Put a Former UCLA Medical School Admissions Committee Member on Your Side!

After a lot of hard work and some luck, I was able to get into UCLA, one of the top schools in the country. I was jumping off the walls when I got that letter!

This site is designed to help you get that acceptance letter of your dreams.

My answer is: Yes! Probably my most important qualification to you is my experience on the UCLA medical school admissions committee. Here I learned exactly  what it takes to get into a top school. 

I also draw from my own experiences as a fourth year UCLA medical student (accepted as a non-California resident), the experiences of my colleagues and solid resources to provide you this information. 

I want you to succeed! I did it and you can too!

1.Start making yourself a must-have applicant. Right now!

To do this you'll need to understand exactly what admissions committees are looking for. You'll also need to understand the admissions process from start to end. You'll find this little-known information here.

2. Research and decide on the best schools for you.

You can check out the top 100 schools here. Also visit my list of schools page. I'm adding more schools all the time! You can also see the things I think are important in choosing your best schools here.

3. Know, meet and exceed the requirements.

You'll find the requirements and my picks to put you ahead of the class here.

4. Develop a strategy for the MCAT.

This monster of a test has a big impact on your competitiveness as an applicant. Find out how to ace this test here. You'll also find my reviews of MCAT Prep Courses here.

5. Stand out in the application process.

Now that you understand what schools are looking for, you also need to understand how to fill out your application, interview like a pro, and write a stunning personal statement.

6. Finance your medical education.

People mainly use scholarships and loans, but there are other options. Find out about these little-known options here.

That should help you get started! As you can see, there's a lot that goes into getting accepted. That's why I've created my eBook,
