About Marcus
Pre-med students often struggle to connect the dots between theoretical chemistry concepts and the reality of the MCAT. You need a mentor who understands the precise AAMC exam logic that trips up most candidates during testing. I hold a Doctor of Medicine from UCSF and draw on 6 years of experience to clarify complex topics.
My technical expertise covers amines, carbonyl chemistry, functional groups, stereochemistry, and IUPAC nomenclature. I also guide students through curved-arrow notation, IR and mass spectrometry, isomerism, mechanism drawing, and retrosynthesis. Seeing a student finally grasp a difficult reaction pathway is honestly the most satisfying part of my workday.

You will find that my sessions prioritize active problem solving rather than passive reading of textbooks. You work through problems while I provide real-time corrections to refine your chemical intuition and technical speed.
I rely on my 6 years of experience to ensure we cover the high-yield mechanisms that frequently appear on exams. I also provide custom reaction summary sheets to help you organize your study materials effectively. These documents serve as a roadmap for your revision process and keep your focus on essential patterns. My approach aims to build your fluency so that you can navigate difficult questions with clarity and confidence during your actual testing day.
