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.

Stanford MD | Cambridge PhD | Non-traditional, first-gen, international

I am a physician-scientist in training, and I have completed my PhD at the University of Cambridge where I was a Gates Cambridge Scholar, and I am currently pursuing my MD training at Stanford University where I am a Knight-Hennessy Scholar. I am also a Research Fellow at Caius College in Cambridge, which is one of the most prestigious independent research positions. I have over 9 years of experience in academic institutions and have been admitted to several top medical schools including Stanford, Harvard and Yale. I have experience crafting individualised personal statements for some of the world's top scholarships, including Gates Cambridge, Knight-Hennessy and Barry M. Goldwater scholarships. I also have extensive experience in writing and have published multiple sole, first-authored manuscripts in the journal Nature and have won multiple research grants from the NSF and NIH. I have mentored and worked with aspiring medical and graduate school applicants in the US and the UK and have unique insights into the admission process at top universities.
