100% of our medical school interview coaching clients were accepted into medical school in 3 of the past 5 years.
The Medical School Interview
The interview is the most critical step in the medical school admissions process.
-
While the other elements of your application will help you get an interview, your interview performance will strongly influence the ultimate decision.
-
Unfortunately, many qualified applicants lose any chance of admission because of a poor interview.
That's where we come in. MD2B consulting provides expert interview coaching services to medical school applicants.
-
We've helped hundreds of applicants reach their professional goals. Simply put, no one else can offer the knowledge, insight, expertise, and resources that we can.
-
After all, we wrote the books on the traditional medical school interview (Medical School Interview: Winning Strategies from Admissions Faculty) and the multiple mini interview (Multiple Mini Interview: Winning Strategies from Admissions Faculty).
What sets us apart from other services?
-
To begin with, all applicants work directly with Dr. Samir Desai or Dr. Rajani Katta, medical school professors and authors of multiple highly regarded medical education books.
What happens in an interview coaching session?
-
We work with you to develop answers that are compelling and memorable.
-
We start by taking the time to understand your background and your goals, and use that information to help determine what you can bring to a medical school.
-
One of the keys to our approach is that you learn how to tailor your responses to particular medical schools. This is precisely the type of detail that can make all the difference.
To give you an idea of the type of guidance we provide during your mock interview session (including examples of answers to interview questions), please check out our podcast.
