MotivateMD has great editors, and in any cases where I have had any issues, their support team has been super helpful! Some editors that have particularly stood out to me have been Felicia and Bryson (Dr. G)!

I highly recommend MotivateMD for med school apps!
I was behind on my personal statement, but MotivateMD helped me edit nearly 10 drafts of my personal statement and activity/work sections in just one month. Thanks to their guidance, I was able to submit my primary application within a week of AMCAS opening! I had brainstorming sessions with different coaches, which gave me fresh perspectives and ideas. Their support became even more invaluable when I started receiving secondary applications. I worked with coaches familiar with the schools I was applying to, which helped me write detailed, tailored responses. MotivateMD doesn’t just edit grammar, spelling, or word count. They provide concrete suggestions to make your writing stronger and more compelling. The biggest advantage is working with actual medical students and residents from a range of schools, many with admissions committee experience. They understand the process firsthand and provide guidance that is practical and realistic. They are quick to respond, incredibly helpful, and I truly wouldn’t have made it through the application process without them. Whether you need help with writing, interviews, CASPer, or general advice, MotivateMD is an affordable, high-quality resource I cannot recommend enough!

Good program overall.
Response from Motivate MDAug 21, 2025
Thank you so much for sharing your feedback. I’m very sorry for the confusion around your daughter's essay review. In this case, the essay was submitted without the original prompt, so the reviewer didn’t have the right context to work from. Still, we believe our editors should always pause and reach out for clarification rather than risk giving unhelpful feedback. We’re making changes to be sure that step isn’t missed again.
I truly appreciate your kind words, and I want you to know I’ll be keeping a close eye to make sure your daughter feels supported every step of the way.
