How Our Pre Health Advising Program Works

Conduct a comprehensive background analysis

The first step is to understand your experiences, goals, and learning style so that we can pinpoint your strengths and weaknesses. We ask you to fill out our proprietary intake form, which is followed by an in-depth discussion with a senior consultant. These consultants are physicians, experts who have attended the best med schools in the country, and have helped hundreds of candidates get accepted at top schools.

Prepare a customized pre health advising plan

After your consultant understands your goals, shortcomings, and needs, they collaborate with you to create a tailored action plan. This includes tactical activities such as what academic courses to take, which research experiences to seek, what extracurricular activities to participate in, and much more.

Ensure execution through regular check ins

Through regular video and email check-ins, your consultant makes sure they are always there for you. Your consultant, who has been there and done that can also brainstorm how to reach out to a professor you want to work with over the summer or send a cold email to a doctor who you’d like to shadow.

Refine pre health advising plan

Academic plans, interests, and personal circumstances change. We understand that and make sure your pre health advising plan always reflects your latest needs and goals. We are happy to talk through how your experience in the drama club might factor into your application or your passion to travel can be incorporated into your med school persona. Our goal is to always be nimble, available, and informed.

You are ready to apply to med school

The rigorous, targeted prep that you have gone through gives you a leg up against your peers. Being deliberate about each aspect of your pre-med school experience helps create self awareness, which translated to a compelling narrative and effective application documents. Congratulations, you are now ready to conquer the med school application process!

Don't Take Our Word For It. Hear Their Stories.

"Inspira has such an extensive network of former adcom members and current interview panel members that their advice and intimate knowledge of the inner workings of business schools is a gold mine of information. Their team worked extensively with me to position each application in a way that met the specific criteria of each business school. Also, there were no restrictions on the number of edits or calls that I could ask for. This created such an open environment to discuss new ideas rather than being worried about the time on the clock."

“The Inspira team are really skilled storytellers and can find a way to create an intriguing narrative for even the most stereotypical candidate. I studied economics in undergrad at Yale, spent two years in banking, and now work in PE. I struggled to write a story that differentiated myself from my peers (who I knew were also applying to the same schools) and did not know how to make my path seem more unique. When I began working with Inspira, they spent a whole week just learning about my story and asking questions that got me to think in new ways about my life decisions. They used these conversations to create a persona doc, where they outlined my own personal history but in a way that was distinct and showed a clear path of professional progress. This really helped reframe my perspective of my own experience and enabled me to write application documents that showed why I was a unique applicant and why I was a good fit for my top schools. Their help with storytelling was a game changer for me!”

"No marketing, no salesy bs. Inspira is a pure results-oriented admission consulting firm. I worked with them on applications for 4 schools and was so impressed with their honest approach. Their advice on school selection was spot on and was backed by data and sound reasoning. The team that helped me with my applications included a former adcom member from HBS, a writing expert from Wharton, and my graduate coach, who has an IB background like me. No other firm has such a strong team and this was clearly reflected in how good my application turned out to be. Their inside information was incredibly helpful, and many of the questions that the HBS interview panel asked me were the same ones that Inspira had prepared me for. I was so impressed by their insights into the business schools."

"I was originally working with a different MBA admissions group, but ended up switching to Inspira Futures only five weeks before the Stanford deadline. It seemed risky at the time, but I ended up being so glad I made the change! Inspira went above and beyond, even working with me on weekends and evenings to ensure that my application was perfect. We went through multiple rounds of revisions and the Inspira team was always willing to hop on a call to brainstorm ways to include new anecdotes or ways to rephrase the experiences on my resume. They created such a friendly environment that I never worried if I was asking too many questions or asking for too much support in such a short time frame. Thank you so much guys!"

"As an international student from China, I was completely new to the MBA application process for US B schools. I really liked Inspira’s onboarding process which helps candidates like me get familiar with what different business schools are looking for. They also matched me with a consultant who perfectly understood what I needed. My consultant had work experience in China (and even spoke Mandarin!) and went to school in the US, so he was able to quickly identify differences in Chinese versus American application processes to make sure I didn’t make any of the mistakes common for international applicants. My consultant even helped develop a guide for my recommenders, who had limited experience writing the types of recommendations that schools like HBS expect. With their help I was able to frame my international experiences in a way that the HBS committee would not only understand but see as an asset for their incoming class. I would not have got into Harvard without his help!"

