My name is Manjima, and I'm a current MD-PhD student at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill. Before UNC, I was a biomedical engineering and neuroscience student at the University of Southern California, and a master's student at the University of Oxford. My path to medical school was definitely not a straight line, and it took me a lot of time to recognize and accept that this was my dream. There were a thousand moments during this journey where I worried that my GPA was too low, or my clinical experiences not impactful enough, or research not high-profile enough for me to get to where I wanted to be. But, I knew that if I could craft a compelling narrative around my experiences and background, and communicate this story authentically to admissions committees, that I'd have a shot at success. And eventually that paid off! My first cycle applying to medical school, I received 11+ interviews to a combination of MD, MD/PhD, and MSTP programs. I personally relied heavily on coaches and mentors to get me through my admissions process. As a non-traditional applicant, I did not have the support of pre-professional advising through universities. And many other "advisors" were quick to dismiss me based on what they saw as my perceived weaknesses. But I was lucky enough to find coaches and mentors who spent many hours working with me to craft my story, swamping through drafts and re-drafts of hundreds of essays, helping me with mock interviews, refining my elevator pitch, and listening to my research talks. Without their support, I would not be where I am today, and I hope to pay that forward to future generations of students.

Former member of the University of Pennsylvania's medical school admissions committee with firsthand understanding of what top programs look for in applicants. My journey includes earning an MD from the University of Pennsylvania, where I was a Doris Duke Clinical Research Fellow, and an MBA from Harvard Business School.

I am especially passionate about (and qualified to serve) applicants who are not 1000% sure that medicine is for them. I am not here to talk you out of med school - rather our work together will help you crystallize your why so that you can (a) be sure this very expensive life investment is right for you and (b) tell your story in the most compelling way possible.

Welcome to my profile!

My mentees have achieved impressive results, gaining acceptance into top medical schools and securing prestigious fellowships like the Rhodes, Barry Goldwater, and Gates-Cambridge Scholarships. With my background from Harvard, Cambridge, and Case Western, I offer targeted guidance on personal statements and application strategies tailored to the unique aspects of U.S. medical school applications.

I coach medical school applicants through a strategic, systems-based lens developed over 15+ years in highly selective admissions advising. My background as a Harvard graduate, combined with extensive experience guiding high-achieving students through competitive undergraduate admissions, gives me a deep understanding of how elite institutions evaluate academic rigor, intellectual direction, and long-term narrative coherence. I apply that same structural thinking to medical school admissions. Medical school is not won at the AMCAS stage. It is built years earlier through coursework strategy, research depth, clinical immersion, leadership positioning, and thoughtful reflection. I specialize in helping students reverse-engineer the process. We clarify intellectual motivations, align experiences with future goals, and construct a compelling, evidence-backed narrative of readiness for medicine. I have worked closely with pre-med students on: • Academic trajectory planning and GPA repair strategy • Research positioning and publication narrative • Clinical experience selection and depth analysis • Personal statement development rooted in authentic motivation • Activity descriptions that demonstrate impact rather than participation • Secondary essay frameworks tailored to institutional priorities • Interview preparation focused on clarity, maturity, and ethical reasoning My approach is rigorous, honest, and structured. I do not rely on generic templates. Instead, I help students understand how admissions committees think, how institutional missions differ, and how to present a profile that is both competitive and authentic. The goal is not simply admission. The goal is to develop a future physician who can clearly articulate why medicine, why now, and why them.
