Highly recommended

I had a tutor BEFORE Sean that I worked with for about 1.5 months, but I kept plateauing on my Step 2 score in the 200-220s and eventually this tutor gave up on me and left me to pick up the pieces. It was devastating for someone who scored in the 99th percentile telling me I should just consider not taking Step 2. Then I met Sean who was an absolute godsend. He gave me the structure I needed to keep a strict schedule and focused me on evidence based methods for test-taking that would eventually help me boost my score. At this low point, I needed someone understanding, motivating, and passionate at teaching. After I spent most of my savings on my first tutor, I was running at the rock bottom of my bank account, but Sean was still able to accommodate my financial situation to help me get the tutoring I know I needed to eventually score 249 on Step 2 1.5 mo later. It has been an absolute blessing to have known and learned under Sean, and I would recommend him to anyone without reserve.

Excellent Investment

This is my 5th session with Sean. He is an excellent and very very knowledgeable tutor who patiently explains the information. He continues to present the information in a manner that I can understand and in a way that it 'sticks.' He is soo good. The test taking strategies that he throws in there are really helping me toward my goals. I look forward to more sessions and to achieving my goals with Sean's help. If I could give him 10 stars I would!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had a really great experience with The Boards Professor and honestly can’t recommend the team enough! Sean is incredibly available and truly invested in your success. He takes the time to understand your specific strengths, weaknesses, and schedule, and then helps you build a testing strategy that actually fits you instead of giving a generic plan. It never feels rushed — he really works with you and makes himself accessible whenever you need direction or reassurance.

Sahith was amazing for reinforcing concepts in a visual and practical way! He's great at turning complicated material into diagrams and mental frameworks that actually stick. He also helped me a lot with managing testing anxiety and learning how to slow down and approach questions more calmly and methodically, which made a huge difference for me.

Alex’s biostatistics teaching style really stood out! She breaks down Biostats in a way you’ve probably never been taught before — but honestly should have been. Instead of just throwing formulas at you to memorize, she focuses on making sure you truly understand what you’re doing and why. That approach made it so much easier to apply concepts to new questions instead of freezing or second-guessing myself.

Overall, the program feels very personalized and supportive 🙂 You’re not just another student - the instructors genuinely care about your progress, your confidence, and helping you reach your goals! Leading up to my exam, it felt like I had a team in my corner the whole time 🙂

Sean and Sahith changed the trajectory of my entire career. What can I say? I was struggling profoundly with my Step prep when a classmate recommended this tutoring service to me. I was struggling to achieve passing scores for Step 1. I subsequently scheduled a initial consult phone call with Sean. He took ample time out to understand why I wasn't getting the scores I needed to pass, and also to triage issues in how I was studying for the exam. After listening to understand what I had already tried during dedicated, he handcrafted a study schedule and approach for me to see a real change in my scores. He took all the guesswork out of which materials to focus on, how to divide up my time, and how to reinforce my weak areas...based off the data of what is statistically needed to raise scores. He broke down concepts in a way that finally made me understand what I was being tested on rather than relying on rote memorization of random facts to raise my score. I trusted his process and it paid off profoundly. With his help, I was able to pass Step 1 with ease.

By the time I took Step 2, I had to balance studying with a rigorous and demanding sub-I rotation schedule. I would often feel too tired to study thoroughly after long days in clinic. There were several weeks where I didn't have enough time to logistically do a lot of UWorld questions or review my weak areas independently as planned. I started to get nervous. At this time, I decided to reach back out to get tutoring help. I began working with Sahith to cover concepts. His breakdown of concepts made a world of difference in my prep. After meeting with him consistently, I saw a large 35 point jump from my practice scores in a mere few weeks. I couldn't believe it. There were concepts that I really only had time to cover during our tutoring sessions, and yet his explanations were so thorough that it was sufficient for me to understand and remember on test day. I couldn't ask for a better, more thoughtful, tutor. He also goes above and beyond to address wellness, tackling test-taking anxiety, and meditation to help with test day jitters. The real deal sometimes has impossibly difficult or time consuming questions that make you panic or doubt your knowledge base. It was during those questions or blocks that I relied on the techniques Sahith gave me to stay calm through it all. I was nervous to get my score back 2 weeks later, only to see I had exceeded my predicted score by 12 points.

