We specialize in raising scores on the Verbal Reasoning section of the MCAT. Our MCAT Verbal Reasoning Tutoring staff have had tremendous success in raising students scores on verbal reasoning, a scored section of the MCAT that is notoriously difficult to increase.
How do we do it?
We give our students intensive training with the best. We start off by picking tutors that have not only dominated the verbal reasoning section themselves, but those who have had past success helping students raise their scores. After this step is complete we apply an individualized approach to the section, allowing our students to meet with your tutor one hour free of charge to formulate a strategy that will asses and improve areas of weakness. By working with our MCAT tutoring service, our tutors can work with you to explain the different types of question stems and answer choices typically associated with these passages to decode what the question is asking and how to arrive at the correct answer.
After formulating a personalized strategy, we start our students on a rigorous reading regimen that has passages similar to that of the MCAT to increase reading speed and accuracy, while assigning practice passages to implement the strategy. Our tutors will then provide feedback, thus sharpening the skills over time to give our students the best chance at acing the MCAT Verbal Reasoning Section!