“I would not have gotten into Harvard Business School without help from Inspira. I went to a non-target undergrad and my work experience was at a non-blue chip company, so I did not think that I had a chance at a top school. But Inspira’s team has such a well-structured process that they made the stressful MBA application feel straightforward. They helped me decide which schools to target, showed me how to look at my history to find the best stories to use in my essays, and even shared advice on how to pick the best recommenders. Each phase of the journey was catered to serve my needs. I am so thankful for the Inspira team!”

“I was initially hesitant to get a consultant and spend that extra money, but on a whim decided to speak to an Inspira consultant for the 30 minute free consultation. I was really impressed by their deep knowledge of the MBA admissions process and their ability to talk me through my history in order to quickly identify accomplishments and anecdotes to highlight on my application. I ended up applying to six schools through Inspira, and got into all of them! Looking back, the investment was worth it because I don’t think I would have been able to get into my top choices without their help and I would’ve regretted not giving the process my all. I’m so excited for my next steps and am so grateful for the help of the Inspira team!”

"I spoke with 12 MBA admission consultants. Each firm used the “free 30-minute consultation” to sell their services and urged me to wire $10,000, whereas Inspira's call focused only on my background and the "Why" behind my decision to pursue an MBA. On top of that, unlike every other firm, Inspira DOES NOT ask for full upfront payment. They only charged me on a per-go basis which allowed me to manage my cash flow. They were incredibly flexible with my hectic schedule and the quality of their work was top-notch. I got into Wharton with a $92,000 scholarship!"

“I spoke with a bunch of admission firms before deciding to work with Inspira. The Inspira team seemed uniquely well-qualified, dedicated, and truly passionate about ensuring their candidates get into their dream schools. The consultant I worked with understood my professional background so well that just through the introductory call she was able to give me pointers on how to craft my story - all before we even started a formal engagement. I found that the biggest difference between Inspira and other groups is that the Inspira team is made up of former adcom members and senior industry professionals from relevant industries who can craft a compelling story based on my work. My background is in management consulting, so I really appreciated getting to work with a former Parthenon EY consultant who knew how to articulate those experiences on my application. I think this help was crucial in getting into Booth, where I will be going this fall!”

Hannah

Accepted to:

"I started with Inspira in order to review an application for one school and thought that all I needed was a quick review for structure in order to calm my nerves about the process. Once I started with Inspira, I realized I could really take all of my applications to the next level. My team was able to dissect my ideas in a way that I hadn’t been able to see and they connected the dots between my experiences so that I was able to present a coherent story in my application. My consultant really took the time to understand what I was trying to convey and tag teamed well with former adcom members on Inspira’s team to provide me a real life evaluation angle. I also loved the way that the team did not hesitate to push me. They demanded perfection but stayed supportive and encouraging. I am certain that I would not have received a scholarship to Columbia if it was not for their help. Working with Inspira was the best decision I made through the whole MBA process!"

FAQ's

I already have a pre health advisor at my college. How is this service different from what they provide?

A lot of colleges and universities have pre health advisors and additional resources for pre med students, but the following structural issues are very prevalent:

Not enough advisors: Unfortunately, most colleges and universities don’t have enough resources to hire the number of pre health advisors needed to offer personalized service to students. Pre health advisors are usually well meaning, but they can’t do much if the advisor to student ratio is 1:200 or more.
Quality is often lacking: Colleges and universities don’t have the resources to hire physicians, med school students, residents, or MDs from top schools. Our team consists of people who have been through the med school admissions process and successfully cracked it by getting into a top school. They have served on admissions committees and know what it’s like to be in med school. Their advice is personalized, informed, and relevant.
Not enough personalization: Pre health advisors aren’t able to create long-term personalized plans for their advisees. Every student goes through ups and downs during their college career. You might not be able to register for a course you wanted to do. It’s junior year, you just realized that you’re interested in drama and now you want to join the drama club. Adapting to these changes requires an in-depth understanding of a student’s background and preferences.

We help bridge some of these gaps that exist in today’s pre med advising infrastructure. You can think of us as a more informed, customized, and in-depth pre health advising service. Our advisors are accomplished, knowledgeable, and passionate about mentoring and guiding you. They have faced some of the same dilemmas that you are facing. Most importantly, they aren’t working with hundreds of students and can give you the personalized attention you need and deserve.

Why would I need a structured Pre Health Advising plan like the one your offer?

Applying to med school is akin to running a marathon. Doing well requires a lot of upfront preparation. Your success on race day will be determined by the years of effort you’ve put into being prepared for race day.

Similarly, medical schools look at what you’ve done across the last few years. They want to see how you’ve grown not just as a student, but also as a leader, and what makes you uniquely positioned to succeed in med school.

