Shemmassian Academic ConsultingReviews of shemmassianconsulting.com

Maybe the Worst decision I have made in the school path of my elder kids. Close to a Scam. They promise a lot and deliver poorly. They try to squeeze money from you with the use of tutors. And Forget about Dr. Shemm he is only there when he needs to sign you in. Even if you ask for him you wont see him again. I think the best thing they offer is their web page...just take all the info you can from there (with a grain of salt) and consider yourself lucky. Stay away. Stay with your conventional or regular College Advisor. They care a lot more about your kid.

The team was very responsive and very helpful. I felt that my consultants were very knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend!

This is a warning to anyone considering buying their secondaries. While it may be tempting to get example essays for all the schools in the US, it is actually very misleading and very overpriced. All of the essays, except the Noorda one, have been generated by ChatGPT. It is very obvious from the generic examples and excessive use of em-dashes for every single paragraph. You could just generate example essays yourself using AI for free and spare paying so much money. I really regret this purchase.

Shemmassian Academic Consulting did an incredible job helping me refine my vet school personal statement. Dr. Harries is very knowledgeable and supportive; he built my skills while helping me convey my story professionally. I was more than pleased with the advice and edits and felt much more confident in my application afterward. They truly know what they're doing, and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone applying to professional school!

My tutors were very supportive throughout my journey. They had separated the brainstorming and writing portions into different portions that helped me formulate my ideas and then write it into a well written essay. I definitely think that I would not be able to come up with the ideas through this consulting on my own. I achieved my goal despite seeking their aid late and not feeling very confident. They are very fast to respond and worked with me in all the steps for my medical school applications. Do yourself a favor and start early!

My experience with Shemmassian has been very poor. I used their tutoring services for months to prepare for COMLEX Level 1 and saw no improvement on my COMSAE scores. Be warned, this company is not qualified to provide tutoring services to osteopathic medical students. I was lied to multiple times and assured that they would be able to prepare me for my board exam, but the company has NO tutors employed with osteopathic medicine experience. I am down $11,000 now. Even worse, when I reached out to Shemmassian about my disappointment, my emails were ignored. I do not recommend them.

As with all pre med advising consulting services, working with an advisor is not cheap. However, among all the different companies, I truly believe that I got the best bang for my buck with Shemmassian. I specifically worked with Dr.Tran, who was an incredible source of knowledge and support throughout my application processs. Working with her has made this stressful process feel manageable and structured!

I had a great experience with my Shemmassian MCAT tutor. Seth was incredibly knowledgable, communicative, and supportive. He went above and beyond in every aspect and explained every concept in terms that were digestible and relatable. He was responsive and had a great sense of humor. 10/10 recommend!!
