Why Enhanced Prep?
Many tutoring companies claim that they can help students increase their test scores, but very few can support those claims and almost none of them focus on a student's ultimate goal - getting into their dream school. Nowadays, it takes more than a single strong test score to get into college. Students have got to have the grades and the test scores and then some. At Enhanced Prep, we provide a truly customizable approach to tutoring, focusing on each student's specific needs. We match students with the right tutor who can help them study for a biology test one day and prep for their upcoming college entrance exam the next.

Online MCAT Tutors at Enhanced Prep
At Enhanced Prep, we pride ourselves on constant and consistent communication between the student, tutor and parents; our online MCAT tutoring is no exception. The MCAT, or Medical College Admissions Test, is a widely-used exam that assesses whether or not candidates possess sufficient knowledge to begin their studies in medical programs. The content included in this assessment includes but is not limited to biology and biochemistry of organisms, human behavior, chemistry and physics pertaining to natural systems, and analysis and critical thinking. These skills are assessed through 230 selected-response questions, some of which are standalone, with others relying on written passages. A total of 375 minutes are allotted to answer these questions; these 375 minutes are divided into four separate periods in which the four subtests are delivered.
We understand intimately the level of difficulty associated with the MCAT, and thus devote ourselves to focusing on the student's most immediate needs based on their input and when they have exam dates approaching, allowing us to ensure that every student can succeed on test day in as little time as possible. Also, each online MCAT tutor on our team has the experience necessary to develop individual game plans for test-day preparations, including what content they need to focus on the most and what test-taking strategies are best suited for each student. Our success with our methods speaks for itself, as we see that families who used Enhanced Prep will recommend an average of 3 students to us due to their positive experience. Reach out today, and let us begin your journey toward achieving your academic goals.
The MCAT Exam
Because the MCAT is an admissions test for graduate-level medical programs, it follows that this assessment is only taken when candidates are prepared to enter into these programs of study. Upon the successful completion of the exam, test-takers can send their scores to prospective universities, where they can then be applied toward larger applications to gain admission. Students are not required to complete a Bachelor's degree to take the MCAT, however, but should complete introductory courses that will likely cover all of the information tested on the MCAT. This includes general biology, chemistry, physics, psychology, sociology, biochemistry, and research methods.
Frequently Asked Questions
How should I prepare for the MCAT?
When preparing for the MCAT, students should ensure, above all else, that they begin well before their testing dates. The exam covers a lot of material, so candidates need plenty of time to review it. Also, having an organized study plan to manage this time and get the most benefit possible is highly beneficial. This can best be achieved through the online MCAT help of our professional tutors, all of whom are equipped with the ability to identify where students are struggling most to determine where they need to focus their study efforts.
Is the MCAT hard?
The MCAT assesses students' knowledge of various health- and medicine-related subjects at an introductory college level, and thus is considered a relatively advanced assessment. These include core concepts of biology and chemistry as they relate to medical science, such as human anatomy and physiology, psychology and sociology. In addition, the exam covers how to work effectively with other professionals and patients. Each tutor on our team can provide students with the MCAT help they need to succeed when their test day arrives.
How many times can I retake the MCAT?
The MCAT may be retaken a maximum of 7 times within any candidate's lifetime, giving some room for error and improvement should applicants fail the exam. However, there are limitations on how often the exam can be retaken, with a maximum of 3 attempts within a single year, and 4 attempts within a two-year period. To get the most out of the time in between attempts, students can seek the help of an MCAT tutor from our team to help them identify where they need to improve the most before their next attempt, ensuring the best possible chance of success when their testing date rolls around.
What can I bring to the MCAT?
When students arrive at their MCAT testing site, they can only have a select list of items. The only required item is a valid, government-issued photo ID. Lockers are provided for the storage of other items allowed in the testing center, but not the testing room, including food and drink, medication, hygiene products, cell phones or any other electronic devices. Electronics cannot be used during breaks, but medications, snacks, drinks, and hygiene products can.
How is the MCAT scored?
A student's overall score on the MCAT is the sum of four individual scores given on the four subtests. Each of the subtests receives a scaled score within a range of 118 to 132, meaning that the total added scores can range from 472 to 528. No specific score is universally considered passing; this value is determined at each institution. The average score is 500, with anything above that generally being considered good. When students receive their score report, they will see their individual subtest scores, overall score, and their percentile rank for that year's testing scores to understand how competitive their score is.
