Package Description:

This session focuses on refining and optimizing your existing medical school list to reduce risk and improve match quality. Rather than generating a list from scratch, the emphasis is on identifying imbalances, strategic gaps, and misaligned school selections. You’ll receive feedback on reach vs target distribution, geographic considerations, mission fit, and competitiveness relative to your profile. Schools that pose disproportionate risk are flagged, and strategic additions or removals are discussed with clear rationale. The session ends with a clear, defensible school list strategy you can move forward with confidently. Format: 30-minute 1:1 review session Best for: Applicants who already have a school list but want to ensure it is realistic, balanced, and strategically sound.
