  Andrew M.490 → to 511Needed to clear 125 in CARS, and the dissections made it happen

  When I stumbled upon MedLife Mastery I was in desperate need of new advice on how to study and how to approach the MCAT. … The passage dissections really helped put me over the 125 mark.

  When I stumbled upon MedLife Mastery I was in desperate need of new advice on how to study and how to approach the MCAT. I bought the Top Scorer MCAT Strategy Guide and the CARS Mastery Report (CARS was my biggest struggle throughout my studies) and both of them gave me great insight on different strategies to incorporate that I hadn't tried yet. .

  The emails I would get, almost daily, of the success stories really motivated me to keep practicing because if someone else with a premed background could do it, then so could I. I signed up for the VIP Member's Area, as well, and used a lot of the information included in it to help boost my score.

  Although CARS was my worst score on both of my writings, I feel like the boost that I needed to get over 125 in that section came from what I learned from the CARS Report. Getting new insight on how to dissect passages and seek out the author's main point is key to scoring well in that section.

  Ultimately, that section's score fluctuates really quickly, so having a game plan going in is important to get as many questions right as you can. The passage dissections really helped put me over the 125 mark. I'd recommend all that MedLife Mastery has to offer because it helped me in the last month and a half before I took my test.

  I bounced around the 503-505 range for a few weeks and eventually was at my limit. … I just got my official MCAT score back this week and I am proud to say I made it out with a 511 overall and a 126 C/P!

  I had done all the content review and practice tests necessary to succeed, but was still not reaching my target score. I consider myself a good test taker, but this was getting ridiculous.

  I first emailed the MedLife Mastery Team in a total panic. I may have started with a 493, but I had my eye on a 512. Months dragged on and I shot up passed the 500 mark, then the 505 mark, but then that's where it all stopped short. I bounced around the 503-505 range for a few weeks and eventually was at my limit.

  Less than a month away from my test day, I started looking up tutors like my life depended on it. I even started to compromise my dream score, asking them if a 510 was even feasible for me at this stage.

  That's when they assigned me to my tutor, who helped to calm the heck down. Not only did he help me with my problem areas and send me high-yield equation sheets, he helped me understand that what was really holding me back was my mental hang up on C/P.

  I was out of mind angry that this one section was going to blow my chances at almost every medical school I was interested in, despite me hammering it into my head for months on end.

  My tutor helped me to see the math for what it is... my score started to skyrocket. I just got my official MCAT score back this week and I am proud to say I made it out with a 511 overall and a 126 C/P!

  Thank you guys! You came in clutch when I needed you most.

  I was very skeptical when I decided to buy the MedLife Mastery course, but I am not anymore. Not only does this guide give you actual tips and tricks that you can choose from. It also teaches other skills you will not find in other MCAT prep books... I've seen my score increase in every section.

  My biggest struggle has been with CARS, but with their guide and practicing every single day not only has my score improved. It's also become less daunting. In fact, sometimes I've even come to enjoy reading the passages and treating it like a puzzle. With their help, I know this is the last time I will be taking this test! 4 weeks out and I'm scoring in the 507-512 range!

  UPDATE: Post-MCAT review - 513

  Noah G.498 → to 510A 12-point improvement in one month

  Before I started meeting with a MedLife Mastery Tutor, my study schedule was very messy. … These resources helped me improve me score by 12 points in one month.

  Before I started meeting with a MedLife Mastery Tutor, my study schedule was very messy. I had no structure and would just study as much as I felt like doing. I was still spending a lot of time studying, but I was not doing the right things. I am a 24 year old who just recently graduated from College. This was an extremely stressful time.

  I have never been a good test taker and really struggled with the time pressure. Additionally, I often found myself second guessing myself and changing answers.

  One thing that really helped me was that my tutor actually pulled up the AAMC question bank and would read a passage out loud and I was able to hear what the thought process of my tutor was. For me that was like okay now I understand how you tackle these questions, what to highlight, and how not to get bogged down... For me that really simplified things.

