for me beyond the MCAT. He’s such an encouraging person, and he instilled such a sense of confidence in me that I’m not sure I ever would have found on my own. I’m starting medical school this year, and I know that the lessons I learned from Justin and the belief in myself that I found from working with him will go a long way toward helping me do well in school.

Noah

“I had worked with other tutors in the past and had come to the conclusion that it was kind of a waste of money. After a free consult with Justin, his genuineness convinced me to work with him to improve my score. Without a doubt, it was one of the best decisions I ever made. He was such a kind and understanding tutor and never made me feel dumb for not knowing something. I really appreciated the way he would walk through a question with me instead of just giving me the answer. He’s a great tutor!”

Can a tutor help me with my study plan?

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

Yes! The final month of studying is actually the best time to take advantage of Elite Tutoring. You will be doing many full-length practice exams during your final month, and your Elite Tutor can review the toughest passages and questions with you. Study Plan Advising is also extremely helpful as you try to decide what and how to study during the final month. Students find that working with someone who has already conquered the exam to be very reassuring during the most stressful period of studying.

I need help with the CARS section. Can an Elite Tutor help me with that?

Yes! Our Elite Tutors are trained to help you with every section of the MCAT.

How do I start meeting with a tutor?

To start meeting with your tutor, simply add Elite Tutoring to your cart, and complete the checkout process. Afterwards, you will receive an immediate confirmation email with detailed instructions for getting started.

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

You do not need to meet with your tutor at the same time every week for a set number of weeks. You are able to choose any available tutoring slot from your tutor’s calendar, whether that slot is two months from now or two days from now. You choose the time that works for you! Students love having this flexibility.

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

All of our tutoring sessions are conducted online, and our students find this to be just as effective, if not more effective, than meeting in person. Students really enjoy the fact that they can visit with their tutor without having to ever leave their apartment!

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.
