With over 20 years in medical education, I am a passionate coach and mentor to those seeking admission to medical school, as well as to medical students applying for residency programs. Having served as an MMI Interviewer I have a strong understanding of the qualities and traits that admissions committees are seeking. Working closely with medical students from first to fourth year, I have coached and mentored dozens of medical students as they navigate the residency application and interview process. I am particularly drawn to learners who are first generation college students and/or come from socio-economically challenged backgrounds. I believe medicine needs learners who reflect the patient populations they will serve and who bring intelligence, compassion, and a strong work ethic. It is my mission to help those learners achieve their goals.

Founder of highly successful Pre-Med Prep, a med school admissions service designed to helped Pre-Meds get into medical school. I am a Physician in Neurology in a top program in the US. For years I have helped students achieve their dreams in getting into medical school and now I have joined Leland to continue helping students achieve their dreams of becoming doctors. I am here to help you create the best possible application to medical school, residency, or fellowship. As a physician myself, not only have I gone through the process of applying to medical school and Residency but have been on an admissions committee in the past where i received key insights directly into the admission process. Over the last 6 years, I have helped over 400 students gain admission into medical school, guiding them through the personal statement, secondaries, interviews, scholarships and beyond. I have worked with students from all walks of life including IMGs, non-traditional applicants, MD programs, and DO programs. Through working with me, we will go beyond simply editing the personal statement or writing the work and activities section. I will help you showcase the best version of yourself to maximize your chances in gaining acceptance to medical school.

Despite not having a perfect transcript or resume of accolades, I was accepted to a medical school that boasts a <2% acceptance rate. I am driven to bolster the next generation of physicians and leaders in healthcare by helping fill the gaps in the application, interview, and school selection process.

I am a qualified medical school coach because I had great success in my medical school application cycle, interviewing with 5 top-30 medical schools and selecting a top-5 medical school to attend. I applied and was accepted to medical school as an undergraduate student and matriculated straight from undergrad to medical school at 21 years old. This feat required me to master the necessary study strategies and time management, networking, standardized test-taking, and writing skills to produce an impressive application. One of my mentees was accepted into a top 5 medical school this cycle, and two others are preparing to apply in the next cycle.

I have 5 years of experience coaching aspiring medical school students, 2 of which have been spent at a highly reputable consulting agency.

I went through the arduous process of preparing primary and secondary applications for medical school, along with all of the accompanying essays. I ended up with a high number of interviews and acceptances. While deciding which program to join, I was able to further explore the strengths and weaknesses of my application with admissions committee members at a number of schools to understand what was appealing to them. I now sit as an executive member of the UCLA Medical School Council and Committee, which is involved in major medical school decision processes including admissions. Over the years of coaching applicants through this long process, I've observed what works and what doesn't, both on paper and off.

Hi everyone! My name is Kavya, and I am from sunny Orlando, Florida. When I applied to medical school, I was fortunate to receive interview invites from all but one of the schools I applied to, and received acceptances to several top schools, including Harvard, Stanford, UPenn, Columbia, and Yale. I know how long and stressful applying to medical school can be, so whatever stage you are at in the process, remember to be kind to yourself and be proud of how far you have come! In college and during my gap years, I spent my time doing neurodegenerative disease and public health research, as well as advocacy work with a free health screening organization. I'm more than happy to help with any essay editing, scholarship application advice, school list strategy, and beyond. I always strive to be thorough and quick with my edits, and help my students' voices shine. So excited to work with you!

Temiloluwa (Temi) Adeyemo is a medical student, educator, and mentor, born and raised in Ibadan, Nigeria with a passion for mental health advocacy and medical education. He is currently pursuing his MD at the University of California, San Diego, as a Vice Chancellor’s Scholar for Inclusive Excellence in Medicine. His journey in medicine has been shaped by a deep commitment to underserved communities and a desire to bridge gaps in healthcare access and education. Temi’s academic journey began at 14 when he immigrated to Omaha, Nebraska, to attend Mount Michael Benedictine School, an all-boys Catholic boarding school. As a child, he had long dreamed of America, enchanted by the images he saw on television, but the reality of his journey was filled with challenges. He initially struggled with homesickness and cultural adjustment, but he found solace in his international peers and his growing passion for education. His perseverance led him to excel academically, and he discovered his love for teaching while working as a K-12 tutor at Mathnasium, where he helped students grasp difficult mathematical concepts and build confidence in their abilities. He later continued his education at Stanford University, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in Human Biology, concentrating on Global Child and Adolescent Mental Health. As an undergraduate, he was awarded prestigious scholarships, including The Gates Scholarship and The Thrive Scholarship, recognizing his academic excellence and leadership. His research contributions span multiple fields, from mental health intervention development to racial disparities in the justice system. He was one of only ten scholars selected for the Columbia University Global Mental Health Research Fellowship, where he worked on pioneering studies to support Black women survivors of intimate partner violence. Beyond research, Temi is deeply invested in education and mentorship. With seven years of tutoring experience, he has helped hundreds of students improve their MCAT scores, often by 5–15 points, leading many to admissions at top medical schools, including Harvard, Columbia, and UNC-Chapel Hill. His approach combines data-driven strategies with active listening and emotional processing, particularly for students with learning and attention difficulties. Temi’s dedication to service extends beyond academics. He is also an accomplished poet, using his writing to explore themes of identity, resilience, and social justice. His poetry has served as a creative outlet and a means to connect with others, shedding light on the lived experiences of marginalized communities. As a Nigerian immigrant, he is passionate about addressing healthcare disparities in marginalized populations. His work with the Asido Foundation in Nigeria involved mental health advocacy, curriculum development, and community outreach. He also co-founded a mental healthcare space for African students at Stanford, ensuring ongoing support for their unique challenges. Outside of medicine and mentorship, Temi is an avid football (soccer) enthusiast. The sport has been a constant source of joy and community throughout his life, providing him with an avenue for connection during his early years in the United States. Whether playing on the field or watching matches with friends, football remains an integral part of his identity. He finds joy and camaraderie in the sport, which has been a lifelong passion and a way to stay connected to his roots. Temi’s strengths as a mentor and educator lie in his ability to inspire confidence, break down complex concepts, and tailor strategies to each student’s strengths. He believes in fostering agency and executive functioning skills, ensuring his students are prepared not only for exams but for lifelong success. Whether through research, mentorship, or advocacy, Temi remains committed to empowering future healthcare professionals and improving mental health outcomes in underserved communities. He is excited to continue guiding students toward achieving their goals and making a meaningful impact in medicine.