  My tutor helped me with rewording the question and understand what is at the root of it, and that is something that helped me a ton. It also showed me that you didn't always necessarily need to know how to solve the problem but there are certain clues that you can use, if you knew enough of your content, to get an idea of how to narrow your answer choices.

  My tutor also helped me with feeling confident... Before using the MedLife Mastery resources my CARS scores were very inconsistent. This was very frustrating for me. I found that often times I would go back and change some of my answers. If you are struggling with CARS section I would definitely recommend the CARS Mastery Course or getting a MedLife Mastery Tutor.

  These two things greatly helped me improve my score and I am sure the same would be true for you.

  I was so desperate for anything that might help. Someone had mentioned that this was a good, affordable resource and they were spot on! The MedLife Mastery tutoring and courses are so encouraging and helpful. I wish I would have found this resource earlier in my study. These resources helped me improve me score by 12 points in one month.

  The emails contained real success stories from students who’ve taken the MCAT, which gave me the boost I needed to push on with my MCAT prep.

  First of all, these emails reminded me that I wasn't alone in having to deal with my frustrating MCAT score plateau. I realized that there are so many students who went through and overcame the same struggles as me and just knowing that gave me motivation to keep working harder.

  I also realized that the biggest contributor to my MCAT score plateau was that I wasn’t reviewing my tests as I should be. I would just see that I got a question wrong, write down the fact that it was wrong, and simply move on.

  When in reality, the most important part about the MCAT is your understanding of the questions that they’re asking, not so much about the content, but why the correct answer was right.

  The MedLife Mastery Strategy course really showed me how to review the test , how to look over it carefully, and how to really spend time finding what’s wrong and why it’s wrong. It made me better at understanding the test and I’d like to think that’s when I saw my score boost back up to a 510.

  Hope C.492 practice, 500 official → to 514From 5 right per CARS passage to 8 or 9

  It helped me realize how much reading a CARS passage a day could actually pay off. I went from getting 5/9 right per day to 8/9 or 9/9 right per day.

  The Top Scorer MCAT Strategy Guide really helped me adjust my attitude towards the exam. It helped me realize many of the things I mentioned previously: the MCAT isn't something to be feared but a challenge and an opportunity!

  The first time taking the exam I was dependent upon just having a photographic memory, but that doesn’t cut it for the MCAT.

  You can't just memorize the material (other than the amino acids, definitely make sure you have those under your belt- all parts of it, the single letter code, three-letter code, structure, group, everything!), rather, you have to be able to understand the information and apply it and I believe that the MCAT Strategy Guide helped me do just that!

  Additionally, the CARS Mastery program, in my opinion, is a must. It helped me realize how much reading a CARS passage a day could actually pay off. I went from getting 5/9 right per day to 8/9 or 9/9 right per day. I think something that really stood out to me is the trick to read every passage as if your best friend wrote it.

  If your best friend wrote it, you are automatically going to be more interested. I literally started every passage by saying "You are going to love this passage because [insert friend's name] wrote."

  Both the Top Scorer MCAT Strategy Guide and CARS Mastery are great resources. They both cut straight to the information you need and do not waste your time with fluff. It is arguably the best resource I have found on the MCAT and I really wish that I would have used it on my first time taking the MCAT.

  The MedLife Mastery Team really knows how to get the best bang for your buck and I have recommended it to everyone I know who is planning on taking the MCAT.

  The MedLife Mastery strategies sent via email were immensely helpful. One of the reasons they were helpful was they had strategies and approaches to the exam and to studying that I never would've figured out in a million years. These emails were also helpful because they helped me formalize and improve on strategies that I figured out on my own (sometimes without realizing that I was doing it).

  After the disappointment of my first MCAT, I continued studying using a self-paced course from TPR. I doubled my efforts and began spending more time (10 hours per day instead of 7 or 8), but after another 2 months went by without any significant increase in score, I felt defeated.

  My fiancé was the one who suggested trying MedLife Mastery. I had actually heard of it really early on in my prep, but I assumed it was a hoax. (Guaranteed score improvement as such a low cost? No way.) But as soon as I bought the Top Scorer MCAT Strategy Guide and began receiving their wonderfully encouraging and advice-loaded emails, I realized how wrong I had been.

