Package Description:
This package is designed for medical school applicants who’ve been placed on the waitlist and want to take smart, strategic steps to improve their odds of admission. With guidance from a seasoned coach, you’ll build a personalized plan to stay engaged with your target programs and showcase continued growth and interest. Through thoughtful communication and well-timed updates, you’ll maintain momentum—and send a clear message that you’re still all-in. Whether you're seeking clarity on what schools want, or looking for ways to strengthen your profile, your coach will help you approach the waitlist process with confidence and intention. Common coaching activities in this package include, but are not limited to: - Waitlist Assessment: Analyze your submitted application and any school feedback to pinpoint potential areas of improvement and strategic additions. - Letter of Continued Interest (LOCI): Draft clear, compelling updates that reiterate your enthusiasm and highlight meaningful new developments. - Profile Enhancement: Strategically showcase new academic, clinical, or personal accomplishments that reinforce your commitment to medicine. - Decision Guidance: Get expert support on how to respond to school communications, whether to submit updates, and how to time your outreach. - Tone & Messaging Strategy: Ensure your communications strike the right balance of professionalism, enthusiasm, and self-awareness. This package is ideal for applicants who don’t want to sit back and wait—but instead want to take action that aligns with med school expectations. With focused coaching, you’ll be able to make the most of this uncertain phase—and put your best foot forward until the very end.

Experienced Admission’s Coach and Current MD-PhD Student at UPenn Med
Welcome to my profile! As a recent matriculant of the University of Pennsylvania’s Perelman School of Medicine, the application process is fresh in my mind and I am here to help! Just last year, I received interview invitations from more than 18 elite medical and graduate programs and acceptances from the likes of Harvard, Yale, Stanford, and more. For most institutions, MD-PhD applicants are evaluated separately by the medical and graduate school, meaning that despite my specialized track I have ample credentials to help both medical and graduate students as they undergo this rigorous process. As a first generation college student, I have also worked especially closely with my Alma matar’s Ivy League career services department, providing me with additional professional knowledge that I can share with you! I have also serviced as an interviewer both for the University of Pennsylvania undergraduate early and regular decision cycle and Perelman School of Medicine’s applicants. I currently conduct volunteer career services counseling for first generation low income students at Penn interested pursuing medicine and biomedical research. I mentor students at all stages from sophomore to gap year. My most recent class of mentees have received interviews at Harvard, Yale, Washington University in Saint Louis, Emory, and more. Whether you're a top student aiming for a competitive program or a second-time applicant with below-average GPAs and MCATs, I have the expertise to guide you through the evolving medical school admissions landscape. From personal statements and secondaries to letters of recommendation and school lists, I provide comprehensive coaching tailored to your unique strengths and goals. Let's work together to create a compelling application package that showcases an authentic picture of who you are and maximizes your chances of success. Reach out to me today and let's get started!
