- Admissions Consulting
"Dr. Miller is an ace in navigating the medical school admissions process. She has insider knowledge regarding everything from studying for the MCAT to writing an excellent personal statement to producing impeccable applications."
MDadmit specializes in non-traditional and re-applicants.
MDadmit, led by Dr. Miller, will assist you with every step of the often confusing and stressful medical school admissions process. MDadmit provides medical school admissions consulting services to anyone considering applying to medical school whether you are still in high school, a college pre-med, or a non-traditional applicant heading back to school after years in the work force. Though it is certainly best to start early, MDadmit can give you an advantage at any stage of the admissions process.
Application Analysis MDadmit knows what medical school admissions committees look for in an applicant. Given her experience working as a Harvard pre-med tutor, admissions consultant, and professor, Dr. Miller has the inside knowledge to help you improve your medical school application and achieve success. MDadmit performs a thorough review of your academic, extracurricular, research, community service, and clinical activities and provides specific advice on how to enhance your application. We also provide an honest assessment of your chances of gaining acceptance to medical school.
MCAT Timing Fitting the MCAT into your busy schedule can be difficult. Given the current weight admissions committees place on the MCAT, maximizing your score should be a priority. MDadmit helps you determine the best time to take the MCAT taking into account your current commitments, plans to take a MCAT course, and temporal proximity to premedical classes.
Recommendation Selection Recommendations are a vital yet often overlooked part of the medical school application. Deciding who to ask for recommendations is only the beginning of this important process. MDadmit assists you with all aspects of obtaining medical school recommendations including who, how, and when to ask.
Where to Apply Medical school applicants often underestimate the competitiveness of medical school admissions and apply to fewer schools than required to maximize success. MDadmit creates a comprehensive list of school suggestions based on the strength of your application, learning style, long-term goals, and location desire. We also offer advice on foreign and DO schools.
Waitlist Strategy The wait list is a dreaded state of limbo faced by many medical school applicants. On the positive side, being "wait listed" means that you still have a chance of gaining acceptance. MDadmit works with you to develop a formal strategy, including letters of intent and strategic updates, to turn a wait list into an acceptance.
Final Decision Deciding where to spend your next four years can be challenging. MDadmit helps you choose a medical school based on your desired location, curriculum, student body, finances, and long-term goals.
Admissions consulting is usually performed via phone/Skype and e-mail In-person consultation is available in the Washington, DC area E-mails requiring greater than five minutes for response are charged at the hourly fee All phone calls are charged at a minimum of 15 minutes

- Essay Editing
“Dr. Miller is an unbelievable editor. Without actually writing anything for you herself, she will take the best bits of the glob of chaos that you have regurgitated onto the page, wave her magic wand, and suddenly you will see that you are a better writer than you thought you were.”
The medical school admissions process involves a tremendous amount of writing. Medical school admissions committees read hundreds of applications each year. How will your application stand out?
At MDadmit, we use an editing team led by Dr. Miller, a published author who has spent the last decade editing hundreds of medical school essays. Unlike other editing services that simply provide general comments, MDadmit provides comprehensive edits and works closely with you to improve your writing skills.
AMCAS Personal Statement The AMCAS personal statement is your time to shine. You have 5300 characters to explain why you want to be a physician and why a medical school admissions committee should accept you into its medical school class. And you must do this in a compelling, creative, and honest way. Not an easy task! Our editing team helps turn your personal story into a unique and persuasive statement.
The MDadmit AMCAS personal statement service involves two edits. The first edit focuses on essay structure, thesis statement strength, and essay flow. The second edit takes a more micro approach to correct grammar, change passive to active voice, and ensure best word choice. We cannot write your essay, but we can help you create the best AMCAS personal statement possible.
AMCAS Work/Activities Many medical school applicants overlook the importance of well-written AMCAS work/activities essays. Even stellar extracurricular experiences can be lost in a poorly written AMCAS work/activities section. MDadmit helps you choose what activities to include and thoroughly edits the paragraph descriptions of each activity.
Each MDadmit AMCAS work/activities service involves two comprehensive edits.
Secondary Essays Medical school secondary essays can be incredibly overwhelming. After receiving your AMCAS application, many medical schools send a secondary application, known as a “secondary,” often involving one to ten supplemental essays. If you have applied to 30 schools, you may be writing over a hundred secondary essays!
MDadmit not only edits your secondary essays, but also helps you draft responses to each of the most common essay questions that can be used with multiple schools. This approach helps you create exceptional essays and reduce the stress of secondary season.
Given the varied length of medical school secondaries, MDadmit performs one comprehensive edit billed based on word count.
Other Edits The medical school admissions process often involves writing letters outside of the standard AMCAS personal statement, AMCAS work/activities, and secondary essays. All communication with medical schools must be well written.
MDadmit edits thank you notes, updates, and letters of intent.
