Application Strategy: Your coach will help you identify your unique strengths and advantages as an applicant and plan how to effectively showcase those strengths throughout your dental school application. If you're concerned about any part of your application profile, like your DAT score or GPA, your coach will help you develop an application that proactively addresses these areas and effectively spotlights your strengths. 4. Personal Statement Brainstorming, Advising & Editing: Get expert guidance and feedback from your coach on your personal statement. Find confidence in a narrative that effectively highlights your motivations, experiences, and aspirations. 5. Activity Descriptions: Work closely with your coach to decide which extracurricular activities, experiences, awards, and honors to include and how to describe them in a way that fits your application's broader narrative. 6. Letters of Recommendation: Strategize with your coach about choosing potential recommenders, making recommendation requests, and supporting recommenders so you can be sure you're getting strong letters of recommendation. 8. Secondaries Advising & Editing: Understand exactly what each school is looking for in their secondaries and get personalized advising support from your coach.

Joined February 2026
Harvard Dental Student and Student Admissions Committee Member
I would make a strong coach for students applying to dental school because I understand the admissions process from both the applicant and evaluator perspectives. As a member of the student admissions committee at HSDM, I have reviewed applications, interviewed candidates, and participated in discussions regarding admissions decisions. This experience has given me insight into what distinguishes strong applicants beyond grades and test scores—such as clarity of motivation, professionalism, depth of experience, and the ability to reflect meaningfully. In addition, through two years of mentoring pre-dental students one-on-one and delivering presentations on the application process, I have helped students translate their experiences into compelling narratives and approach interviews with confidence. I am able to provide honest, strategic guidance grounded in firsthand knowledge of how admissions committees think and evaluate candidates.
