I had the privilege of working with Anthony R over the past three years while preparing for both the ABSITE and the General Surgery Oral Boards, and I can confidently say he is an exceptional tutor.
Anthony’s depth of medical knowledge is truly remarkable—he has an ability to break down even the most complex surgical concepts into clear, understandable ideas. Beyond just content mastery, he taught me how to think critically, approach questions strategically, and develop strong test-taking skills that made a real difference in my performance.
What sets Anthony apart is not just his expertise, but his teaching style. He is incredibly supportive, patient, and approachable. He creates an environment where you feel comfortable asking questions and engaging deeply with the material. He was always accessible and responsive, consistently taking the time to answer my emails and clarify topics whenever I needed help.
His feedback is another standout quality—always thoughtful, constructive, and delivered with empathy. He pushes you to improve without ever being harsh, which made the learning process both effective and encouraging.
I highly recommend Anthony to anyone preparing for the ABSITE, oral boards, or looking to strengthen their surgical knowledge and clinical reasoning. Working with him has been an invaluable part of my training.
I worked with Anthony for both written and oral boards. He was knowledgeable, patient, and helped me prepare appropriately for both exams. He was always flexible with tutoring timings and never rushed me during sessions even if I had extra questions. Would highly recommend Medlearnity and working with Anthony!
This is a few years late and VERY overdue review but this program is excellent. I felt very at ease during review sessions. Anthony helped me look at the information from the question-writer's perspective. Helped me glean most important facts from the stems and this really allowed me to relax during the exam and I. passed my General Surgery written boards!
Anthony from Medlearnity was instrumental in helping me pass my psychiatry boards. His structured approach, deep knowledge of the material, and ability to tailor sessions to my specific needs made all the difference. I highly recommend him to anyone preparing for their boards — his expertise and dedication are exceptional.
Great tutors. They do an outstanding job breaking down the different topics and explain how to approach the questions. There was a significant improvement in the exam results. I highly recommend their service. I plan on using them for the board exams in the future.

Hi Paul, thank you so much for the feedback. We really appreciate it!
Anthony is an amazing tutor. He explains things in a way that anyone can understand and has many tricks to remember the small details. I have never been a strong test taker, but with this tutoring, I nearly doubled my percentile on absite. Went on to pass written and oral boards with his help! Highly recommend!
Anthony from Medlearnity greatly helped me prepare for the ABSITE and surgical boards. The questions from Medlearnity are more challenging, and he guides you on how to analyze them correctly. Anthony customizes the sessions to meet your specific needs. I made significant progress in 20 sessions and passed the QE exam. The schedule is also very flexible.
Keith Cordner is an incredible tutor. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable, but he has a wonderful personality. Keith worked with me for Level 1, and I passed!! I had previous failure with Level 1 and was extremely discouraged when I began meeting with him. But, he taught me HOW to actually take this test, which is a huge part of the battle. He helped me build the confidence and knowledge necessary to pass the exam. He has the best explanations and is always willing to walk you through questions or topics step by step. He approaches tutoring with no judgement and you can tell he really just wants to make you a better doctor someday. His commitment to medical education is palpable in his sessions, and I always felt he genuinely wanted me to succeed. He doesn’t claim to know everything or be some kind of boards whisperer, but he knows what it takes to pass these exams. He encouraged me to work hard, helped me determine the best resources for my learning, and reworked my study plan if I felt things were not working. And, honestly, he made tutoring FUN. I found myself looking forward to tutoring and studying because of his approach to medical learning. He has a fantastic sense of humor and energy, and he shows that in his sessions. I look forward to working with him again in the future. I truly do not have words for how grateful I am for Keith and Medlearnity. It’s because of Keith I now feel I am truly capable of succeeding on future exams and as a doctor.
Had Keith as my tutor for STEP 1/COMLEX 1 and ended up passing both! He was able to explain concepts in a way I could easily understand and made sure I could apply the underlying concepts in practice questions we did. He is very knowledgeable and I highly recommend him if you need a patient and intelligent tutor!
Outstanding Tutor – Helped Me Pass Level 3 and Match!
I am incredibly grateful for Anthony at Medlearnity. After struggling through multiple attempts at my previous exams, I was thrilled to pass my COMLEX Level 3 on my first try—and I truly couldn’t have done it without him. Thanks to his expert guidance, I was able to strengthen my weaknesses, refine my approach to questions, and focus on what truly mattered.
What sets Anthony apart is not just his deep knowledge and strategic teaching, but also his unwavering support and flexibility. He always accommodated my schedule and tailored each session to my needs. More than that, he played a crucial role in helping me manage my exam anxiety, keeping me motivated and confident throughout the process. His calm and encouraging presence made all the difference.
Because of Anthony’s dedication and support, I not only passed Level 3 but also successfully matched into residency! He made a profound impact on my journey, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of an exceptional tutor. Thank you, Anthony, for believing in me and helping me achieve this milestone!

