GBShemmassian helped me get 6 interviews Shemmassian helped me get 6 interviews, 3 acceptances and 2 waitlists. Successful cycle. Highly recommend because advice in medical school applications is paramount.

GBPut your student's medical school application process in the hands of professionals! Our son used the Shemmassian over the last two medical school admission cycles. Though his first attempt was unsuccessful, Sid and Jammie from Shemmassian gave frank, honest feedback that as a parent it's sometimes difficult to give. It was also the best decision to get him working with professionals who know and understand what strengths need to be highlighted and what weaknesses need more work. It certainly is a long process, but the team kept him on schedule and focused. They prepped him for interviews and made sure he stressed what made him stand out. Could not be happier with the outcome!!

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! 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

GBExtracurricular Activities Presentation The talk by Dr. Shemmassian was so engaging! It really opened my eyes up to how complex extracurricular activities are on the medical school application and how important it is to have a theme. I learned a lot about examples of successful applications and how to apply them to my own experiences.
