GBGreat support through the application process Company did exactly as they advertised and were 100% transparent. They were a tremendous help with the writing portion and helped me secure an acceptance at USC along with other interviews I am waiting to here back from including a T20

GBVery personal and responsive support - admitted to the Renaissance SOM The Shemmassian team gave me impressive support throughout the whole application process. They looked at my application and helped curate a list of schools that were realistic, were very attentive when helping me edit my primaries and secondaries, and guiding me through high yield and more nuanced interview questions (both traditional and MMI). They also made sure that I was emotionally supported. Overall it gave me peace of mind knowing I could rely on this team and made the whole process significantly less stressful. I would highly recommend their services.

GBAmazing Experience with SAC - Admitted to 8 MD Schools! I had a wonderful experience using SAC for both MCAT tutoring and consulting during the application cycle (I'll focus on the latter for this review). With SAC's support, I received 10 interviews, which turned into 8 acceptances, including a T-5 school and many other top programs. My primary consultant, Dr. Jothishankar, was extremely knowledgeable about the application process and always available to help. He checked in very frequently, and guided me through every step of the process, from my first primary drafts all the way through deciding what school I would attend. The writing support was also second to none. SAC really stands by their 48 hour turnaround commitment, and it was really comforting to know that I'd have edits so soon after I submitted a secondary to the team. There also seems to be a lot of support in the background to make sure that students are covered if the primary consultant or writing support staff member is away for a few days -- everything was seamless and well communicated to me. Also, as a type-A person, I really appreciated SAC's organization and transparent communication. Overall, SAC made this process stress-free and manageable, which is priceless. Could not recommend more!

GBAmazing experience! I wholeheartedly recommend Shemmassian Academy with no reservations. I truly believed my academic career was doomed due to my low GPA in my bachelors degree. Dr. Imsande is one of the more compassionate and professional people I have ever met. She helped me see and believe in my strengths and the value I am able to bring to the medical field. She helped me believe in myself, and did an amazing job at perfecting my personal essay and guiding me throughout the whole application process. The whole team was extremely supportive and I could not have met my goals without them. This was the best investment in my academic journey! -Leo

GBWorth Every Penny Everyone I interacted with was very responsive and helpful. I had a lot of questions about the cycle that I couldn't find consistent answers to online and it was incredibly helpful to have someone that could answer all of my questions and help guide me through the entire process. I loved that is was a collaborative environment. They always respected my preferences and point of view and gave constructive advice. If I had a busy or something going on, they were flexible about my turn around time. There are a lot of parts in the medical school application cycle. Having someone help you stay on track and manage all of the different parts make a huge difference. I would highly recommend using their services. It is worth the investment.
