Hi Reader - I hope you're having a restful Sunday! This week, I’m reflecting on time with friends and diving into the next phase of the medical school application cycle. Let's get into it!

🚨Before we dive in, I want to share two time-sensitive deadlines🚨

📝 72-Hour Application Review Turnaround Ends Tonight!​
If you need a fast review of your personal statement, activities section, or secondary essays, this is your last chance to guarantee feedback within 72 hours. After tonight, standard turnaround times apply.

💬 Last Week for 1:1 Sessions!​
This is the final week to book a one-on-one session with me before my away rotation begins. Whether you need help with your school list, application timeline, or just want to talk through your premed journey, grab a spot before they’re gone!

What's New with You?

I have been ON the road, finishing out my last round of trips this summer. On Monday, I hit the road early and did a Girls' Day in Columbia, SC. I caught up with two of my best friends from high school, and we ate brunch, shopped until we dropped, then sat in the mall chitchatting and sipping our Starbucks until we had to head home.

Then, I headed to Charleston, SC, for a quick 48-hour trip with another high school bestie and had another amazing beach day followed by a beautiful rainbow. It has been so sweet catching up with all of my friends while being home this summer!

USMLE Step Prep

We are continuing this series, sharing my favorite resources for Step 1 -

First Aid Rapid Review

Close to your test day and just need a quick review of high-yield topics? I loved the first aid rapid review content but needed a simpler way to review it. Luckily, someone made an amazing YouTube video series covering the First Aid Rapid Review, so you can listen and review on the go (or while comfortably in your bed)!
