John Wetzel founded WikiPremed with the goal of providing students anywhere in the world the means to prepare for medical school. A graduate of Stanford University, he scored a 38S on the MCAT in 1994. He has helped premedical students prepare for the MCAT in small group teaching through over fifty course cycles. His notable contribution is demonstrating how to teach the undergraduate physical and biological sciences in a unified curriculum. Many doctors across the Southeast are his former students.