If you don't make any other decision regarding your step prep, make sure you book with the Boards Professor. It's the best money I've ever spent in my medical career. They address content/knowledge gaps, test-taking strategies to help you think like the test writers, as well as how to structure your study time (even with other responsibilities like rotations/work/research), and wellness during an often challenging time like dedicated. I never imagined my step journey playing out like this, and I couldn't have done it without their help. I can't recommend their tutoring enough.

When I first began preparing for my COMLEX Level 2 retake, I was overwhelmed, defeated, and unsure of how to move forward. After failing my initial attempt with a 361, I knew I needed a different approach. Unfortunately, I didn't know where to start and had lost confidence in my ability to objectively assess my learning and progress.

Finding Sean and Sahith through Wyzant was the turning point that changed everything.

Together, they helped me rebuild from the ground up. They didn’t just reteach medical content - they restructured the way I studied and the way I thought about the exam. From Anki scheduling to question dissection, from managing cognitive fatigue to mastering weak systems like cardiology, hematology, immunology, and renal - they taught me how to study with purpose and test with confidence.

What made their tutoring so effective was the consistency, structure, and accountability they provided. We met 1–2 times per week for 60 to 90 minutes, and every session felt productive and forward-moving. Between sessions, they were still checking in and available to answer questions, offer reassurance, or give a push when I needed it. Every meeting began with a review of my Anki logs and question bank progress, keeping me grounded in daily discipline.

They also taught me specific strategies for approaching questions - especially those where I felt completely lost. These techniques saved time and mental energy on test day, especially when fatigue set in during the final blocks. Their guidance helped me preserve both accuracy and pacing. Just as importantly, they helped me maintain morale during long study days, reminding me of progress when all I could see were gaps.

Their teaching styles complemented each other well: one often focusing on fine-tuning content gaps, while the other emphasized mental approach and test logic. They created a safe, non-judgmental learning environment where mistakes became stepping stones. I trusted that what I got wrong with them would become what I got right on test day.

The results speak for themselves:

Initial baseline score: 361
After 5 weeks of tutoring: 470
After 7 weeks of tutoring: 510
Official COMLEX Level 2 score after 9 weeks of tutoring: 563

Working with Sean and Sahith was the best academic decision I’ve made in medical school. I owe them more than just a passing score - I owe them a sense of confidence and competence I hadn’t felt in a long time. If you're lost, struggling, or just need expert structure, these are the tutors you need.

I recently had the pleasure of working with The Boards Professor tutoring services to study for my USMLE Step 2CK exam and I can confidently say that it was one of the best decisions. From the initial consultation to the last session, the entire process was flexible, professional, and extremely effective.

The tutors are not only highly knowledgeable but also incredibly patient and supportive. Sean and Sahith took the time to assess my learning style and adjusted each session to suit my needs. I was particularly impressed with how they pinpointed my strengths and weaknesses, simplifying complex concepts into manageable steps to make sure I fully understood the material before moving forward.

Sean is incredibly passionate about teaching and goes above and beyond to help his students. From our very first conversation, it was clear that he genuinely cares about his students' success and is dedicated to helping them reach their goals. He consistently checked in with me to review my progress, always making sure that I was on track. What really stood out was how he challenged me to trust my instincts and believe in myself. This encouragement made a huge difference in my confidence, and I’m so grateful for the way he pushed me to reach my full potential.

Sahith was extremely patient, reassuring and calm throughout our sessions. No matter how many times I needed to go over the same topic, he never hesitated to revisit it until I fully understood the material. What I appreciated most was how Sahith helped me trust my own knowledge. He encouraged me to believe in my abilities and taught me techniques for staying calm and focused during test prep. This mindset shift was a game-changer during practice exams and ultimately helped me approach the real test with a clearer, more confident mindset.

Whether I needed support with mastering USMLE Step 2CK concepts, calming my nerves, or prepping for residency interviews, the tutors were always available whenever I needed them. Thanks to their guidance, I saw a significant improvement in my practice exams and gained much more confidence in my academic abilities. I highly recommend The Boards Professor to anyone looking for personalized and high-quality tutoring for the USMLE exams!

I can’t thank Board Professors, especially Sean and Sahith, enough for everything they did to help me finally pass Step 1. After struggling through multiple attempts, I came into this last one carrying so much weight, anxiety, and self-doubt. But from the very beginning, they made me feel confident, composed, and fully supported.

