“Michaela was extremely helpful, and I felt so prepared for the MCAT after my sessions with her. Michaela was very patient, prepared, supportive, and available. She always looked through my tests and practice problems and identified problems I could work on. The sessions were very productive. Michaela was very organized and put together a great day-by-day study schedule. She was very knowledgable about all of the subjects, especially general chemistry, where my knowledge was lacking the most. She was able to answer all questions regarding material and was able to help with test reasoning skills. (Rachel, MCAT Student, Final Score: 507)”

Alexander, MCAT Student -
“Cambridge Coaching really puts their money where their mouth is. I can say with 100% confidence that I would not have scored anywhere near a 522 if I had been prepping on my own or with a larger class. The rigorous coursework gave me every single tool necessary to surpass all my expectations of what I could achieve on the test. Michaela was so supportive and motivating. I never felt judged or like I was being forced to do something: at every step of the way, she made it clear why such work was necessary and trusted me to get whatever I could get done each week.”

“Michaela was absolutely incredible - she has a particular talent for explaining concepts in a way such that others can understand and also talking you through pulling out the important details/concepts. She is also understanding, and does not make you feel self-conscious for making mistakes or misunderstanding a topic. She gives helpful advice as to how to cater your studying to emphasize topics that you are struggling with so that you improve. Michaela was instrumental to my study process, and I accredit a great amount of any success to her help. I feel very grateful to have had Michaela as my coach. I would recommend her to anyone studying for the MCAT.”
