Ancient Brains Tutoring レビュー 26

Luke's pdf are genuinely so helpful. They are very detailed and explain what is important. I really started understand concepts that were confusing to me from reading the Kaplan books better after reviewing his pdfs. I also love how he has detailed videos explaining how to review his pdfs and his prgessivle checklists and how to make a schedule. He also explains how to review the pdfs and recall them. It is also in line with Uworld which is a big help as Uworld was very important in my learning process. I guarantee that any who genuinely follows his plan and his advice will get a very high score on the mcat. I only which I started it earlier so I could do it the way he does in the schedule breakdown. Highly recommend!!

Luke has taken the dense UWorld textbooks and made them easy to digest. He really emphasizes LEARNING the material and connect dots to the bigger story rather than just memorizing facts. The MCAT is less about rote memorization and more about extracting information from passages and thinking critically about it. The UWorld questions help fill in some of the gaps. I am confident that I will do well on my MCAT because of Luke's content. He is very responsive when I have questions and explains it in a way that I can understand. 10/10 recommend.

Luke helped me improve my CARS score on my MCAT from a 124 to a 129 in just a couple of weeks. He was a great tutor, very responsive, and truly cared about helping me improve. 11/10.

Luke was an incredible MCAT tutor. He was kind, patient, and truly invested in his students’ success. He hosted office hours to review PDF notes and even spent hours rewatching my explanation videos to make sure I fully understood the concepts, not just memorized them. He was smart, nonjudgmental, and great to work with throughout the entire MCAT process. I highly recommend starting his method from the beginning and sticking with it all the way through.

Ancient BRAINS = 10/10

My first time studying, I mistakenly did mcat prep by splitting it into 3 different sections--> Content review, uworld, and AAMC.

Luke has allowed me to see the value in learning just enough, and trusting that uworld will help bridge the content gaps. His mcat pdfs are very straight to the point, and for some subjects, are relatively quicker, in comparison to the Kaplan and Princeton Review books.

I would recommend this 100/100 times.

Amazing tutor who is extremely helpful and very responsive. He takes the time to make sure every concept is fully understood and explains the material clearly and thoroughly. Even beyond the core content, he is great at walking you through anything related to the topic. Highly recommend.

I’ve had an incredible experience with this MCAT tutoring company. From day one, the tutor Luke has made my entire study process more simple and manageable. He takes the time to explain any difficult concepts and all of the questions I have. The resources provided in this program are clear, high-yield, and very easy to read and understand. They are also affordable. The tutor is very supportive and great at teaching. Highly recommend this company!

Luke helped me prepare for my MCAT I recently took this May. Not only does he have outstanding resources that synthesize high-yield content, but he also teaches strategies to retain information. Luke had a flexible schedule that accommodated my busy school and work responsibilities. He was very easy to contact throughout the process. Overall, a great tutor and highly recommend for MCAT tutoring and prep!

I found Luke after two previous MCAT attempts. During the second attempt, my score actually went down, so I knew I needed to do a complete rehaul of my studying for the third attempt. I met with Luke, discussed my previous experiences with the exam, and he created a very detailed study schedule with me, with goals for the content I needed to understand, and he also implemented regular assessments to check for understanding. The PDFs that were associated with his instruction were also very helpful, and the studying techniques he talked about are some that I continue to use today. Luke was a very encouraging, supportive mentor who was dedicated to helping his students succeed and tailoring his teaching to their unique needs. I highly recommend Luke, whether you're looking for guidance on how to start studying or a final push to get your MCAT score where you need it to be.

I cannot recommend Luke and Ancient Brains Tutoring enough! I tried studying for the MCAT with no tutor for about a year and saw almost no improvement no matter how much time I put in. After working with Luke, the guidance, materials and support that he provided me with allowed me to increase 21 points from my first diagnostic to the actual test day. What you can get from Luke and not anywhere else is a 24hr person to text about any problem or question and someone who you can simply ask “do I really need to know this” on those silly low yield problems you might come across rather than spending 2 hours on a Reddit rabbit hole trying to figure out if it is important or not. If you are considering working with Luke, I promise you that you will see wonderful results if you do and I urge everyone reading this to utilize him as an incredible resource. I never thought I would be able to score highly before I met Luke, but on test day I ended up scoring higher than I ever thought was possible.

