Review felt like it was auto generated
Review felt like it was auto generated. Some of the stuff they told me to do was literally already in my personal statement. Could’ve gotten better review from ChatGPT.
Response from Motivate MDJun 20, 2025
Hey James, This is Drew, the founder of Motivate MD. I don’t typically respond to reviews personally, but I wanted to reach out to apologize directly for your experience. I’m truly sorry that your edit didn’t meet your expectations and that it gave the impression of being AI-generated. We are processing a full refund and will also be reviewing this case further. I do see that your edit was completed about a month ago. Ideally, we like to catch concerns sooner so we can either resolve the issue or issue a full refund—something we’re always happy to do if expectations aren’t met. Honestly, the biggest reason behind our high satisfaction and acceptance rates has always been the use of real, talented editors that also can provide something AI cannot: actual medical experience and a genuine human perspective. This is essential and continues to be a core principle at Motivate MD, because at the end of the day, it’s real people—often with medical backgrounds—who will be the ones reading your essay and making the decision about your acceptance into their med school. Although I'm now an ER attending, I still remember the stress and uncertainty of being a premed and applying to med school… I did not start Motivate MD to provide sub-par services or ever make someone feel like they got “cheated”. We strive for excellence, honesty, and transparency, and keep our services fairly-priced for that reason. Wishing you all the best on your journey to becoming a physician! Please don’t hesitate to reach out if there’s anything else we can do to help. Sincerely, Drew Porter, MD
