Who We Are

Brainiac Test Prep is the brainchild of Dr. Anthony D’Antoni, who has over 20 years of experience teaching medical students.

Dr. D’Antoni is an expert on how to develop critical thinking in medical students, which aligns perfectly with the new MCAT® and its heavy emphasis on critical thinking and problem solving. Brainiac Test Prep goes beyond MCAT® preparation because our instruction will prepare you for medical school.

In addition to virtual MCAT® prep sessions and the online test bank, we offer consultation services for the entire medical school application process that includes mock interviews and personal statement development.

Let us help you get there…Brainiac Test Prep, ahead of the curve.

The Brainiac Test Prep Difference

Our virtual MCAT® prep sessions are different than our competitors. How?

First, our instructors are professors who have medical school teaching experience. We do not hire students who happen to have scored high on the MCAT®. In fact, our virtual MCAT® prep sessions are personally taught by Dr. D’Antoni.

Second, we structure our prep sessions based on the evidence-based literature on how college students learn and retrieve information.

We allow you to work through high-quality, MCAT®-style questions and then facilitate a discussion based on the best answer choice and the distractors.

We then explain the domain knowledge that you need to answer the question with confidence. We also teach you what to do if you do not have the knowledge to increase the probability of choosing the correct answer on test day.

This is the opposite strategy of many of our competitors who still offer “crash courses” that review entire subjects in the same way they were presented to you in college. Why review a course that you already took in college? You need to learn actively and in-context in a way that aligns with the MCAT®.

Test Bank

Dr. D’Antoni has personally created an online test bank of challenging questions that mimic those on the MCAT®. The test bank contains both passage-based and discrete questions that will help you get to the next level in your preparation.

Many question explanations are linked to free, online textbooks so that you can delve further into the concepts tested. Some explanations are also accompanied by short video clips of Dr. D’Antoni explaining why the correct answers are correct, and why the distractors are not. Brainiac Test Prep is unique in this regard and can offer such video clips because the person who wrote the questions is an expert item writer.

The questions are available as quizzes (each quiz contains 10 questions) so that students have the flexibility of purchasing only questions from the sections that they are struggling with and not obligated to purchase an entire test bank.

Student Testimonials

“

Jumping into MCAT prep with Dr. D was a game-changer for me. Under his guidance, I nailed a 12-point score boost on the MCAT! The personalized attention and strategies I got from Dr. D were spot-on, making it way more than your average prep course. His teaching style is super engaging and tailored to fit all kinds of learners.

Brainiac Test Prep with Dr. D’Antoni has been helpful, beyond words, in improving my knowledge of MCAT material, my test-taking skills, and my overall confidence in the daunting setting of the pre-medical process as an undergraduate student. I have been doing sessions with BTP for a few months now, and I have noticed a significant increase in my capacity to absorb content knowledge and have even improved my test-taking strategies. Not only does Dr. D provide excellent and challenging questions, but he also provides in-depth explanations of the concepts behind the questions and the answer choices, correct and incorrect. The magnitude of his explanations, which encompass a variety of learning modalities (visual, auditory, and even tactile) have been crucial to improving both my knowledge of MCAT material and my test-taking abilities. This is another unique and extremely useful component of BTP that makes it so outstanding compared to other test prep companies. I highly recommend BTP to any student struggling with the medical school admissions process, and I recommend doing so sooner rather than later.

Brainiac Test Prep sessions have enabled me to grow more confident in my ability to succeed on the MCAT and score highly. The passages and practice questions continue to challenge my knowledge of the material in a rewarding and thought-provoking way, and strongly reflect what I have seen in AAMC practice tests and questions. The distinguishing factors between BTP compared to other companies are the thorough explanations given by Dr. D'Antoni, who provides justification for the correct answers, and goes above and beyond to connect all of the MCAT subjects together in ways that parallel the test. Dr. D’Antoni clearly wants his students to succeed by doing well on the MCAT.

Dr. D'Antoni and Brainiac Test Prep helped me immensely throughout my pre-medical and medical school admissions journeys. With Dr. D'Antoni's tutoring and guidance, I improved my MCAT score, the complex process of building my application portfolio, and the many personal statements and interviews that came after. Not only did Dr. D'Antoni help me to successfully navigate through the many topics covered on the MCAT, but his tips and tricks empowered me to tackle complex topics and problem sets through understanding rather than memorization. I highly recommend Dr. D'Antoni to anyone who plans on tackling the MCAT and applying to medical school!

I joined Brainiac Test Prep tutoring roughly 6 months before I took the real MCAT. The MCAT prep sessions with Dr. D’Antoni were extremely beneficial because many of the concepts on my real MCAT were practiced together in virtual class sessions. Seeing familiar concepts on the real MCAT helped me stay confident throughout many of the passages during the exam. Dr. D’Antoni also provides passages with a variety of difficulty levels, which proved to be reflective of the real MCAT. Dr. D'Antoni is extremely knowledgeable, and provides thorough explanations for why answer choices are correct.

He goes above and beyond to ensure that I not only understand the material, but also achieve the desired outcome on my exams. Every session with him is a tailored tutoring experience that caters to my specific needs, providing a personalized learning journey. Dr. D'Antoni employs diverse teaching modalities, incorporating both visual and auditory approaches. His unique ability to connect material enhances the learning experience, making complex concepts more digestible. Additionally, he emphasizes constant practice questions, which has made me a more proficient test taker. Through his guidance, I have surpassed the expectations of my nursing curriculum, laying a solid foundation for becoming a more competent clinician. Dr. D'Antoni's commitment to his clients and tutoring techniques have been a great contributor to my success thus far. Thank you!

Physician Testimonials

“

During my professional career, one of my greatest successes was teaching Clinical Anatomy with Dr. D'Antoni at a medical school. Despite Clinical Anatomy being a traditionally difficult course, not only did all our medical students pass the class, but they scored on average 26 points over the national average on the NBME gross anatomy and embryology shelf examination. This was due in large part to Dr. D'Antoni's mastery of the material, and his ability to teach effective test-taking skills to his students. When the time came, I myself was able to successfully use those same skills to pass two of my medical board exams the first time I took them. I highly recommend Dr. D'Antoni as an MCAT tutor for any student who is looking to score high on the MCAT, and also wants to learn test-taking skills that will serve you well no matter what standardized exams you may have to take in the future.

Dr. D'Antoni and I were colleagues at a medical school where the majority of students were considered disadvantaged. Dr. D'Antoni was able to get the entire first-year class to pass the NBME shelf examination in gross anatomy and embryology due to his extraordinary teaching methods. This had never been done before at that medical school. Dr. D'Antoni is a gifted teacher and specialist on preparing for standardized examinations. He is well positioned to help any student obtain a competitive MCAT score.