What truly set them apart was their personal investment in my success. Sean and Sahith took the time to work with me one-on-one, breaking down challenging concepts, teaching me high-yield strategies, and helping me build the mindset I needed to perform on exam day. They checked in on me throughout the week without me even having to ask, making sure I stayed on track and felt prepared. I was also able to send them questions anytime, and they always responded thoughtfully and quickly.

Walking into my final attempt, I finally felt prepared, calm, and in control—and I owe that entirely to their guidance, dedication, and encouragement. Passing Step 1 has been such a huge milestone for me, and I wouldn’t be here without them.

If you’re struggling, uncertain, or just want the best preparation possible, Board Professors is the team you want in your corner. They don’t just teach you medicine; they believe in you until you believe in

I had the pleasure of working with Sean and Sahith while preparing for my Level 2 exam, and I couldn't have asked for better tutors. They were incredibly helpful, tailoring the study sessions to my specific needs and ensuring I fully understood the material. Their responsiveness was top-notch, as they always got back to me as soon as they could, making me feel supported throughout the entire process.

As my exam approached, I was a nervous wreck, but Sean and Sahith helped me stay calm and reassured me every step of the way. Near the end of my studying, burnout started to hit hard, but they kept me motivated and were patient with me, which made all the difference.

I would absolutely recommend them to anyone struggling to create a study plan or in need of a content boost. Their guidance and encouragement made a stressful process so much more manageable, and I’m beyond grateful for their support!

I truly couldn’t have passed Step without Sean and Sahith’s support. They gave me practical techniques and a clear way to approach questions that completely changed how I think about exams, and it’s something I’ll keep using going forward.

They also helped me focus my energy on the most important information instead of getting lost in everything else. Just as important, they were a real support system for me through the whole prep process.

I can’t say enough good things about working with them, it was honestly a game changer for me!

Sean and Sahith were instrumental in helping me turn things around after my Step 1 fail. I had just one month to prepare for my retake, and with their guidance, I passed. They quickly identified my weak areas, helped me improve them efficiently, and gave me practical exam strategies that made a real difference. Beyond that, their accountability, support, and encouragement kept me focused and confident throughout the process. I tell everyone studying for a medical board exam about The Boards Professor & will be using them for Step 2!

Sahith and Sean were both great! They helped me look at questions from a different perspective and use Anki properly.

When students are struggling it also helps to have an ally and both were very supportive and nonjudgmental. It helped me mentally to know I had support and I got the score I wanted today!

Amazing Tutor, Amazing Mentor, Amazing Future Doctor

Sean is an INCREDIBLE tutor. He’s tutored me for many sessions now. He is a master at breaking down difficult concepts, and his knowledge never seizes to impress me. He’s absolutely brilliant - not to mention very kind. Not only can he help you with any material you throw at him, but he will also work with you on your test taking strategies and your schedule - even your motivation! He’s a true gem. I didn’t even know it’s possible to find a tutor like him! You’re the best, Sean!!! Thank you for all you do 🙂

I highly recommend Sean to anyone who is taking USMLE!

I was very fortunate to have found Sean. I had tried another tutoring service ( big name company) before I came to Wyzant, but Sean’s tutoring was far better in quality and value for money. It was evident from day one that he is an excellent and gifted tutor. I was also impressed by his knowledge, experience, and passion to teach. Here are some highlights of what I liked about his tutoring: advice on study strategy based on research findings ( evidence based), immediate feedback on my test taking skills, clear and concise explanation on challenging concepts, objective yet always positive feedback, available for questions even outside of sessions, guidance on prioritizing tasks. I studied with Sean for one month and was able to strengthen my test taking skills and knowledge base, also build confidence to go into exam. Towards the end, I started enjoying MCQ which I always hated before. I highly recommend Sean to anyone who is taking USMLE and learn how to manage this beast-I am positive you would be grateful that you did.

Knowledgeable and supportive tutor

What Sean helped me with the most was providing me with different techniques I could use to approach a question and find the answer even if I wasn't 100% confident. These tips helped give me more tools when approaching a question, and gave me more confidence. He was also helpful in coming up with a realistic and flexible schedule for my dedicated time before the USMLE and COMLEX. Definitely would recommend Sean as a tutor!

Amazing Tutor!

Sean is an amazing tutor! I would recommend him to any student struggling with board prep (especially if you do not have much time left). I made more progress with him in just 2 months then I made by myself in an entire year. He will give you a study schedule that really works! He is very knowledgeable on what resources to use and how to use them based off real research and stats. He is a great teacher and even made himself available to answer questions I had outside of our sessions. I was impressed with how easy he made topics that I previously struggled with mastering. I would give him 10/10 stars and plan on hiring him again for future tests!

