These people just will take your money, treat you unprofessionally, and just waste your time.

This consulting company takes complete advantage of pre-medical students. I paid $4500 for their MCAT tutoring service with the impression that I would receive my money back if my score did not improve. This was something I was not trying to worry about, as their website boasts "100% Percentage of students who raised their scores with MedSchoolCoach". I was also finagled into purchasing their smaller secondary essay editing package while waiting for my MCAT score to come back. Well, I ended up scoring worse on the MCAT compared to the one I took prior to using their tutoring service and decided I was no longer going to apply to medical school (this was my last straw). I had barely used the secondary editing service and requested my money back for both. The customer service support person I spoke with on the phone asked me to describe my tutor experience, and I told her that he was just OK. I had to initiate all meetings and had to send him content to go over, otherwise, we wouldn't meet. I even had several hours of tutoring time left that went unused. She said that my experience shouldn't have been that way and that I should have been "blown away" by their tutors (she said this several times). Apparently, they have a 30-day money-back policy. If I was supposed to start studying at least 3 months out from my scheduled MCAT test date, how could I possibly know if I was going to score worse? They did not refund me for the tutor services, nor did they refund me for the secondary editing services, even after I explained to them that I would no longer be pursuing medical school. Instead, they applied a reduced amount of credits to my MedSchoolCoach account to be used for other services, after I already explained I was no longer following the pre-med path. Their response? Sell the credits! So now I have to convince some other pre-med student into buying their services if I want my thousands of dollars back?

I found this prep session very helpful. I enjoyed the structure of it for MMI practice: different kinds of questions with constructive feedback immediately after. Dr. Nelson also provided an extremely helpful way of formatting my answers to the MMI questions which allowed me to organize myself better. I also really enjoyed the fact that I came with questions I had previously had trouble with during MMI interviews and he helped me work through them to form better answers.

Very helpful to get familiar with the MMI format

I had a wonderful interview session with Dr. Blair Nelson. He gave great feedback and allowed me to feel confident going into my next interview.

The entire med school application process was made easier working with MedSchool Coach. The tutor for the MCAT prep was fantastic. My scores improved dramatically. The feedback and edits I received on my essays was invaluable. The mock interviews prepared me for any type of question and I felt relaxed and prepared. I would highly recommend MedSchool Coach to anyone who needs help getting into Medical School!

Very thorough. Dr. Lee is a great mentor and advisor

I was really glad I decided to do two sessions- hearing feedback from multiple individuals helped me refine my answers to be stronger and more cohesive.
