Zarif Kazi Resident Physician

MD graduate with 246 on Step 1, 253 on Step 2 CK, and 240 on Step 3. Services include one-on-one instruction, UWorld review sessions, test-taking strategies, and practice exam reviews (NBME, UWorld, or Free 120). I also create custom presentations to help supplement the tutoring sessions if the student has difficulty understanding a particular topic.

The goal of my tutoring is to help individuals improve their performance on the exams and ultimately pass the test in order to become licensed medical practitioners in the United States. In addition, I like to provide students with moral support during their preparation as the mental side of this process is just as difficult as the academic side. I am open to offering mentorship beyond STEP exams such as for residency applications.

Previously as a tutor, I assisted students in understanding and mastering the material in specific subject areas, specifically Biochemistry, Cardiovascular, Endocrine, Renal, Gastroenterology, Microbiology, and Biostatistics. I also helped students develop study skills and strategies to improve their overall academic performance. I typically worked with students at all levels of their medical education. Overall, my experience as a tutor has been extremely rewarding, as I have been able to help students achieve their academic goals and see their confidence and knowledge grow.

I want to help you meet and exceed your target scores whether it be Step 1, Step 2 CK, Step 3 or shelf exams. I really hope we get the opportunity to work together!
