Great feedback and improvements for the best price I could find

All of the feedback I received from Meredith was really detailed and explained why certain changes would improve my personal statement. I got a lot of help in my sentence structure which helped my essay become more put together. At the same time, it still sounds like my essay, just enhanced which is exactly what I needed! I ended up going for two edits just to get a review on my new restructured statement as well.

Great experience!

Super affordable and gave great feedback! I felt stuck with my personal statement but my reviewer helped to give me topic ideas while also editing my essay in a way that maximized my character count and actually gave me more room to elaborate on my experiences. Feedback was given very quickly, there were no long wait times. 100% recommend

Awesome service for med school cycle

Motivate MD provided clear, helpful feedback regarding my personal statement, activities descriptions, and secondary essays. In addition, they helped me prepare for interviews through mock interviews. All of these services were wonderful. With their help, I was able to get multiple acceptances. Working with their team and Becca was also very smooth. They have a quick turnaround and are very flexible to work with your schedule. Highly recommend! Thanks.

Highly recommend

Highly recommend for anyone who does not have a family member or friend in medicine. I wrote my personal statement, had a number of non-medical people look at it, and all thought it was fine. After submitted it for review on Motivate MD, I found out I was missing key elements in both structure and content.

Motivate MD is AMAZING!

My experience with Motivate MD has been nothing short of fantastic. With their guidance and resources, I got accepted into 6 schools, in both MD and DO programs! They have a large database of medical students that can help you with each part of the application process depending on which systems you are applying through (AMCAS, AACOMAS, or TMDSAS). I started from the very beginning with Natalie, and she guided me through my personal statement, activity descriptions, secondaries, etc. She was integral to my application process and helped me articulate my passions and showcase my voice/personality through my essays! I did not feel forced to follow a cookie-cutter mold for my application, and Natalie really empowered me to write about what felt true to who I was (and clearly it worked out). I could not speak more highly of her!! The interview prep resources were also very helpful in receiving personalized feedback from medical students. I utilized Motivate MD up until the very end of my cycle, even asking for help on how to send thank you and update letters. If you are on the fence about using Motivate MD's services, do it! I genuinely feel like I got my money's worth with all of the help and advice I received, and my application would not have shined as much without them.

ACCEPTED TO TOP CHOICE!

I am so thankful that I had mock interviews through Motivate MD, because I truly think I would not have been able to be accepted to med school without the practice! Madihah and Alejandro were extremely helpful and prepped me for any and all possible questions during my mock interviews. I am so thankful for all the help and the very helpful feedback after each session, which allowed me to improve dramatically in time for my interview. Becca was amazing in coordinating mock interviews with very short notice time from me. I would 100% recommend in investing in Motivate MD to successfully enter med school on the first try!
