I enjoyed my practice interview experience with Dr. Jasani. He was informative and used his experiences to relate to my own. As it was my first mock interview, he helped talk me through certain points and perspectives I could take when phrasing my answers.

I have been receiving support from the Shemmassian Academic Consulting crew for a little over a year now. I can confidently say that I have grown a lot as a student and they have helped me through some of the most difficult moments I have experienced in my journey to medical school (the MCAT, application cycle, interview prep, etc). They have gone above and beyond to offer me help and check in on me along the way to ensure that I feel like a priority to them. I appreciate all of their help and support I have received beyond words and would definitely recommend to anyone who is feeling stressed and overwhelmed going into the process of applying to medical school!

Great help preparing for medical school interviews. Dr. Nowicki mimicked an interview and then we reviewed what was good and what I could work on. I recommend.

I appreciated the help for editing my essays and helping best convey my ideas and perspectives without getting bogged down.

Very helpful interview prep! I 100% recommend it!

Shemassian Counseling helps students navigate the intricacies of the med school admissions process. Although I am not applying to medical school yet, I wanted to try out what med school counseling was like, and I highly recommend taking advantage of counseling if you need help with writing essays, finding research opportunities, hearing a second opinion about course options and extracurriculars, etc. My counselor, Jacob Shaw, was always supportive and encouraging, so the experience overall was very insightful and valuable!

I was very impressed and happy with my experience with Shemmassian Consulting. The medical school application process is extremely daunting, and I felt completely lost when I started drafting my personal statement, but speaking with Dr. Shemmassian on the phone and students who had used his services before, I already felt so welcomed and supported on this journey. Once I started, I was paired with an incredible advisor, Nick, who set up a call to understand my application goals, responded quickly to my many questions, kept me on schedule, and always offered words of encouragement and support. Initially, I felt my writing advisor was not the best fit for me, so the team was very quick to pair me with someone else, Katie, who was an incredible help with all my essays. She helped me get the word count down, highlight key stories, bring my voice out, and guide me on how to show and not tell. I felt thoroughly supported and on track with Nick and Katie and do not know where I would be without them. With their support, I was able to get my first medical school acceptance extremely early in the application cycle and also get into my dream school! I strongly encourage anyone who is on the fence to go to Shemmassian for their medical school application needs!

I am very grateful for the support I received from Shemmassian Consulting! I was completely lost upon entering the application cycle for American medical schools, especially as an international Canadian applicant. My team provided me with so much support and were always there to answer my questions and concerns (which I had a lot of). I did not expect to be supported so thoroughly and kindly; they took care of me and guided me through every single step, including choosing schools, editing my primary and secondary applications, helping me prepare for interviews, handling my anxiety and stress during the long and painful waiting period, and much more! I could not have asked for better support. Ultimately, I committed to one of the Ivy League med schools, and I attribute a significant portion of this success to the help I received from my team :)
