    How our test prep works

    DETERMINE BASELINE & GOALS
    First we establish your baseline score, either through a prior test or a new practice test. We’ll also discuss your admissions plan and timeline.
    ESTABLISH A PLAN AND START PREPARING
    Next, we’ll create a plan and your tutor will implement it with you. Sessions will occur regularly (with the same tutor) that take the stress out of the prep process while boosting your score.
    MAKE SURE YOU’RE ON TRACK:
    Once every few weeks we will reevaluate your progress and refine the study plan and tutoring to improve weak areas.

    A Typical Test Prep session

    Review
    Your tutor will review any prior “homework” with you, noting any errors so you recognize and avoid them in the future.
    Content
    Your tutor will teach you the academic concepts covered by the exam. These might include math, science, reading comprehension, grammar, writing, etc.
    Strategy
    It’s not enough to just learn content. Successful students understand how to recognize “patterns” in questions and avoid getting tricked.
    Application
    You’ll learn how to combine content and strategy to tackle any question on the exam.
    Practice
    Your tutor will assign specific sections of the exam based on your session, and full-length exams (less often) to make you familiar with the test-taking environment.

    Common Challenges with the MCAT

    The Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) is a standardized exam used for medical school admissions. Students pursuing a career in medicine should prioritize this test because it is a perfect opportunity that can have phenomenal outcomes for them. Preparing for the MCAT is important as the results will have a direct effect on the admissions competitiveness and financial aid opportunities. The MCAT evaluates problem solving, critical thinking, written analysis, and scientific concepts and principles. The MCAT is considered as a very difficult exam since it lasts nearly 8 hours and is based around knowing content and applying the material rather than using common sense and logic. TutorNerds pairs you with a perfect tutor match that can re-teach the curriculum and provide you with useful MCAT tips to ensure your success.

    How to get the best MCAT tutor near you

    With young students who take MCAT, it's important to partner with a tutor who can explain these concepts in a way students can understand. The tutor needs to know the material, but also has to have experience working with young students in particular. It all comes down to experience: Has the tutor produced good results with MCAT students before. That's why students get results from TutorNerd: Our tutors make difficult concepts easy to understand (check out all our five-star reviews). The way we ensure the success of our students is that we individually hire our MCAT tutors. That's why we guarantee our services: If you don't love your MCAT tutor, you don't pay.
