BLUEPRINT STUDENTS RAISED THEIR
MCAT SCORES BY
+15 POINTS
ON AVERAGE*

Evan

MCAT Score: 527

Education: University of Kansas B.S in Molecular Biology, minors in Spanish and Psychology

Evan has had several teaching and tutoring experiences in his time at the University of Kansas. Beginning in August 2020 he tutored students in genetics, organic chemistry, and biology. He has also been involved in peer education efforts involving health and well-being topics. For Evan, tutoring and teaching are fantastic ways to help promising students to reach their potentials. With a special emphasis on strategy and practice, Evan understands that the MCAT is a solvable puzzle in which students combine their scientific knowledge, logic, and critical reading skills to demonstrate to medical school admissions committees their readiness to become physicians. Outside of tutoring, Evan is an avid sports fan, video game enthusiast, dog-lover, engaged community member and advocate, and a mediocre chess player (thanks to Queen’s Gambit).See more

Julia

MCAT: 525

Education: University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), Psychobiology

Julia studied for and took the MCAT in 2021, and joined Blueprint because she wanted to teach for the company that reshaped her entire approach to the MCAT! To Julia, teaching means more than just lecturing on content and solving problems; she believes that a central part is helping individuals find their motivation and develop a mindset of consistency. Julia got a perfect 132 on both the Bio/Biochem and Psych/Soc sections, and is passionate about helping students find their own optimal studying approach. She is currently finishing her bachelors degree at UCLA, where she mentors students directly as an RA on campus and has been heavily involved in emergency medicine clinical research out of Ronald Reagan Hospital since her freshman year. In any spare time she gets, you’ll probably find her at UCLA’s gym doing her favorite thing: lifting heavy weights! Julia also loves to spend her free time hiking, shopping, and spending a long time in the grocery store wandering the aisles.See more

George

MCAT Score: 524

Education: University of Toronto, MD (Class of 2025); University of Ottawa, Biomedical Science (Valedictorian 2021)

For George, teaching is a physiological need on the same level as food, water, and shelter (shoutout Maslow!) With more than 10 years of teaching experience, he has helped students reach their tailored academic goals as an award-winning tutor, mentor, and teaching assistant. After scoring a 100th percentile MCAT score (132s in CHM/PHY, BIO/BCH, and PSY/SOC) and obtaining a perfect 4.0 GPA, George has amassed a repertoire of clever mnemonics, funny anecdotes, and test-taking strategies to help his students better understand, retain, and apply course concepts. Beyond the classroom, George has completed a number of research projects in biochemistry, genetics, and SARS-CoV-2 virology. He runs a YouTube channel on the side, is a *self-proclaimed* multi-sport athlete, and has a healthy obsession for sunset chasing. He is currently studying medicine at the University of Toronto, and spends most of his free time playing volleyball at the beach! See more

Pooja

MCAT: 523

Education: Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons (2026); Boston University (2021)

Pooja has spent a long time studying for the MCAT, as she postponed her exam date which then got canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Once she finished her exam, she found herself drawn to teaching others the lessons she learned from her own experiences so they don't have to make the same mistakes she did. She recognizes that everyone's journey to success is different, and hopes to become a part of that journey for her students. Currently, she is pursuing a research fellowship with the CDC on the COVID-19 task force and is a public health lead for the nonprofit the Thaakat Foundation. In her free time, she explores her new home in Atlanta, binge-watches political dramas, and cooks.See more

Austin

MCAT: 525

Education: Johns Hopkins University Postbaccalaureate, UCLA

Austin has been a standardized testing instructor since 2018. As a non-traditional premed, he has always enjoyed teaching students from diverse intellectual backgrounds and tailoring study plans to each student’s unique learning style. Austin scored a perfect 132 on the CARS and the Psych/Soc sections of the MCAT and believes that closely analyzing practice results is key to making large improvements on test day. He currently works as a psychiatry extern at Mount Sinai hospital in New York City and spends his free time skateboarding, rock climbing, and watching the Sacramento Kings lose.See more

Evan

MCAT: 527

Education: University of Kansas B.S in Molecular Biology, minors in Spanish and Psychology

Evan began teaching and tutoring in 2020, while he was an undergraduate at the University of Kansas. He began by tutoring students in genetics, organic chemistry, and biology. After Evan took the MCAT in March 2021, he swiftly joined the Blueprint team, and has been teaching and tutoring the MCAT ever since. For Evan, tutoring and teaching are fantastic ways to help promising students to reach their potentials. With a special emphasis on strategy and practice, Evan understands that the MCAT is a solvable puzzle in which students combine their scientific knowledge, logic, and critical-reading skills to demonstrate to medical school admissions committees their readiness to become physicians. Evan particularly enjoys showing students how even the most intimidating MCAT questions can be broken down into simpler steps, and can therefore be much more straightforward than they seemed at first glance. Outside of tutoring, Evan spent time working as a medical scribe, volunteering as an interpreter for Spanish-speaking patients, and residing over the University of Kansas' Peer Health Education program. Evan now works in a neurosurgery research lab. An avid sports fan, Evan loves the Kansas City Chiefs, but also enjoys spending time reading books about science fiction, fantasy, and science.See more

Ian

MCAT: 525

Education: N/A

Ian has a diversity of teaching and work experiences he draws on to keep learning engaging. He easily relates with students from a variety of backgrounds and especially empathizes with students who discovered their calling a bit later in life. He currently works full-time and volunteers as the Board Chair of a local non-profit focused on food insecurity and environment. He knows other MCAT students are just as busy as he was, and really enjoys discussing MCAT test-taking strategies that work for time-pressed students who maybe at first aren’t too familiar with MCAT tested content, or for those that haven’t applied it in a while. He understands it can be a struggle to keep balance while preparing for a stellar MCAT performance. He has plenty of cautionary tales from his own experience and enjoys pointing out the pitfalls he fell into so others can learn to avoid the mistakes he made, while hopefully getting a chuckle. He balances these stories of what not to do, with strategies and tips that worked best for him on his own MCAT journey to a 100th percentile score (525). He particularly likes sharing strategies he used to ace the notorious CARS section with a 132. In his free time, he enjoys binging on tv shows and finding new hiking trails where he and his wife try to keep up with their dog.See more

Kat

MCAT: 523

Education: Stanford University, Human Biology (Honors) (2020)

For Kat, MCAT tutoring goes beyond explaining concepts and answering questions. Tutoring is also about helping students develop the confidence, critical thinking skills, and study habits that will not only allow them to succeed on MCAT test day, but will carry over into medical school and throughout their lives. Kat got a perfect 132 on the Bio/Biochem and Psych/Soc sections of the MCAT and likes to remind students that, with a foundational understanding of content and strong problem-solving skills, you don't need to know everything in order to achieve a perfect score. A former D1 athlete and lover of games, Kat enjoys working with students to help them view the MCAT as a puzzle and ultimately "crack the MCAT code." Currently, Kat is a clinical researcher in the Department of Orthopedics at Seattle Children's Hospital and serves as a director for the nonprofit organization Synapse National. Kat will be starting medical school in Fall 2022. In her free time, Kat can usually be found hiking, skiing, or playing beach volleyball!See more
