Ace Your BS/MD Interview With Expert Coaching
Being prepared for your interviews is one of the most pivotal steps in your BS/MD journey. With one-on-one mock interviews, personalized feedback, and insider insights from Physician Advisors who’ve served on admissions committees, you'll walk into your BS/MD interview confident, expertly prepared, and ready to stand out.
The Value of High-Quality Interview Prep
The BS/MD interview is the single most important step in the admissions process. It’s about proving you’re ready to commit yourself to the field of medicine and the responsibilities that come with being a physician.
BS/MD interviews aren’t like ordinary college interviews. The stakes are higher, the questions are tougher, and the pressure is real. Practicing in realistic conditions is the only way to ensure you stay authentic, thoughtful, and self-assured when it matters most.
The strongest applicants don’t just “wing it.” They rehearse. Mock interviews recreate the intensity of BS/MD interview settings, from tricky ethical scenarios to the stress of back-to-back questions. With expert feedback, students build the resilience and adaptability needed to shine under pressure.

Your Interview Decides Everything
The BS/MD interview is the single most important step in the admissions process. It’s about proving you’re ready to commit yourself to the field of medicine and the responsibilities that come with being a physician.
More Than Numbers
Admissions committees already know your GPA and test scores. The interview evaluates qualities like maturity, empathy, communication, and motivation to pursue medicine.
Standing Out in a Competitive Pool
You can assume that every applicant who interviews is academically strong. What separates those who advance is their ability to tell a compelling story and show genuine readiness for the profession.
The Gateway to Acceptance
The interview is the deciding factor for acceptance. Performing well dramatically improves your odds of securing a coveted spot in a BS/MD program.

Performance Under Fire
BS/MD interviews aren’t like ordinary college interviews. The stakes are higher, the questions are tougher, and the pressure is real. Practicing in realistic conditions is the only way to ensure you stay authentic, thoughtful, and self-assured when it matters most.
High-Pressure Formats
Some interview formats, like Multiple Mini Interviews (MMI) and traditional panels, are designed to challenge how you think and respond under scrutiny. We prepare you for any type of interview style so you remain confident, answer with clarity, and avoid getting caught off guard.
Authenticity Matters
Committees want to see the “real you.” Rehearsed answers fall flat, while intentional practice helps you develop genuine, composed responses.
Preparation Builds Confidence
Simulating real interview scenarios with tough, admissions-style questions ensures you’re ready to perform at your best when the big interview day arrives.

Confidence from Realistic Practice
The strongest applicants don’t just “wing it.” They rehearse. Mock interviews recreate the intensity of BS/MD interview settings, from tricky ethical scenarios to the stress of back-to-back questions. With expert feedback, students build the resilience and adaptability needed to shine under pressure.
Simulated Scenarios
Practice sessions include challenging ethical prompts, complex problem-solving, and on-the-spot questions designed to mirror real admissions interviews.
Managing Stress & Nerves
By training in high-pressure conditions, students learn to stay composed, think critically, and respond confidently even when fatigue sets in.
Actionable Coaching
Every mock interview is followed by detailed, constructive verbal and written feedback, giving students clear next steps to refine their performance and gain a competitive edge.

Our program is designed to replicate the intensity of real BS/MD interviews, guided by BS/MD and direct medical school experts who have sat on admissions committees themselves. The result?

I had an amazing experience with MedSchoolCoach. Coming off a failed application cycle, I felt very lost and confused about how to navigate another one. Then, I met Dr. Nelson, and my outlook completely changed. He has single-handedly been one of the best mentors I have ever met. Always going above and beyond, inspiring me along the way, and genuinely wanting to see me achieve my dream. I know for a fact that my journey into medical school wouldn't be the same without him. I can't recommend him enough!
Zach: "I met Dr. Nelson and my outlook completely changed." -
MedSchoolCoach was amazing. Everyone at the company is very helpful and wants to see their clients succeed. My personal advisor was very responsive and helped me in every stage of the process. I truly feel that if I had not used MedSchoolCoach, I would not have gotten into my top choice for medical school. I sent out 12 secondaries, interviewed at 5 schools, and was accepted to 4 and waitlisted at the other.
Madi: "Interviewed at 5 schools, and was accepted to 4." -
“Dr. Lee is extremely nice and down to earth. She guided my son very patiently for almost 2 years and helped him get into BS/MD program. My son has a full ride for undergrad. This entire process was daunting. But Dr. Lee and Rob Rivas helped us through the extremely stressful application and interview process. We couldn't have done this without their help and guidance. We feel blessed to have found Dr. Lee and MedSchoolCoach. Thanks for everything!"
SA: "My son has a full ride..." -
“I honestly cannot speak highly enough about the experience of working with Michelle, Susan, Darlene, and Ken. Every one of them is extremely knowledgeable, warm, supportive, and excellent at their jobs. Without their guidance and support, I do not know if I would be sitting here writing a review about both of my children achieving their lifelong dreams of going to medical school. I know what a daunting process applying to medical school is, and having a team behind you like MedSchoolCoach can really make the difference between receiving acceptance letters versus denials. If you have a child applying to medical school, I cannot recommend a better service.”
CU: "Extremely knowledgeable, warm, supportive and excellent at their jobs." -
“Dr. Kachiu Lee and Rob Rivas helped me tremendously throughout the college admissions process. From brainstorming my personal statement to refining my supplementals, both Dr. Lee and Rob consistently provided thorough feedback in a short amount of time, ensuring my responses articulated my ideas in the best manner possible. Additionally, Dr. Lee was invaluable in prepping for my BS/MD interviews, giving great feedback on how to optimize my responses while also providing practice through several mock interviews. Overall, I would highly recommend both Dr. Kachiu Lee and Rob Rivas as advisors, especially if you are applying to college and are interested in BS/MD programs.”
David: "Invaluable in prepping for my BS/MD interviews." -
"Dr. Mandalia provided a plethora of good ideas to work into my responses that will help me strengthen my overall narrative and presentation. He noted my strengths and weaknesses and gave me many different ways to address my weaknesses. He is clearly incredibly knowledgeable about what interview committees look for and was able to elaborate on these points in great detail."
Conor O'Dowd: "Incredibly knowledgable [sic] about what interview committees look for." -
“The first time I took the MCAT without any preparation, I did not achieve the score I wanted to reach. When I found the resources available by the instructors in MedSchoolCoach, I was able to boost my score from a 500 to 527 in my most recent practice test in just 3 months! I am thrilled with this score, and beyond grateful for MedSchoolCoach <3”
Sabrina Sarwar: "From a 500 to 527 in my most recent practice test." -
I used their services to help me pass the basic science comprehensive exam and now for step 1 prep. I will most definitely continue to use their services for step 2 prep as well.
My tutor, Alexander Merriman, is out of this world! He can get in my head and really help me get to the route of my learning gaps. Alex can and will explain things to me a million ways to guarantee that I understand the concepts and will never get it wrong again. Not only has he helped me with knowledge onboarding and strategies for answering questions but also has helped me gain confidence and get out of any bad habits I built before starting on this journey with MedSchoolCoach.
Christina Tartaglia: "I will most definitely continue to use their services." -
I used MedSchool Coach to help me study for the USMLE Step 1 exam and was so thankful for their help! I highly recommend Abdul was a tutor! I was really nervous about the exam and really at a loss about how to the study before working with him. He provided a personalized approach and we systematically tackled all of my areas of weakness before the exam. After our sessions, I walked into test day feeling infinitely more confident than I would have been without his help!
Emma L: "walked into test day feeling infinitely more confident."
