This package is for aspiring dental school candidates looking to get into their dream school with support from a seasoned coach. Get expert help throughout the entire application process, from start to finish — personal statements, recommendations, secondaries, activities lists, and more. Here's a full overview of what this package includes: 1. Personalized Coach Matching: After enrolling, you'll complete a detailed survey and be matched to the perfect coach for your target dental schools and individual goals. 2. Initial Kickoff and Planning Session: Following the coach pairing, kick off the process by diving into your background, professional and personal experiences, dream schools, career aspirations, and more. Together, you and your coach will develop a customized plan specifically tailored to your dental school application journey. 3. School Selection: Collaborate closely with your coach to compile a list of optimal dental schools that align with your profile, aspirations, and preferences. 4. Application Strategy: Your coach will help you identify your unique strengths and advantages as an applicant and plan how to effectively showcase those strengths throughout your dental school application. If you're concerned about any part of your application profile, like your DAT score or GPA, your coach will help you develop an application that proactively addresses these areas and effectively spotlights your strengths. 5. Personal Statement Brainstorming, Advising & Editing: Get expert guidance and feedback from your coach as you plan, draft, and edit your personal statement. Feel confident that your narrative effectively highlights your motivations, experiences, and aspirations. 6. Activity Descriptions: Work closely with your coach to decide which extracurricular activities, experiences, awards, and honors to include and how to describe them in a way that fits your application's broader narrative. 7. Letters of Recommendation: Strategize with your coach about choosing potential recommenders, making recommendation requests, and supporting recommenders so you can be sure you're getting strong letters of recommendation. 8. Complete Application Review: Your coach will conduct a meticulous review and give you feedback on all your application materials. When everything is ready, submit your application with total confidence. 7. Secondary Essays Advising & Editing: Craft your secondary essays with personalized advising and editing support from your coach, ensuring they align seamlessly with each dental school's specific requirements and ethos (up to 4 revisions per essay). 8. Interview Coaching: Prepare thoroughly for dental school interviews through mock interview sessions conducted by your coach, equipping you with the skills and practice you'll need to ace the interview. Roleplay difficult-to-answer questions and conduct one full mock interview per school. 9. Supplemental Support Strategy: Develop a strategic plan for networking and securing supplemental letters of support to bolster your application, where applicable. 10. Final Review: Your coach will conduct a comprehensive review and provide final edits on all application materials to ensure they are polished and aligned with your overall narrative and objectives. 11. Waitlist Strategy (if applicable): If you're waitlisted, your coach will guide you to develop a targeted action plan to optimize your chances of getting in off the waitlist. Applying to dental school can be stressful and competitive — with this package, you're drafting a world-class coach onto your team to help you with every step of this process. They'll support you constantly, share honest/constructive feedback freely, and keep you on the right track. If for any reason it becomes clear that your coach is not the right fit, we'll help you find another coach that can help you get to the finish line successfully.

Dental School…. Let’s get you ACCEPTED!
During my 3rd and 4th years of college, COVID-19 years, I engaged in countless hours of shadowing, service, and studying for the DAT. Additionally, my wife and I were lucky to have a child born two months before finals in the second to last semester of our undergraduate studies. With my wife’s support, I was able to surpass my goal on the DAT and we both graduated from BYU-Provo within 4 years of starting. I applied to 12 dental schools, interviewed at six, and was accepted and offered a position at all six schools beginning in the fall of 2022. I am currently a first-year dental student attending the University of Utah School of Dentistry. I have founded a Public Health Club and am a member of the Pediatrics and Business clubs among participating in a handful of others. Additionally, I am currently working on becoming an AHEC Scholar and am working to figure out a schedule to graduate with a dual degree MPH/DDS with the Dean of my school.
