She is a dedicated individual who gave me insightful suggestions and advice on filling out my application, requesting strong letters of recommendation, and drafting a personal statement that highlighted my strengths and passion for pursuing medicine. Connie's timely responses especially helped when I was overwhelmed with secondary applications. Her confidence in my ability to matriculate into medical school helped me get over my own self doubts. I would recommend her to anyone who wants the best chance at a succesful application cycle. Thank you, Connie!”