Congratulations on your success with COMLEX Level 3. We're so happy to hear about your experience with Anthony.
Viemma was an amazing tutor and I credit her with passing my Step 1 after a miserable first attempt! It was thanks to her encouragement, her question reviews, and her breakdowns of complicated subjects (calling out cardio and nephrology here) that made me get over my anxiety hump and actually learn. It was also nice to have someone keep me on track and make sure I wasn't getting bogged down in the details. Highly recommend this to everyone who struggles with test anxiety and I definitely plan to use Medlearnity on my Step 2!

Congratulations Anita! So happy you could work with Viemma and our team. We look forward to working with you again in the future.
I have extreme test anxiety and am a horrible test taker and was distraught on what to do for my ABIM. I was able to find out info about Dr. Anthony and took his classes for a year up until the week of my test and I passed with flying colors. I can’t express how grateful I am to him. He went above and beyond in terms of teaching me. Going over topics, test taking strategies and following up with me via email for questions etc. 100% recommend him. Thanks again Dr. Anthony.

Thanks for your kind feedback and so happy to hear about your experience with Anthony.
I got the opportunity to work with Dani, she quickly was able to understand my needs, strengths and topics to improve. She explained topics well and sessions were always productive. I owe much of my success to how she was able to guide me. I recommend her highly and Medlearnity was quick and responsive if any problem happened. For sure ill be using them for my STEP 3 as well.

Congrats, Diego! — So happy to hear about your experience with Dani. We’re excited to work with you again in the future.
Had Keith as my tutor for Step1/Level1 and he was absolutely amazing. He took the time to understand my strengths & weaknesses and really invested in my success, and I actually really enjoyed our tutoring sessions. What I most appreciated was how personal he was and how he was able to tutor me in a way that complemented my learning style. I would recommend Keith to all of my closest friends because he made all the difference for me during my studies.

Congrats Josh! So happy to hear about your experience with Keith. He’s an incredible tutor and works with so many students across exams. We appreciate you letting your friends know about your experience!
I finished 2 years of medical school as an average or an above average student, but I couldn't quite figure it out to do well on my COMSAE and was stuck at a 408. Thankfully I got in touch with Keith who put me on the path to success for me. He didn't claim to have any magical solutions and did not present himself as a guru like other tutors I had met. He told me I would have to put in the time and hard work and that's exactly what happened. Instead of wasting my time with low yield study methods that saw me stagnating I saw increased slow growth. My UWORLD scores slowly got better and after a month my comsae went up to a 442. After a bit more practice and effort and guidance from Keith I got my comsae 110B score up to a 581 and was above average on the COMLEX Level 1. Keith's guidance wasn't "my way or the highway", rather he was very attuned to my strengths and weaknesses and helped craft a method that would work for me specifically. However he wasn't a pushover either, if he saw something was wrong he would clearly say it and tell me how to fix it. This meant that after even a few sessions I myself knew what needed to be worked on and when it came to specific concepts that were tripping me, there Keith did an awesome job of finding where my lapse of understanding was and helped me understand it. I can do it and was able to do it all along but with Keith helping me out I did it the right an efficient way. I am definitely going to use Keith's assistance going onto to third year and above.
