Experience

Hello, my name is Kathleen! I'm currently a first year medical student at OHSU. I feel comfortable tutoring most topics in science, as well as the new and revised MCAT. I recently took the new MCAT 2015 after completing the Kaplan course. After my experience, and for those of you that have followed commentary on Student Doctor Network, it is clear that this is a unique time in MCAT history: test preparation companies have limited information regarding the required content and strategy of the new exam, and for possibly the first time ever, the students that have taken the exam may have more accurate and valuable information than companies such as Kaplan, Examkrackers, The Princeton Review, etc. I would like to take advantage of my position as one of the 'guinea pigs' of the new exam to help others prepare for the MCAT as best as they possibly can. The uncertainty of a new exam is stressful, and I hope that my knowledge and experience with the new MCAT will relieve some of that stress. I scored in the 89% percentile.