UWorld from 40s to 72% average, STEP 1 PASSED!!!!

Sean gave me the right tools to get consistently high practice scores! I was in a terrible place, not knowing what to do about my performance at school and decided to shoot one last shot with a tutor. Sean right off the bat was incredibly encouraging. He directed my mental space and focus in the right direction and I can truly say that the way he has taught me to study is like nothing I have ever done before. We covered everything from nitty-gritty material, to decisive test-taking habits. I wish I had reached out sooner for help, because I was struggling with consistent 40s on my UWorld blocks; I cannot explain how dead-end that feeling was. But then redoing my entire daily schedule with Sean, and hashing out countless tutoring sessions, I was shocked to see my scores hitting 80s and sometimes 90s! Really, Sean came in and made my entire studying advance forward like nothing I've ever academically experienced before. The Lord truly was gracious with me and allowed me to meet Sean; I am beyond blessed to have met Sean when I did.

I had a really great experience with The Boards Professor. After failing my board exam, I didn’t know how to move forward, but they helped me create a clear step by step plan and stayed on top of me the whole time. Their content knowledge is is like no other, but what helped me more was how they worked on my mindset and test taking strategy. They were always available if I had questions. I mean I could send screenshots of Amboss or any questions and get quick explanations without having to wait for the next session. I would definitely 100% recommend them to anyone serious about passing their boards or increasing their score!

I took Comlex Lvl3 three times and failed. I was a PGY-2 and was unable to secure a contract for my 3rd year as a resident. To make things worse, I had a 3 year gap between medical school and securing a residency. To put things into perspective, my last completed board exam was back in 2019, pre-COVID, making it a 5 year test taking gap between the 2 exams. Sean was recommended to me by a fellow resident at my hospital, where he found a lot of success with him. I was hoping he could fix some of the issues that I had. We had 2 months to prep for Lvl 3 for my 4th time. We had one session per week. We had more sessions as the test date closed in.

I was quite weak in statistics so I had to confer with Alex as well, which was completely worth it. It was a quick 2 hour sessions that covered the majority of stats questions.

Through Sean, I was able to found out that my problem wasn’t really test taking anxiety or knowledge gaps(been studying for this exam for almost a year), I was missing a systemic approach to answering these questions and ultimately conquering the exam. Sean was able to rectify the issues and help me build the confidence to ultimately pass the exam.

My advice to other people who would inquire his services: you should texting him 24/7 about anything and everything.

If you want to see real results, work with Sean. Investing in tutoring with him was hands down one of the best decisions I've made in my academic career and I cannot recommend him highly enough. I will not be taking another board exam without his guidance. I'm writing this because I chose Sean due to an outstanding review, which I can now say was entirely accurate, and if you need help I'm telling you that he's your guy.

I began working with Sean 9 weeks before COMLEX Level 1. At the time, my practice scores were low, I had zero confidence, and my test-taking strategy was honestly terrible. From our very first session, Sean was in my corner — I could tell that he genuinely wanted me to succeed and that he genuinely believed that he could help me succeed. He created a personalized study schedule (having someone plan and create a schedule for me was HUGE), helped me set up my Anki, identified knowledge gaps, and introduced a test-taking strategy that noticeably boosted my performance within just a few sessions. I went from making 30% on uworld blocks to 60-70% in a matter of weeks.

What stood out to me is how accessible and encouraging he is. Sean gave me his phone number and urged me to reach out with questions every day. His belief in me helped me build confidence in myself almost immediately — which was something I desperately needed.

I’ll be working with Sean again for COMLEX Level 2 and every exam that follows. If you buy in to his process and take his advice seriously, you’ll see dramatic improvement just like I did.

I don’t even know where to begin! Sean and Alex are by far the best tutors I’ve ever worked with. I found them at a time when I desperately needed help with COMLEX Level 2. It was a “make or break” moment, and after being hesitant for a while, I decided to seek tutoring because, as someone who's generally shy about asking for help, I knew I couldn’t do it on my own. I can say with complete certainty that I wouldn’t have overcome my hurdles without them.

I felt incredibly comfortable working with both of them. They make an excellent team. They communicate regularly about your progress, so by the time a session starts, they’re both up to date with everything about you. Their communication with me was consistent and effective, and I never felt ignored or dismissed. They’re always checking in to make sure you’re doing well, keeping up with you every step of the way.

