My name is Luke Motes. I scored a 520 on the MCAT and have been a full-time MCAT tutor for the past 4 years. I have tutored over 150 students, created my own MCAT content, and learned more about the science of learning as part of my commitment to creating a highly successful approach to the MCAT.

What you can expect from tutoring and why it's unlike any other tutoring service:

  • Personalized Study Schedule: The MCAT is too large and complex to approach randomly, and most students don’t have a clear way to measure whether they’re actually improving. For each student, I maintain an updated schedule that defines exactly what topics to study and which practice questions to complete. Progress is measured using both practice question percentages and the student's ability to accurately recall and teach the material.

  • High-Yield MCAT Resources: Standard MCAT materials overwhelm students with thousands of pages, much of which is low-yield. I have written over 500 pages of content focused exclusively on the most testable, high-yield information, making the content load far more realistic and manageable.

  • Effective Study Skills Development: Memorizing MCAT content and analyzing passages is extremely difficult without proper techniques. Students are trained in active recall and passage analysis to make studying more efficient. Students also submit screen recordings of themselves applying these skills, allowing me to give detailed feedback and ensure they are approaching their studying correctly.

  • Ongoing Support and Skill Calibration: Without consistent feedback, students might be less efficient and productive during their self studying time. Text support, screen-recorded feedback, and live sessions ensure skills are applied correctly and refined continuously. 

  • Research-Based Preparation Approach: Many students rely on shortcuts or generic advice that does not hold up on test day. A research-based approach improves retention, application, and efficiency, leading to sustainable and measurable score improvements.

  • Live Sessions: In addition to everything above, students meet regularly for live 1-on-1 virtual sessions based on the number of tutoring hours purchased. These sessions are used to break down difficult passages, clarify challenging concepts, and address any questions that will help drive continuous improvement.
