“Joyce was always incredibly positive and encouraging. She created an extensive three-month study plan, and came to each session prepared with extra practice passages, and provided emotional support whenever I felt stressed about test prep. She adjusted each session based on what I needed to make sure I truly understood the AAMC style of thinking.”
Official Score: 520. Improved 14 points from 506.
Caroline, MCAT Student -
“Joyce was punctual and organized, well-prepared for every session, flexible, patient, and emotionally supportive. She was resourseful, creative, and had an organized approach to covering material in our sessions. I also really appreciated the mini check-ins at the beginning of our sessions—just to talk about life, the application process, how I was feeling, etc. I felt like she really cared about me as a person. I always looked forward to our sessions. Joyce was responsive, never judgemental, and always made sure I was comfortable with our game plan. I feel like everyone at Cambridge Coaching is super caring and invested in your success.”

She taught me how to study efficiently and effectively, how to learn from mistakes and built the strategy and confidence necessary to tackle tough passages. She created a personalized approach for my learning style. Beyond academic support, Joyce consistently checked in with me to see how I was doing generally, and how I was feeling about the test. She was an encouraging and wonderful teacher, and I couldn't be more grateful for all her support. I felt fully prepared and confident going into my test! Score went from 501 to 520.”
