How we help

Editing tuned for Zucker SOM applicants

Three concrete moves we'll work through with you — calibrated to the specialties Zucker SOM students target.

1

Personal statement: anchor your story in the MD (allopathic) training model and patient mix that defines Zucker SOM — the same qualities that make the school distinctive. Reviewers can tell when a school's culture is reflected in the writing, and when it's not.

2

Experiences section: prioritise the rotations, research, and service that signal fit for the specialties Zucker SOM graduates most often enter — Internal Medicine, Pediatrics, and Anesthesiology — and for whatever you're targeting beyond them.

3

Signal & program list strategy: balance reach, target, and safety programs based on where MD candidates from New York historically interview and match.
