Second Reading—Medical School

Rely on personal details to “show” not “tell.” Remove abstractions and unsupported assertions.

Address the question and ensure the essay’s organization reflects its topic while confirming sentence structure is varied and not detracting from your argument’s lucidity.

Capture the hurried admissions committee’s attention from the first sentence. Ensure the essay ends with a sense of closure and balance and that every paragraph aligns with your theme.

Make the reader like you by ensuring a clear voice free of the clichés which haunt so many personal statements. We seek to bring you to life as more than a collection of grades, extracurriculars, and test scores.

Ensure your writing style and grammar do not detract from your story, omitting all instances of wordiness, run-on sentences, errors in word choice, and other common mistakes. If a sentence or word does not contribute to your narrative, we either cut it or restructure it.

Confirm that transitions are smooth, that all paragraph breaks are natural, and that supporting details are adequate.

Synergize all the essays in a single application, in the event we receive more than one. The varying writing must present different but not contradictory facets of your personality and background.

We help you communicate to the committee that you are not only a standardized test score and a transcript but a real-life engaging personality who will thrive both in the classroom and on campus.
