What Students Say

Dr. Katzen is an amazing interviewer and he really goes over everything you need to know. I would recommend this service to any pre-med who is unsure about their interviewing ability or the strength of their responses. MedSchoolCoach really does give you the feedback you need to crush your interview.

I specifically used Dr Harvey Katzen and the improvement from my first mock interview to the second was unbelievable. Dr Katzen gave me honest feedback that made me better and it also gave me the confidence to do well.

Dr. Katzen was a fantastic advisor, and he responded to my emails very promptly and took the time to answer my questions very thoroughly!

In the beginning of the medical school application process, I was worried that my mediocre GPA and MCAT scores would not make the cut. However, my medschoolcoach mentor really helped me build confidence in my application and was there EVERY step of the way! My mentor, Dr. Katzen, was incredibly helpful when it came to personal statement edits and interview prep. I was offered seven interviews throughout the cycle and will be starting medical school this month! I highly recommend this service to all pre-med students!!!