Luke was a great tutor! I was able to go up 22 points in four months and I wouldn't have been able to do it without him. Luke helped me by condensing high yield material into easy to learn pdfs, using the science of learning/memory to guide my study methods, and providing a wealth of MCAT expertise from his own experience that those of former students. In addition to being an expert on how to memorize content efficiently, Luke was also just great at easing my anxiety and helping my keep a positive attitude. I would absolutely recommend Luke to anyone studying for the MCAT, especially if you've got a short timeline.

Luke was a great tutor! His shortened PDFs allowed me to focus on high yield material and learn it all in a relatively short period of time. Luke was always easily accessible to answer questions over text, and during meetings, he always had clear explanations to my questions and would review difficult concepts with me. I would highly recommend using Luke’s PDFs to study, and my sessions with him were always helpful.

I definitely recommend using Luke as your MCAT tutor. First of all, the shortened PDFs he provides make it way easier to study compared to reading through hundreds of pages of textbook PDFs. He gives you all the high-yield info you need to know, and leaves out the stuff that's a waste of time. He is very encouraging and explains things super well. He is also always available for quick questions over text, which was nice. He helped raise my score 12 points in 3 months, and I think it would have gone up even more with more time.

Luke’s tutoring method was crucial to my success on the MCAT. I jumped 19 points from my first AAMC test to my final score, and jumped 3 points from the last practice exam I took to test day. He is flexible with scheduling and timing, his content includes only the most important/necessary details, he makes sure you get tons of practice with actual test problems, and does not allow you to move on to the next topic without fully understanding the previous one. I think that last piece was the most helpful part of Luke’s tutoring because it made sure that I was able to explain things to myself and without that I wouldn’t be able to apply concepts to the exam.

Luke is an excellent tutor! From our first meeting, I knew he had my best interest in mind and would be able to guide me to success with the MCAT. I especially appreciated his study materials, which made the process of content review much more manageable. He helped me set realistic goals, and worked with me to create a study schedule that fit well with my busy semester. Trust the process, he knows what he's doing. With his help, I improved my score by 18 points from my diagnostic exam in early August to my test in mid-January. I highly recommend him and his materials to anyone preparing for the MCAT!

Luke is the man! He understands not only the content and how to effectively learn the content but also the feelings testers are going through. His tutoring and study techniques are much more effective than any previously tried. He is very flexible and patient. If you are willing to work, he will be right there with you every step. He is honest with feedback and genuinely wants what is best for his students. Very much recommend!

Working with Luke was the highlight of preparing to apply for medical school! He was kind, reassuring and extremely knowledgeable. I could ask Luke any question or discuss any topic big or small and he always had a passionate and confident response. Together, we discovered studying strategies that work best for me and created an efficient study plan tailored to my schedule. Within the first few sessions Luke understood my learning style and adapted his teaching methods to meet my needs. He is also very receptive to feedback and is continuously working to be the best he can be. It was truly a joy to work with him. Without Luke I wouldn’t have been able to raise my 508 to a 518!!

Now that I am in medical school, I still use the invaluable learning strategies that Luke gave me. I even remember a good amount of the material thanks to his teaching which has given me a leg up in my first block.

Luke was unlike other tutors I’ve met. He was untraditional in the best way. He’s developed his own study plan for students, works one on one, and caters to what you need help with. I learned how to study effectively through Luke, and prep properly for the mcat. He is a great tutor!

Luke was instrumental to my MCAT studying. I worked with him twice a week for two-hour sessions and he always made these meetings fun and time to look forward to. We created a comprehensive schedule for a studying method that worked for me and he was very flexible whenever I needed a change. We worked through all the MCAT topics in a way that made studying have as little stress as possible. Luke was an expert on every topic and any question I had was answered with confidence. I was able to score above my goal because of Luke and his amazing help. His positive attitude, humor, and extensive knowledge on all MCAT topics made every meeting fun and productive.

I just finished the process of studying for, taking, and getting my MCAT score back, and Luke was incredibly helpful through it all. He answered all of my questions and concerns promptly and effectively. He was great in one on one meetings, and he is very good at asking questions to make sure you know all of the details that you should. Simultaneously, he verbally recognizes that this is a hard exam to study for, and I never felt judged or put down because I missed a question. He was great about reminding you what you already know and helping you add to it.

His resources that he provides are immensely helpful for content review, and I think he has a great way of scheduling when you should do practice questions and full exams. We used a lot of Uworld questions - which are somewhat expensive just as a disclaimer - but that was hugely helpful to my studying, and Luke really helped me understand how to effectively use that resource.

Overall, I am very satisfied with my experience, and he helped me bring my score from a 511 to a 520!
