Medical School Admissions Coaches, Events, & Resources

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.

I am an incoming first-year medical student at Harvard Medical School. This cycle, I have also earned acceptances at Duke, Cornell (Weill), Dartmouth (Geisel), Vanderbilt, Emory, UVA, and MCG, as well as interview invitations to Stanford, Hopkins, Penn, WashU, Mayo Clinic, UChicago, ISMMS, BU, UAB, and USF. I believe that the most important aspect of any application, beyond hard stats, is one's writing quality. Trained in literature in college, I have helped over 15 students with their personal statements while applying to medical school myself, the majority of whom have received several top-20 acceptances.
