I used this service for help applying to residency programs and would use it again in a heartbeat. Dr. Shemmassian and his team are incredible and they made a stressful time in my life much less so. I could always count on less than 24hr turn around time with my work. Having a reliable fresh set of eyes to read my application and turn something from good to amazing is a feeling I can't put a price on. I would recommend this to anyone going through any application process- I am very happy with the help I received!

I found out about Shemmassian Consulting through an online ad and was initially skeptical. My doubts were quickly dispelled after my inquiry email. Dr. Shemmassian was professional, realistic about expectations and willing to answer all of my questions. I was paired with Dr. Andrew Song and he was an excellent mentor and advisor. I received plenty of guidance on all of my writing pieces. We went through multiple iterations to ensure that I was submitting my best work. Now that this is all finished, I am happy to say I will be attending medical school at the University of Tennessee! Thanks Dr. Shemmassian and Dr. Song!

Excellent service!! My essays completely transformed with Dr. Long's help. I am excited to continue working with them and definitely recommend Shemmassian consulting to everyone!

I utilized 90 minutes of Interview Coaching with Dr. Wang, and he was really incredible in giving me constructive feedback, while simultaneously giving me confidence in my abilities to shine in any interview. I especially liked how he threw different scenarios at me that could come up in med school interviews. Since my session with Dr. Wang, I have gotten into 8 of the 9 schools that I interviewed with and have heard back from, including a Top 5 medical school in the country. Interviewing truly has become one of my biggest strengths this application cycle. I would 100% recommend purchasing admissions consulting and interview services from Shemmassian Consulting! My experience couldn't have been better :)

I'd recommend Shemmassian Consulting to anyone looking to take their school/job applications to the next level. I used Shemmassian Consulting for my medical school applications because although I had strong test scores, my gpa made me a borderline candidate. Shirag worked with me to build a custom plan that allowed me to get all the help I needed at a reasonable budget. After the initial consultations, I was paired with Dr. Joseph Lee for help developing my school list, editing my personal statement, etc. Dr. Lee was very knowledgable about how to frame my experiences in the best light, and was careful to explain precisely what admissions committees are looking for. He was always prompt to return edits and was willing to schedule phone calls when I had additional questions. It was a pleasure to work with him and I have no doubt his contributions and insights helped me have a successful application cycle.

I really want to get into medical school straight after undergraduate, so I choose to work with Dr. Shirag after doing intensive research in the medical school consulting market. Compare to other consultant that I have interacted with, Dr. Shirag is the most patient, efficient, genuine and caring. He recommended a consulting package that fit my situation well and selected a mentor (Dr. Michael) that I really really really love to work with! Dr. Michael's experience in admission helped me to save tons of time on brainstorming and essay writing. He know what the admission is looking for and what I need to include in my application. With the help of Dr. Michael, my primary and secondary essays are very successful, which in turns brought multiple interview invites. Dr. Shirag never forget me after enrolling in his service. He was CCed by my mentor in the whole email thread and he read everything. When he noticed that I have struggled with a subsection of MCAT, he found a tutor for me immediately. This tutor has very similar background as I do, so the tutoring is extremely effective and I make a big improvement on that subsection. In the end I was accepted by my top choice medical school (MD) and my dream to go to medical school without gap years come true! If you had a dream, I would highly recommend Dr. Shirag's service and Dr. Michael for you to work with! It will come true!

Dr. Shemmassian and his team have been a valuable resource for my medical school application process. You can tell right away that Shemmassian Consulting is very professional and extremely knowledgeable about the medical school application process. During my initial consultation, Dr. Shemmassian provided me with unique feedback that I had yet to receive from any other advisor. Now months into the cycle, Dr. Shemmassian continues to give me great advice. He is also a very kind, calm, and approachable person! Dr. Dasani, another member of the consulting team, helped improve my personal statement immensely, and provided constructive and comprehensive edits. This is often hard to find, as others I have worked with edit hastily and fail to provide in depth feedback. Additionally, Michael has provided me with great one on one advice regarding my work and activities section. Overall, I am grateful to have discovered Shemmassian Consulting and would highly recommend them to anyone applying to medical or other schools.

Great service! I didn’t need help with all of my application and got help in areas I needed help with. This included personal statement review and interview prep. The company is a great help and everyone is very responsive. If I had any issues or concerns they were all quick to respond and let me know what I could do.
