Our founders

While working as a textbook editor, Jon Orsay became dissatisfied with the level of quality he saw in MCAT prep books. Vowing to do it better, he published the original MCAT Complete Study Package. 25 years later, Jon and his wife Silvia still run Examkrackers as a family-owned company that has helped 300,000 students achieve MCAT success.
