With dozens of essays to write in a short period, it's easy to feel unsure of where to begin when it comes to starting your secondary applications. While some medical schools maintain consistent secondary prompts year after year, ensuring a certain degree of predictability, others introduce subtle changes that require tailored responses. To be considered seriously, students need to write to the prompt and effectively convey their point of view.

 

Your essays should do more than answer the questions. They should tell a compelling story, demonstrating what you've learned, how you've grown, and who you are as a person. We'll help you identify examples and experiences that best describe your journey and create impactful essays.

Our Five-School Approach to Secondaries​

By initially focusing on five carefully selected schools, we'll help you craft a strong approach to your secondary application process that can be applied to your entire application list. 

We recommend selecting five target schools that:

• Align with Your Goals: Prioritize schools where you have a strong likelihood of acceptance or a deep desire to attend.

• Represent a Diverse Range of Prompts: Choose schools with secondary prompts that cover a variety of themes and topics common in medical school applications.

 

If you encounter challenges with later applications, we offer flexible hourly advising to ensure you receive the guidance you need.
