Shemmassian Academic Consulting Omdömen 379

Shemmassian takes great care with every step of your application. I personally enjoyed the extensive meetings to discuss and game plan every aspect of my application, from the structure of my essays to the construction of a simple email asking a professor for a letter of recommendation. Your adviser is personable, and actually takes time to understand your story and how that story influenced your decision to apply a certain university.

I had an excellent experience with Shemmassian Academic Consulting. I had the pleasure of working with Evan Chen, MD for medical application advising, personal statement, and W&A feedback. I especially appreciated the structured approach of my advising session and the personalized guidance tailored to my background and experiences. Dr. Chen was consistently supportive, offering detailed action plans, prompt and thoughtful feedback, and exceptional responsiveness throughout the entire process.

So helpful! It was so valuable having one-on-one tutoring sessions to close knowledge gaps and practice passages together. I would highly recommend!

Very great support and company for MCAT studying. Could not have done it without them.

I would absolutely recommend Shemmassian to anybody applying to medical school. I ended the 2024-2025 cycle with 5 acceptances (accepted at every school I interviewed at) and 7 total interview invites. I loved my advisors, Rose and Layla, along with my writing advisor, Logan. When matched with a writing advisor I didn't mesh well with, Shemmassian switched me to someone who better suited my needs. I am very pleased with the advice and assistance I received. My stats were not perfect, and I feel the support Shemmassian provided gave my application an edge. I am the first in my family to pursue a career in medicine and am so grateful I used Shemmassian to help me earn an acceptance in my first cycle applying.

It was my second time applying to medical school when I decided to work with Shemmassian Academic Consulting. After a discouraging first application cycle, I was seriously questioning whether I had it in me to apply again (to give you some context, I’m not a high-stat applicant). Despite my hesitation, I decided to consult with Dr. Shemmassian. During our conversation, he carefully reviewed my application, highlighted its strengths, and gave me the confidence I needed by demonstrating how a strategic shift in my approach could significantly improve my chances of acceptance.

I signed up for the Combination + Plan, and with the support of my dedicated admissions team, I was able to craft a standout personal statement and activities section that helped differentiate me from other applicants. As a result, I received interview invitations from some of my top-choice schools and ultimately earned two acceptances!

For anyone who feels anxious about the interview process, I cannot recommend the interview prep training from Shemmassian Academic Consulting enough. The personalized coaching was invaluable in helping me refine my responses, boost my confidence, and approach each interview with a clear sense of purpose. Thanks to their expert guidance, I felt truly prepared and ready to succeed.

My experience with Shemmassian Academic Consulting was excellent. I went to a large undergraduate institution and I am the first person in my family to apply to medical school, so I didn't have any intimate resources at my immediate disposal to tackle the daunting task of applying to medical school. My Shemmassian consultant did a great job at zooming out and planning from a big picture POV, and advising on small and specific details and strategies. They made this impossibly large task smaller and more digestible.

I worked with Shemmassian for my medical school application and found the service to be wonderful! I appreciated the long-term one-on-one guidance for all steps of my application, including MCAT studying, writing my essays, and interview prep. I'm thrilled with the service and really appreciate their wisdom and guidance throughout this process! I would highly recommend the MCAT tutoring service in particular :) Very extensive and thorough, with a great tutor, and helped me increase my score by 19 points from start to finish!

Shemassian did a great job providing quick and helpful responses in all parts of the application process, and were always willing to go the extra step to make sure I felt comfortable throughout the year. If I had to apply again, I'd definitely work with Shemmassian without a doubt.

From the moment I inquired about Shemmassian Academic Consulting to the end of my time with them, they were incredibly responsive, helpful, supportive, and skilled. They had the necessary experienced consultants to help out with various tasks that I needed while going through my residency application.

I am joining this company and writing work

I truly enjoyed working with someone who provided honest and constructive feedback. The detailed criticism was both motivating and helpful, allowing me to clearly understand where and how I could improve. Additionally, I appreciated how quickly the person who assisted me responded to emails texts and calls, allowing me to stay on track for my deadlines.

Wonderful guidance! They did an incredible job of providing feedback and guidance throughout the process of apply to residency. I highly recommend!

The people trained to do interview prep for Shemmassian are very experienced. Since they have done so many interviews, they understand it on a far deeper level. Not only that, they have helped hundreds of people prepare for their interviews before you and they know how to guide you in the right direction. Very helpful for me

As a practicing psychiatrist, I have often consulted the SAC website in encouraging students who are in the admission process to medical schools. I find the information quite accurate to my own experience, although I know the process has become even more intense and more competitive. Several of my students have successfully gained admission. I often suggest students investigate SAC programs in the climb to medical school.

All of the people I worked with to prepare for my interview were very knowledgeable and helped prepare me to the best of my ability. I highly recommend their services to give you the best chances of admission to whichever program you are applying.

I would absolutely recommend this service to people applying to medical school. The services are so worth the investment. There are endless examples to help you brainstorm your personal statement and I got amazing feedback from the feedback service. I feel so much more confident in my personal statement!!

I have really been enjoying my experience with Shemmassian Academic Consulting. I have gained a much deeper insight into the medical school process through working with my advisor. All of my questions have been thoroughly answered, and the feedback on my writing has helped me transformed my essays into work I feel confident in and proud of.

I had an amazing experience with Shemmassian Academic Consulting! My team, Morcos Nakhla and Marissa Eller were fantastic! Anytime I had questions I was able to email them and receive a thoughtful response with a quick turnaround! I feel they clearly have a deep understanding of the admissions process and advice to maximize one’s application! They kept me on track and focused, regularly checking in and providing me with organizational resources to assure I get quality work done in the appropriate time frame. They provided thoughtful edits and suggestions to my writing. I was very pleased with how my personal statement and application turned out! Applying to medical school is a daunting process but having Shemmassian Academic Consulting to support me made it much more manageable! I am happy to say I have received multiple acceptances to medical school!

Investing in Shemmassian Academic Consulting was among the best decisions I have ever made. I contemplated the investment at first, as the amount of upfront money due was intimidating. I found comfort and motivation to invest in SAC via reviews of students and my initial meeting with Dr. Shemmassian. I am writing this review to encourage those students who are contemplating this investment in the same manner that I was. I invested in SAC after two unsuccessful application cycles. At this point, I was 3 years removed from my undergraduate studies working a job that was intended to supplement my medical school candidacy. Ultimately, my dream of going to medical school and becoming a physician was beginning to seem very bleak. However, SAC restored my confidence in myself as an applicant and eventual physician. They dissected my previous AMCAS applications to help me find ways to strengthen my candidacy. Not only did they assist me in finding opportunities to fill the weaknesses of my application, but they pushed me to creatively write about my impact on my past and current endeavors to impress admissions committees. After AMCAS was complete, the creative writing process continued throughout secondary applications to put forth the best possible application for each school. Ultimately, if you are an applicant with average statistics and are worried about ever being accepted into medical school, look no further than SAC. Alternatively, if you have outstanding statistics and impressive endeavors, investing in SAC will help you obtain acceptance letters from the prestigious medical schools of your dreams. I honestly cannot speak higher of my experience with SAC. Moreover, the difference between the application cycles I endured alone compared to the application cycle I tackled with the help of SAC is highlighted by multiple acceptance letters and many interview opportunities. If the investment price scares you like it once scared me, ask yourself: "Would I put a price on an acceptance letter from a medical school?" As someone who has gone through 3 application cycles, I can assure you that this process is something you will only want to do once. Investing in SAC is a surefire way to ensure that your first application cycle will be your last application cycle.
