My name is Brian McElroy, founder of McElroy Tutoring (https://www.mcelroytutoring.com). I'm a 42 year-old Providence, RI native, and I live with my wife, our three daughters, and our two dogs in beautiful Colorado Springs, Colorado. Since graduating from Harvard with honors in the spring of 2002, I’ve worked full-time as a private test-prep tutor, essay editor, author, and admissions consultant.
I’ve taken the real GMAT 6 times — including the GMAT online — and have scored in the 700s each time, with personal bests of 770/800 composite, Quant 50/51, Verbal 48/51, IR 8 (2 times), and AWA 6 (4 times), with 3 consecutive 99% scores on Verbal. More importantly, however, I’ve coached hundreds of aspiring MBA students to significantly better GMAT scores over the last two decades, including scores as high as 720 (94%), 740 (97%), 760 (99%), 770, 780, and even the elusive perfect 800, with an average score improvement of over 120 points.
I've also scored a verified perfect 340 on the GRE, and 179 (99%) on the LSAT.
