MotivateMD is the best! I cannot recommend Emerson enough!!!! She was so so helpful throughout all steps of the medical school application process (MD and DO primary application, secondaries, creating school list, personal statement, interview prep, etc). She always provided such thoughtful edits and suggestions for my essays. She had very insightful writing tips and wording suggestions, and a very quick turnaround time. Emerson is so positive and fun to work with, and I truly felt genuinely cared for throughout the whole process! Her encouragement and positivity is a game changer for this very long process :)
Monica, It was such an honor to work with you! We are grateful you trusted our team to walk alongside you through your journey toward med school! We are fortunate to have many coaches like Emerson on our team! We wish you the best as you prepare to start medical school in the fall! - McKenzie
Every advisor is so helpful. Special shout out to Chris who helped me with my primary application, school list, etc. He was always honest with his feedback and so positive, reminding me that there is a light at the end of the tunnel! Thanks for all of your help Motivate MD and Chris!

I was behind on my personal statement, but MotivateMD helped me edit nearly 10 drafts of my personal statement and activity/work sections in just one month. Thanks to their guidance, I was able to submit my primary application within a week of AMCAS opening! I had brainstorming sessions with different coaches, which gave me fresh perspectives and ideas. Their support became even more invaluable when I started receiving secondary applications. I worked with coaches familiar with the schools I was applying to, which helped me write detailed, tailored responses. MotivateMD doesn’t just edit grammar, spelling, or word count. They provide concrete suggestions to make your writing stronger and more compelling. The biggest advantage is working with actual medical students and residents from a range of schools, many with admissions committee experience. They understand the process firsthand and provide guidance that is practical and realistic. They are quick to respond, incredibly helpful, and I truly wouldn’t have made it through the application process without them. Whether you need help with writing, interviews, CASPer, or general advice, MotivateMD is an affordable, high-quality resource I cannot recommend enough!
Nicole, Thank you so much for your kind words! We are grateful for the opportunity to work with you throughout this application cycle, on all aspects of your application! We really appreciate you and wish you nothing, but the best this cycle! McKenzie
Thank you for all the help with my essays! I found the advice and grammar correction very useful. I was very happy with how quickly the feedback was given back to me. I thought the editors were knowledgeable on important information to add to my writing to make my essays more attractive. Thanks again!
Emily, Thank you for your kind words! We enjoyed helping you and are grateful we could be part of your journey! We wish you the best of luck throughout the application cycle! McKenzie
Good program overall.
Thank you so much for sharing your feedback. I’m very sorry for the confusion around your daughter's essay review. In this case, the essay was submitted without the original prompt, so the reviewer didn’t have the right context to work from. Still, we believe our editors should always pause and reach out for clarification rather than risk giving unhelpful feedback. We’re making changes to be sure that step isn’t missed again. I truly appreciate your kind words, and I want you to know I’ll be keeping a close eye to make sure your daughter feels supported every step of the way. Becca

Nick, Thank you for your kind words! It has been a joy working with you and your family throughout this process! We look forward to preparing you for interviews soon! McKenzie
Very responsive, quick and guarenteed turn-around time. Advisors truly care for their students to succeed. Service + advisors are all respectful and considerate of your own time.

Alexandra, Thank you for your review! We are grateful you allowed us to be part of your medical school journey and wish you nothing but the best!! McKenzie
I used the writing review products which I liked a lot. I got feedback from a few readers on different versions of my essays, which gave me good perspective on how my writing came across. A couple readers were slower in returning feedback but some of them were very quick. The comments were very useful in my editing process. Everyone involved was friendly and provided good encouragement along with the edits.
Hannah, Thank you for your review! We are glad you found value in our editing team! Our turnaround time is 2-3 days, as the volume of requests increase the time trends to be closer to the 3 days. We are grateful we were able to be part of your journey and wish you the best of luck! McKenzie
