The season, in their words.
"I applied twice on my own and got two interviews total. With a rebuilt personal statement and a real program list, I got eleven — and matched Internal Medicine on my third try."
"The mock interviews were harder than anything I faced in the real season. By January nothing could surprise me, including the visa questions I used to dread."
"They told me honestly which specialties were realistic instead of selling me a dream. That single conversation saved me a wasted year and $4,000 in applications."
