Zoya’s Dental School Qualifications
10+ people coached for Dental School
I was an average student in college but was able to land multiple interviews into dental school. If I can do it, I firmly believe anyone can. Through creating my own opportunities in undergrad, I was able to create my own path into dental school. I have coached dozen of students all around the world through the LEAP foundation from getting into college to graduate school. I am very relatable, easy to talk to, and work with you to help accomplish your goals!

About Zoya
I have been an average student my whole life from grade school to college. I really struggled with academics until I learned how to work smarter and not harder. In college, my advisor told me I wouldn’t be able to study abroad with my biomedical sciences major and that I shouldn’t apply to dental school because my GPA was average and DAT score. I was able to finish college on Deans list, be captain of my lacrosse team, study abroad in 5 countries, work two part time jobs, and get admission into dental school on my first try. If I can do it, trust me you can too! Instead of searching for opportunities to come my way, I created my own. I believe you can too!
Why do I coach?
I am passionate in coaching because I have had wonderful mentors guide me in my career. Without my mentors, I would not be where I am today. I would love to offer my guidance and coaching to students in a time of need!
