“I had the pleasure of working with Simran both as my MCAT tutor and MD coach, and I can confidently say that she is exceptional. During my MCAT preparation, she provided me with clear and achievable goals. Her explanations of complex concepts were excellent, and she tailored a CARS strategy that was particularly effective for my learning style. Additionally, Simran supported me through my entire application process. Her feedback was always thoughtful and prompt, and her insights were crucial in preparing me for every interview. Despite having suboptimal stats, we were able to construct a compelling narrative based on my strengths, which resulted in my acceptance into two of my preferred medical schools and several MD/PHD programs. I am certain that Simran's contributions were vital to my success - I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
