"Elizabeth truly went above and beyond to support me throughout the long and stressful medical school application process. She spent time reviewing all the supplemental material and essays I sent her in great depth to help craft a personal statement that best captures my strengths and unique attributes as an applicant. Although we were never physically together to work on my application, she was always very responsive and reliable with her communication through phone calls and emails.

In addition to her helpful comments on all my primary essays and activities section, Elizabeth also helped polish all the minor grammatical errors and check the overall flow of my writing. Even after I had submitted the essays, Elizabeth showed no hesitation in sending me additional material to best prepare for my interviews. She has been very understanding and accommodating throughout the cycle, and I could not express my gratitude enough. I highly recommend working with Elizabeth to anyone applying to medical school!"

"The medical school application process is long and difficult. But, with Elizabeth I was able to get ahead on the primary and secondary applications for medical school. Elizabeth was integral to my application process. She helped me craft a personal statement that turned my experiences into cohesive stories that showcased my strengths and my desire to become a physician. She also helped me address some "red flags" in my application in a way that I could show my academic and personal growth. Additionally, she helped guide me on how to respond to secondary prompts and how to make them the most effective with limited word counts. Elizabeth’s help minimized my stress during this process and need to endlessly search the internet for best medical school application tips. I highly recommend her services for anyone applying to graduate school!"

"I wanted to let you know that I was admitted to many fine universities, including the University of Michigan, but I decided to attend UC Berkeley in the fall. Although I hoped to go further from home for greater independence, I just couldn’t pass up all the great opportunities that will be afforded to me at Cal. I made my parents promise to allow me to live my own independent college life, even though I am close to home! It has been an absolute pleasure working with you over this past year and I cannot thank you enough for helping me on my college journey. I know I would not be in this position without you!"

"It was so great working with you and I know I wouldn’t have been able to make it through the college admissions process, or even just figure out which colleges I liked, without your help. I really appreciate everything you did to help me get through it!"

"It's hard to believe it's been 8 months since we started working with you, and it went so fast! Thanks again for all the guidance and advice you gave all of us during this time. We are very appreciative and Ascher is excited for the fall at Lehigh University - you ROCK!"

"Thank you for all the guidance you gave my daughter, Julia, last year. She wanted to go to OT school but her grades were not good enough, so you recommended she go to OTA school instead as a bridge to an OT program if her grades were good.

She was accepted to Mercy College (in Dobbs Ferry, NY), received a handful of aid and scholarships and started their OTA program fall of 2021.  She works in the morning at her job at the doctors office and goes to school in the evening.  Her GPA is a 3.9 and is loving every minute of it.

She had her first day of fieldwork today at a local hospital and her OTR was so impressed with her knowledge base and ability to be hands-on right away. She already told her that they would love to have her for her "fieldwork 2" in the fall. She came home exhausted but with a big smile on her face.

Thank you for the support and guidance you gave her to take this path when others told her to find a completely different career path. She is doing exactly what she is supposed to be doing."
