MCAT CARS Strategy Tutor — 526-Scorer
- $85 / h
- 101 ratings
- Orinda , California ( 94563 )
- 0 miles
When I talk to people about CARS, I often hear the same thing: “I’ve tried everything and my score won’t budgeâ€. But after we work together for a while, they do improve. That’s because I’ve painstakingly analyzed every CARS passage the AAMC has released and put together a strategy that WORKS.

Here’s how I do it... Read more