What stood out most was how they tailored their approach to my individual needs. They took the time to figure out what wasn’t working for me when I couldn’t pinpoint the issue myself. During sessions, they are fully present and focused, making every moment feel valuable. Their support pushed me to give my best, and their teaching strategies were unlike anything I had learned in the years of studying before. I finished each session feeling like I had learned something new and that I would be able to use it in the future.

They teach in a way that helps you retain the material, making the learning process feel very personalized. As time passed, I could see clear improvements in my understanding and confidence. I truly recommend reaching out to them if you need assistance. I learned more than I ever expected, and I’m already looking forward to future sessions with them. For anyone hesitant, don’t be!

Sean and Alex are the best tutors I have ever worked with. Not only did they help me come up with a study method that actually worked for me after multiple failed attempts at Level 1, but they made themselves accessible every day for any questions I had or any life difficulties that got in the way of studying. They were confident in me when I couldn’t build that confidence in myself, and ultimately I am able to continue on my journey to becoming a physician because of them. Out of all the tutoring platforms/bootcamp programs I tried in the past, Sean and Alex blow everyone else out of the water. Absolutely worth every penny!

I met with Sean for a month and I'm so so so grateful for him. I was really struggling with STEP 1 and was 2 weeks out. Sean quickly helped me realize the gaps in my knowledge, and in one breath helped me fill them. He built a sustainable study schedule for me, kept me accountable, and helped me improve my test-taking strategies.

He's down to earth, hilarious, and really boosted my confidence (along with Nicki Minaj's entire discography, of course). Just got my pass last week! Couldn't have done it without him and I cannot emphasize enough how amazing he is at teaching! Thanks Sean 🙂

Sean is amazing. He showed me a systematic way of analyzing and answering multiple choice questions. He was friendly and approachable. Easy to learn from and I felt comfortable asking any questions I had. He went above and beyond the role of a standardized test tutor by making sure I was supported not only with maintaining my knowledge for the exam but ensuring that I was mentally prepared. He checked up on me frequently leading up to the exam. I know that I will take the skills I have learned from him with me throughout residency.

Sean is truly THE go-to person if you’re preparing for boards. He goes above and beyond in every possible way—providing guidance, reassurance, and practical strategies throughout the entire process. You never feel alone when working with him; he is consistently supportive and even makes himself available on test day, which speaks volumes about how much he genuinely cares about your success and well-being.

He took me on just three weeks before my exam, during a particularly difficult time when I was trying to balance major personal life milestones alongside a demanding work schedule and studying for boards. In those three weeks, my studying became far more streamlined and efficient, and my confidence grew significantly. He is exceptional at steering you toward the most high-yield resources and question banks while teaching practical, effective test-taking strategies that truly work. I genuinely would not have been able to do this without his help.

If you are ever in doubt about getting a tutor and want someone who truly cares about your well-being and your goal to pass, don’t miss the opportunity to work with Sean. He is simply the best. I am so grateful I found him while prepping for my boards.

Knowledgable and more than just a tutor

When I first started working with Sean, I was 6 weeks out from Step 1 and pretty unsure if I was on track to passing. From the very first meeting with Sean, I felt right away that he had a well-honed philosophy for test preparation and was ready to help me develop a plan to get ready. Literally the first time we spoke, my confidence began to grow because he not only had a well-thought out approach to helping me prepare but he also understood the health challenges I was dealing with and genuinely cared about how he could best help me navigate those in preparing for Step 1. Every time I worked with Sean, he not only was teaching me great test-taking skills and doing helpful content review for problem areas, but he was building up my confidence that I could not only pass the exam, but do well on it. Sean makes you feel like you've got a great partner behind you the whole time and I saw fairly quickly great improvements in my practice exam scores. By the time I took the exam, I felt so much more confident in my abilities and even when I had last minute test-anxiety, Sean was there to reassure me that the work we had done would pay off and in the end, he was exactly right and I scored well on Step 1. To give you some insight into how crucial some of the test-taking lessons Sean taught me, some of the strategies I remembered during a critical part of my exam when I was mentally worn out. I literally could hear Sean's advice in my head, and I am convinced this was just one example of how the test-taking skills he taught me were a key part of my success on test day. Bottom line is, if you're struggling with test preparation, just want additional support, or need a lot of help with any subject area, I am telling you, run and don't walk to sign up to work with Sean, you will not regret it.
