What Applicants Have to Say
After reading blog post after blog post, and watching way too many videos, I realized I was wasting too much time. I needed to figure out what to say NOW. The course showed me what to highlight in my answers, it showed me how to stand out, and it got me into my top choice medical school!

If another applicant were to ask me if they should purchase this course, I would say yes!!!
I was accepted to all five schools that interviewed me!
-MS3 (Third year medical student)
This course was exactly what I needed – it covered all the main interview questions that I was asked, and each module was to the point and showed me what I needed to do. It did two things really well: it saved me so much time, and it showed me how to stand out. I had interviews at six Texas Medical schools, and I was thrilled when I got into my top choice.
-MS1 (First year medical student
I was really, really nervous about my interview, because I only had one. My mentor told me that all you need is one: that if they’re interviewing you, they’re seriously considering you, but that I would need to do a better job during the interview than anyone else. One of the upperclassmen, who is now a first year medical student, had taken this course and said that it helped her so much, so I followed her advice. I went through every module. I reflected on my activities, and I researched the school deeper than I would have imagined possible. I almost couldn’t believe it when I got in, but I’m going to be a doctor in just two more years!
-MS2 (Second year medical student)
Getting an interview at a top 10 medical school was exciting, but also scary. I know every student interviewing there is pretty great, and how could I convince them to choose me? This course showed me how to structure my answers and especially how to emphasize that I was a great fit for their school. I don’t think I would’ve researched the school as deeply if I didn’t understand how important it was from the course. Doing that research helped me create answers that emphasized how I was the perfect student for their school. I'm excited to announce that I will be starting there this summer.
