COVID-19 UPDATE

Based on the advice of public health officials and our own concerns about the well-being of students and instructors, we’ve decided to move everything to the safety of online course delivery.

It was a difficult decision but we believe it is the responsible thing to do amid a resurgent pandemic with proliferating variants of concern.

Better Prep. Better Scores.

A different approach to MCAT prep.

How guided practice
builds success.

Boost your score by 15 points
Boost your score by 15 points

86% of Prep101 students improve their MCAT score by 10 or more points, with an average increase of 15.

We surveyed students who took our live online prep courses in the summer of 2022. Their average score improvement of 15.4 points was calculated by comparing the results of diagnostic tests in the first week of the courses to scores on official MCATs after the courses.

  • 24% improved by 20 or more points
  • 57% improved by 15 or more points
  • 86% improved by 10 or more points
  • Average official MCAT score was 510 (77th percentile)

Note: Anyone who had previously written the MCAT or completed less than 50% of coursework was not included.

The brightest minds in the business.

We hand-pick the very best of the very best to teach Live Online Prep Courses - including our Lead Instructor in each MCAT subject.
