Whether you are looking to gain acceptance to medical school directly out of college or you are coming back to school in search of a career change to an advanced medical field, you will need to face the MCAT before you can begin your medical studies. This is an important exam that admissions offices use to estimate your suitability to the programs offered at their schools. For this reason, it's important to do your absolute best, and enlisting the support of an MCAT tutor to prep you for the exam is a wise choice. MCAT test prep tutors are able to help just about any student.

As a matter of fact, research on tutoring shows that most students are able to improve understanding, earn better grades, and increase their test scores when they have dedicated support regardless of their current skill level. If you think that an MCAT tutor can help you get ready for test day, UniversityTutor is here to help. Our agents will talk to you about your current needs, areas of opportunity, goals for the exam, and more to find a tutor who has the proper level of ability and teaching skills to help you. We will also give you a customized MCAT study plan for you and your tutor to follow so that you can make effective progress. As you work through sessions with your tutor and new opportunities arise to potentially increase your score, your tutor can modify this plan.

When you sign up for MCAT tutoring, you have the opportunity to take advantage of a variety of benefits. The most obvious benefit is the ability to receive 1-on-1 support from someone who knows both the material that the exam covers and the layout of each section that you will face. An MCAT prep tutor can not only drill you on the types of questions that you will see on exam day, but they can also familiarize you with each section and provide you with tips and strategies on how to perform at your full potential. When it comes to test prep tutoring, many students benefit from developing time management skills.

The MCAT limits your time on each section, and due to its comprehensive nature, it requires a significant amount of endurance and concentration. A tutor can help you focus on developing your ability to work through questions accurately while staying efficient, and they can administer timed practice exams as well, giving you feedback on ways to improve your speed. Another advantage of virtual tutoring is that you can schedule it around the rest of your responsibilities. Since you will meet with your test prep tutor online, we can set you up with someone who has both the right set of skills for your needs and a schedule that matches yours. The convenience of getting dedicated support that focuses on your needs while meeting your schedule is part of what makes tutoring stand apart from other test prep options.

Your MCAT tutor can address any areas of need that you have in your preparation for the exam. Maybe you need a refresher on organic chemistry in preparation for the Chemical and Physical Foundations of Biological Systems section. Perhaps you feel good about the science and social science material but have always had a hard time with reading comprehension and need to improve that skill for the Critical Analysis and Reasoning Skills section.

Wherever you have opportunities to improve, a tutor can focus there and help you make strides. One thing that sets tutoring apart from other learning resources is the fact that you can get support using a teaching style that matches the way that you learn best. For example, if you're more of an auditory learner, discussing the finer points of biological factors that influence someone's perception gives you an opportunity to talk out any points of confusion and get them addressed immediately, clearing the way for a more solid understanding. If you're more hands-on, you may get more out of extra practice tests that your tutor can assess to figure out where to provide more practice in future sessions.

The price you will pay for MCAT tutoring depends on your needs. If you have been studying for a long time and feel like you just want the perspective of someone who has experience with the exam to make sure you're ready to do your best, a tutor may accomplish this in a handful of sessions. On the other hand, if you recently decided to take the MCAT and have a limited amount of time to prepare, you may need regular sessions for the next couple of months to get comprehensive support.

The amount of tutoring you need affects the price, as does the skill level of a tutor who has the appropriate skills to help you. Another option that you may be interested in is group tutoring, where you meet with peers and a private MCAT teacher at the same time, sharing the cost of the tutor.
