Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 44 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company.

Shahar Was Excellent!!!

Shahar greatly assisted me raise my score more than I ever expected. Not only did he ensure that I was applying all of the correct strategies for each section of the exam, but he also checked-in on my mental health after each session to be sure that I was working efficiently without burn-out. Overall, Shahar was one of the best tutors I could have asked for on my MCAT journey!

Natasha was the best!

I scheduled 3 sessions throughout the last 2 weeks of my MCAT studying. Right off the bat Natasha was cordial and flexible, answering my email quickly and making it possible to meet sooner than I had originally scheduled. I was mainly looking to learn about MCAT specific test taking strategies in my tutoring sessions, and Natasha presented exactly what I was looking for. She explained different techniques and then showed me specific examples of where and how they can be used. With her help, over a two week span and between 2 AAMC FLs, I saw a 7 point increase. She fulfilled every request I had and was an absolutely wonderful person to have in my corner for the last 2 weeks leading up to my MCAT.

Hieu was truly the best tutor I’ve ever had. He didn’t mind repeating information until I got it down and would show examples after examples. Not only did he help me study but what I appreciate the most is we had mental health check ins, being the fact that this exam is extensive. He allowed me to go at my paste and never rushed me, to understand the material. Overall Hieu is an amazing person inside and out and I’m so thankful to have had him as a tutor!

Hieu was amazing!!!!

I really enjoyed the motivational emails sent out by MCAT Mastery throughout my MCAT prep process. Hieu was an amazing tutor who stayed positive and uplifted my spirits when I felt de-motivated. He would break down the complicated questions and make them simple to understand. The day before my test, he gave me amazing tips that I hadn't thought of before and was very reassuring. He was also very responsive whenever I had a question via email or text. Overall, I had a great experience with MCAT Mastery and Hieu was amazing to work with!!!

Emily is the best!!!

Emily was so sweet and amazing and an amazing tutor! She really helped me identify where I was going wrong in CARS and build strategies based on my weak points. Needless to say, I saw an increase in my score! She really pushed me to improve on my weaknesses and I was definitely able to see the results on my practice exams :)

Increased score significantly on practice exams!

I started tutoring sessions with Pooja after plateauing around the low 500s for a few months. I couldn't figure out what my issues were and was never able to find patterns in my practice exams. I was looking for someone who would help me find those patterns and weaknesses. I am so happy to say that Pooja was able to help me do exactly that! In 1.5 months over 8 sessions I was able to increase my score by 13 points from my first AAMC full length to my last one. Pooja was also amazing at reminding me to take breaks and helping me come up with a reasonable schedule without burning out. I cannot recommend her enough!

I overcame my score plateau and improved in CARS thanks to my tutor and MCAT Mastery

I received so much help from my tutor Emily during my last five weeks of prep. Before coming to MCAT Mastery, I plateaued for 4+ months of prep. However, my score improves by 8 points when I receive help from my tutor. She walks me through the strategies, identifies my mistakes, and helps me develop realistic action plans to improve my performance during the last stretch. Emily was super helpful and responsive to my emails and questions. I am so grateful to have found MCAT Mastery and Emily.

Great tutor

Hanes was very well versed and tried many different method to help me especially when he noticed that certain method would not work for me. He kept me encouraged and was honest with me. He was interactive not only about mcat but all around

Adam Novak!

I was tutored by Adam and it was an amazing experience and exactly what I was looking for! Adam was very knowledgable, understanding, and realistic with me. I knew that lacking content was not my problem. Adam helped me to learn the "AAMC logic" so that I could break down the passages and answer the questions. I ended up reaching my goal range within the last two weeks of my studying and am happy with my score!

Hieu was the best tutor ever! He was so helpful and always so nice. He would give me the best advice and tips that really stuck with me and gave me the little fixes that I needed to increase my score and get through score plateaus. He was also just super encouraging and no matter what made me feel more confident in my skills and this greatly improved my confidence going into the test and on the test!

Hieu was one of the BEST tutors I’ve ever had. He was able to explain to me a bunch of great tricks for MCAT prep that were less content based and more strategy based. He was super personable and I felt like I could ask any question I had. I felt so much more confident going into the MCAT this time.

Saanya Lingineni - Highly recommend!

I first joined MCAT Mastery very scared and with little confidence in my test taking abilities. I took the MCAT in late July, but just a month before that, I would struggle to score above a 500. At my lowest, I scored a 499 on a practice exam and I really needed help with every section.

My first session with Saanya was in early July, and she approached me with the confidence and the reassurance that I lacked. She helped me improve in the areas that I was weakest and helped me go from mastering content to mastering the actual test. I am proud to have known her not only as a tutor, but a good friend.

After our sessions, I approached the test with more confidence and through her guidance, I improved my score from a 499 to a 511 on test day one month later. Thank you Saanya for believing in me, especially at the times when I felt that I couldn’t improve. Thank you MCAT Mastery for giving me the resources necessary to succeed!

Austin is a great tutor!

Austin is an awesome tutor and provides great tips/tricks/strategies to apply for the passages. Although I did not see a boost in score in practice exams over the course of a few weeks, I believe that the strategies learned really helped me dissect the paragraphs and make sense of what was being told. I would recommend having Austin as your tutor!

Working with Hieu

With only 2 weeks left before my MCAT exam I was really anxious since my score had not improved from a 507 after a whole month of studying, especially since I had scored my lowest on C/P on my most recent FL. I kept doing Jack Westin AAMC style passages and was scoring pretty low on them, so I was getting super frustrated at myself.

In my first tutoring session with Hieu, however, he helped me to find the strengths and weaknesses in my strategy to solving passages and he also reassured/motivated me to keep going. Just after this session I got my best scores in both C/P and B/B of 130 and my overall score improved to 513.

We continued to work together in finding more efficient ways to solve problems and in improving my strategies.

I would definitely recommend Hieu to anybody who’s struggling like I was!

Sarah is PHENOMENAL!!

My journey wouldn’t have been the same without Sarah. She is truly genuine, intelligent and empathetic. When we first started, she took the time to listen to my story and devised an individualized approach to help me tackle my weaknesses. In just two weeks, my practice exam scores have gone up four points! Best part was that Sarah made our sessions engaging, fun and with each session, I felt myself growing more confident. If you’re looking for a tutor who can help you look at the MCAT with a fresh set of eyes, and help you reach your goals, it’s Sarah! She’s truly one of a kind.
