"Hello! My name is Angelina, and I am a current medical student at the Ivy League University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine. During my own application cycle, I received 8 interview offers, including 3 at "Top 15" programs. Out of the 7 interviews I attended, I was offered admission to 6. I did this with no existing connections and no physicians in my family—not because of any sort of magic, but because I realized over time that there is real strategy involved in applying to medical school, and skills that can be learned and honed just as much as taking the MCAT.
I know exactly how challenging and intimidating the medical school application process is, and I am passionate about providing applicants of all backgrounds and ages the support they need to achieve their dreams and maximize their potential. I assist students comprehensively with all aspects of the admissions process, including:
- General application strategy: How can your unique experiences be synthesized into a cohesive, and competitive, story?
- School list strategy: Are you creating a school list that will set you up for success?
- Creating compelling personal statements and secondary essays: Is your writing effectively showcasing who you are and what you bring to the table as a future physician?
- Interview preparation: How do you tackle difficult questions and present yourself as a future colleague/classmate?
In addition to having served as a medical student interviewer, I have a background of over 650 hours of paid tutoring experience at NYU's University Learning Center, helping students tackle subjects such as Organic Chemistry, Molecular Biology, and Physics. In this role, I amassed a wealth of experience in working with a variety of student backgrounds and personalities, and finding the best teaching strategy to help each student succeed.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. I am here not only to support you from start to finish, but to push you to your full potential as an applicant!" less...
