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.

I am able to provide honest, strategic guidance grounded in firsthand knowledge of how admissions committees think and evaluate candidates.