  With only 1 month left before my second MCAT, I was already deeply focused. I followed the guide's advice about how to prepare in the last month of your study, and I began to see my score increase by several points each time!

  MedLife Mastery helped me achieve a competitive score on the exam, and bolstered my confidence along the way. Throughout my studies, I used a variety of resources including an expensive prep course.

  But, the success I had working one-on-one with my tutor was much greater than any instruction I had prior. Not only did he share his knowledge about exam content with me, but his teaching methods made the material stick.

  We reviewed numerous strategies for interpreting difficult passages as well. The emails also provided me with encouragement throughout my journey. I would definitely recommend MedLife Mastery’s services to anyone who is taking the MCAT!

  I took the MCAT two years ago, largely by myself, and when I decided to retake the exam, I knew I needed some outside perspective and guidance. I've consulted and paid for nearly half a dozen tutors, vendors, and resources, and the MedLife Mastery team is far and away the best.

  The individual tutors I worked with - I think five or six - had all recently taken the exam and excelled. If it wasn't a good fit, or I needed to pivot to focus on a different aspect of the exam, the office staff had no issue matching me with another tutor.

  The office staff has also been incredibly understanding with changes to my timeline, and understood what I needed individually as a student. They are responsive and polite, and the services are an incredible value.

  I can't recommend MedLife Mastery highly enough, and my only regret is that I wish I'd found them sooner and not wasted my time and money with other companies.

  Lindsay P.503 practice → to 513Two jobs, self studying, and a 513

  I didn't believe I could raise my score 7+ points while holding two jobs in that time frame, so I extended my testing date. This was definitely beneficial, as I scored a 510 on NS#6, 508 on AAMC#2, scaled 513 on AAMC Sample, and then a 516 on AAMC#3.

  I used both your Strategy Guide and CARS Mastery Report. At such a cheap price, these documents were not only helpful in my direct MCAT studying, but also extremely motivating.

  As a full-time working self-studier (and a retired competitive athlete), I REALLY appreciated in all the encouragement in all of your documents and emails. Ending each email with "You got this" is such a nice thing to see even from people I've never met.

  The CARS report was helpful and I immediately noticed improvements in my AAMC CARS question pack scores. I think finding your team after I was feeling extremely discouraged was a blessing. I love how you seem to connect with us through pages and really shine light onto this whole process when someone is feeling most vulnerable.

  Writing this now, I am realizing how much I relied on this community for support as I definitely feel I owe a lot of my success (or at least the fact that I did not spiral into a pit of anxiety) to MedLife Mastery!

  With a more comprehensive understanding of the process, I was able to score a 508 on the NS FL#5, but the following week, I scored a 503 on AAMC #1. At this point, I was well into studying and was planning on testing in 3-4 weeks.

  Through reading the MedLife Mastery Guide, I realized that small changes in my approach to taking the exam could lead to big changes in my score. By writing down my goal score on post-it notes everyday, reassuring myself in my abilities through verbal and written affirmations, and reminding myself to enjoy a stress-free life in the meantime, I gained the confidence I needed to improve my score.

  I really needed a boost with CARS since I was consistently scoring low on that. I actually wish I had found MedLife Mastery earlier because after reading and watching CARS dissection videos, I started to see some improvements.

  Generally though, the idea of keeping a notebook, making meaningful flash cards, doing intense practice runs, and making sure to repeat AAMC material, all came from the MedLife Mastery strategy guides.

  It also really helped me to start thinking like a top scorer and getting into the right frame of mind. I started going on a run or walk everyday, eating better and sleeping well. I started thinking and approaching the whole process like a top scorer, seeing the big picture and having concepts jump out at me while I read passages. MedLife Mastery really helped with that.

  If you’re thinking about buying and downloading the resources, you should! By the time I got through the strategies I reaffirmed to myself that I could do this and that I was born to do this. Also the daily emails I received on inspirational MCAT journeys really kept me going through the process.
