What Applicants Have to Say

I was applying for Dermatology, and at every point in the process I could feel how intense the competition was. I was thrilled to get 6 interviews, but I also knew that I was up against some amazing applicants, so I wanted to make sure I did everything I could to set myself apart from the competition. The course really helped, and I even had one of my interviewers tell me that my response to what are your strengths was just great. The time that I invested in going through the course really paid off.

I had failed to match in previous cycles, so I was so excited when I received two Family Practice interview invites. One of my classmates highly recommended this interview course, and said that it had helped him, so I signed up. I was really glad I did. Before, I was spending a LOT of time going through posts and videos online. I thought that was interview prep, but after I went through the course I realized that a lot of the advice from the blogs and videos was really generic, and actually made you sound like every other applicant. With the help of the course, I was able to develop really strong and unique responses, and I know that that made all the difference.

When I was applying for ENT, I was thrilled to get interviews, but knowing how competitive ENT was, I didn’t want to take any chances. (I knew upperclassman who had gone on multiple interviews, and still failed to match in the previous two years.)  I worked really hard on the questions, trying to make sure my responses would help me stand out, which is where this course really helped.  Match day was great-because I found out that I matched at my #1 choice!

This course was excellent. As an IMG who received an interview from one of my dream internal medicine programs, I wanted to make sure I made the most of this opportunity. The course helped so much: it showed me how to highlight my strengths and prepare memorable responses. I was thrilled to match at my dream program, and I know that my interview performance was a key factor in that.

I was nervous going into interviews, because my advisor had told me that my low step score was considered a red flag. I signed up for the residency interview 101 course because I wanted to learn how to address my red flag. The course definitely did that well, but it also showed me how to highlight my strengths, and especially how to highlight how I was a perfect fit for the program. And it worked!

— Current Psychiatry Resident

I was very unsettled entering the interview season because I feared that all applicants could easily sound the same to an interviewer. The course was very thorough and filled with robust examples. It challenged me to speak boldly and confidently about my accomplishments. It taught me how to demonstrate that I was an ideal, unique candidate. Would I recommend this course? Yes!
