Rohan was amazing! He made very helpful edits and has great insight on my topic..

Your review of my essays and suggestions really helped me elevate my story and stand out. I believe my essays were the reason I got into schools like UC Davis and UC Irvine when so many were rejected this year.

I got into my first choice program and school! I was accepted, and committed, to Sacred Heart University in the MSPAS physician assistant program. They only accept 42 students and I will go right through without having to apply for grad school. Thank you so much for thinking of me and for your help!
