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.

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!
Mira Nakhle
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!
Sarah White
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!
Kai de Sequera
Sean and Sahith are prime boards tutors. They really helped me work through the logic of the questions and prioritize my thinking which has helped both with boards and in rotations! Special shputout to Sahith who put in a lot of time helping me through these things. Highly recommend them to anyone who is wanting to sure up their scores to crush exam day!
Amy Ng
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!

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.

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.

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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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.

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!

Sean and Sahith are prime boards tutors. They really helped me work through the logic of the questions and prioritize my thinking which has helped both with boards and in rotations! Special shputout to Sahith who put in a lot of time helping me through these things. Highly recommend them to anyone who is wanting to sure up their scores to crush exam day!
Amy Ng
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!

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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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.

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.

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.

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 🙂
