How does MedEdits help college applicants?
MedEdits has worked with successful applicants both comprehensively and on individual aspects of the process, such as advising sessions, school selection, application materials, choosing extracurricular pursuits, seeking out competitions and awards to apply for, and selecting the best letter writer profile. We understand what specific qualities and achievements are required to gain admission to elite colleges and programs.
What is the “typical” STEM college applicant profile?
Applicants must demonstrate maturity, focus, and a commitment to their desired discipline that is exceptional for the “typical” high school student. There are certain criteria, such as GPA, course rigor, and standardized test scores, that applicants must earn to be competitive for selective colleges. At MedEdits, we ensure that your application materials showcase your strengths and distinctive passions to improve your chances of acceptance.
