Next Step offers a range of tutoring options. Our Elite Tutoring offering is the right choice for families who are looking to retain the very best possible help for the MCAT. We are pleased to offer a level of personal service and instructor qualification not available from any other company. Our two Elite instructors each have over a decade of MCAT tutoring experience (first at one of the major test prep companies before joining Next Step) and a history of helping students make significant score gains on the MCAT.
In addition to teaching for over a decade, both have spent years developing MCAT curricula and practice passages.
While we encourage you to shop around, we believe Bryan and Dr. Lafond are the two best MCAT instructors available anywhere. Next Step is the only major MCAT company to make their senior MCAT management and development staff available to work with students (at any price).

More about our elite instructors:
Bryan Schnedeker is Next Step’s national MCAT director. That means he manages all of our MCAT instructors nationally and counsels hundreds of MCAT students when they begin our process. He has over a decade of MCAT teaching and tutoring experience (starting at one of the big prep course companies before joining our team). He has gone through the med school admissions process himself and has scored a 44 on the MCAT, including a perfect 15 in the Biological and Physical Sciences. He has also authored hundreds of MCAT practice questions.
Bryan also spent several years training dozens of other company’s most experienced tutors. His insight has shaped Next Step’s entire approach to the MCAT, and his rigorously high standards ensure that Next Step’s MCAT offerings are the finest available.
Since Bryan has extensive management obligations as well as tutoring, he works with no more than 2 MCAT students at a time. Students will meet online via video conference; we are happy to arrange a live demo with Bryan to demo both his expertise and our video conference technology.
Dr. Anthony Lafond is Next Step’s National Content Director and our most highly qualified and highly rated MCAT tutor. He has over a decade of teaching and tutoring experience and a proven track record of success helping students succeed on the MCAT. He began his MCAT career over a decade ago as Bryan’s very first trainee at one of the big national companies.
Anthony was admitted to UMDNJ’s MD/PhD program and recently finished his dual-degree program. In the course of obtaining his MD/PhD Anthony was able to continue his teaching work, both at UMDNJ and on MCAT prep. His experience both in the wards and in the lab have helped deepen his appreciation for the value of multi-modal learning to help deepen understanding.
Because Dr. Lafond has significant management obligations and is working closely with Bryan to develop Next Step’s MCAT 2015 materials, he can only work with 2 students at a time. Students will meet with Dr. Lafond online via video conference; we are happy to arrange a live demo with Anthony to demonstrate both his expertise and the online technology.
Elite Package Pricing and Details:
The tuition for MCAT Elite Tutoring is $15,000.
The MCAT Elite Tutoring will include everything you need. Your tuition includes any materials you will need, such as:
• A full set of MCAT prep books, including exclusive access to any Next Step materials in development
• A full set of MCAT practice tests, including Next Step’s own exams as well as any additional practice exams needed.
• Every single released AAMC item
• Additional practice items that you and the tutor decide are necessary
The MCAT Elite tutoring package includes twice weekly 90-minute sessions with your tutor for up to 16 weeks. We typically find that most MCAT students need something like three to three-and-a-half months of prep time, so the MCAT Elite Package offers 16 weeks to give a little extra room in the schedule. The exact schedule will be custom tailored to your needs at the start of the program.
Finally, as an MCAT Elite student, you will have access to your tutor in between sessions via phone and email, for up to an additional half hour of tutor contact time each week.
To inquire about working with either Bryan or Anthony, please contact Bryan directly. You can arrange an appointment to speak with Bryan using his online calendar at this link.
