Along with a 3.9 college GPA, I was a National Merit Scholarship Finalist in high school and achieved a 2240 on the old-style SATs. I excelled in my AP exams (5'... (read more)
...This included an emphasis on statics and understanding how physics concepts interacted with mechanical design. I believe that building a solid understanding of the fundamentals and directly connecting those fundamentals to test-style problems is critical to success in topics that can otherwise seem daunting. This approach also allows students to make real progress at any level. (read more)
...I majored in physics and electrical engineering at MIT, graduating in the top 5%, and stayed on at MIT for the master's and doctoral program in EECS. I've successfully tutored several students at various universities to prepare for physics and physical sciences aspects of the MCAT. All indicated that I'm one of the best tutors or instructors in the physical sciences they've ever had. (read more)
