A 16-week online physics development program built specifically for high school students considering studying medicine, biological sciences, or life sciences. A concept-centered approach that focuses on understanding the “Why?”
That’s the Physics Advantage
WHY CHOOSE THE PHYSICS ADVANTAGE?
Theoretical Physics PhD candidate and award-winning college physics lecturer Nick has taught hundreds of college physics students – several were pre-med or in the life sciences. The Physics Advantage program is built around what those students actually needed and what they didn't. It rebuilds mathematical and physical reasoning from the foundation up, so the same skills carry from a junior-year unit test through the SAT and ACT, into college physics, and onto the MCAT.
For students who want to develop skills that stand out and pay dividends for years to come.
Physics preparation matters.
Physics asks students to do something few other high-school subjects demand simultaneously: understand abstract concepts, use mathematics, and solve unfamiliar problems.
For students headed toward medicine and the life sciences, high school isn't where this challenge ends — it's where it starts. The goal isn't to survive physics. It's to build skills that keep paying off.
47.3%
of high-school students reported physics as their hardest subject.1
25%
of the MCAT Chemical & Physical Foundations section is physics.
Average score improvement on college physics pre-test for students with strong preparation vs. no high-school physics preparation.

Hear From the Students
-
“This was one of the best courses I have ever taken. I’m a chemistry major but I have never loved physics until this class. Nick is so kind and he teaches so well it changed my viewpoint on the subject.”
— Physics 2 Student, UMass Amherst
-
“Physics 2 is known for being a rather hard course, but he did an amazing job going out of his way to explain any confusing concepts. He is well-prepared when it comes to his lectures and always answers any questions students may have. He is also easily accessible. If you get the chance, take one of his courses.”
— Physics 2 Student, UMass Amherst

“Nick is a great professor and all around guy. He is also really good at explaining the material and understanding how the students think.”

LET’S GET STARTED
Ready to Make Physics an Advantage?
The first step is an intake strategy call.
I’ll talk through your student's goals and background, work a few physics and math problems together, and find out where the real gaps are. No commitment, no pressure. It's how you, your student, and I all find out whether this is the right fit.
Three Simple Steps
01
Pick a time
Choose a slot that works for your family. It should take less than a minute to schedule.
We'll ask about your child's coursework, where they get stuck, and figure out what missing foundations they actually need to move forward.
02
I listen first
03
An honest answer
If I can help, I’ll show you how. If the program is not the right fit for your teen, I will tell you that too.