In addition to these more variable tasks, there are must haves such as getting a good MCAT score and engaging the right recommenders at the right time.

You might be among the 36% of MCAT takers who have to take the test more than once. Or you might realize that someone you thought might be your recommender isn’t a great fit any more. A structured Pre Health Advising plan can help you make sure you are always on top of your prep. We help you execute your plan A and create a plan B so that there are no surprises if something doesn’t go as planned.

Who will my Graduate Coach be?

We connect you with your Graduate Coach based on your experience, interests, and goals. Our team of Coaches comprises of physicians, graduates of top medical schools, and former admissions committee members who know what a top med school looks for.

For our Pre Health Advising service to be effective, it is important that your Graduate Coach is able to relate to your academic experience and co-curricular interests. We make sure that we pair you with the right person after you fill our intake form.

Should I choose this Pre Health Advising service or should I just wait to use the Complete End-to-End Application Support when I’m ready to apply to med school?

Attending the right med school can be life changing. It can set you on course to get into the right residency program and eventually, help you specialize in a field that genuinely interests you. Also, not getting into one of your top choice schools can be extremely costly. Reapplying is stressful and it also delays your entry into the workforce. This can easily translate to lost income of $150,000 or more depending on your specialty.

Given that getting into the right med school is such a high stakes decision, it is advisable to start preparing early. Our End-to-End Application Support service can help you craft an amazing application, but it cannot make you go back in time to fill potential gaps in your profile. We would recommend using this service if you want to be sure that all your i’s are dotted and t’s are crossed before you apply to med school.

Do you offer scholarships or discounts for this service?

Scholarships are offered for our Complete End-to-End Application Support service. Our mission is to help every medical school aspirant realize their true potential. As such, we don’t want finances to be an encumbrance in achieving your dream of attending a top medical school. We want you to be able to look back five, ten, or fifteen years down the line and be proud of yourself for having gone to a top medical school.

However, we also need to have the best Coaches on our team to deliver the best results for applicants. This talent is expensive. Hence, we are not able to offer scholarships for all our programs or applicants. Your Project Manager can tell you more about scholarships after you start working with one of our Coaches on an End-to-End Application support package. Candidates who use the Pre Health Advising service receive a 10% discount for the End-to-End Application Support Service.

Will you change my Coach if I’m not happy with them?

It is imperative that you and your Coach have a strong rapport with each other. Not being able to build a strong relationship can have an adverse impact on your medical school application outcomes.

However, it is also important to acknowledge that this relationship is not built overnight. It takes time for your Coach to get to know and vice versa. Hence, we don’t want to prematurely undo any progress that has been made. That being said, getting results for you and making sure you are happy with our service is what matters most to us.

We will leave no stone unturned to make sure that happens, and if that means we need to change your Coach, we will not hesitate to do so. If you feel that we are not meeting your expectations, please email our CEO at ceo@inpisraadvantage.com and someone from the CEO’s office will reach out to you within 48 hours.

What is the duration of this program? Is there any flexibility for when I can use this?

This program is tailored to your needs. Some students want to use our support across nine months whereas some want to use it across twelve months. Many prospects who are planning to apply in two years purchase this service twice. Schedule a call to learn more about how this service can be customized for your needs.

Will my Graduate Coach be the only person I interact with during the Pre Health Advising service?

Your Graduate Coach will be the person you work with. This helps us streamline communication and make sure that you have a clear point of contact who can help you make decisions. However, there is an army of people whose expertise you can leverage.

When you start working with us, you will be assigned a Project Manager in addition to your Graduate Coach. This Project Manager will make sure that your engagement is on track at all times. They will be there if you and your Coach require any additional resources from the Inspira network.

We have a vast network of researchers, former admissions committee members, and alumni who provide us in-depth information about how med school admissions are changing and what you can do to stay relevant. You get to leverage our entire team’s expertise by gaining access to this research.

What will my communication be like with my Coach?

After you fill out our intake form, we will connect with the Graduate Coach whose experience and expertise are the best fit for your background, goals, and experiences. Your Coach will set up a kickoff meeting with you to plan the engagement. They will work with you to determine concrete activities and tasks that you can start working towards.

After that, you and your Coach will have a video call every quarter to assess progress and realign goals and targets. They will work with you to solve any problems you are facing in achieving your goals. You will also have unlimited access to them via email.

What if I want to schedule more calls about my Pre Health Advising plan with my Graduate Coach?

We have streamlined the Pre Health Advising process through years of iterations. Calls with your Graduate Coach are supposed to help you set strategic direction and decide what activities to focus on. The next step is to execute the strategy.

If we are having to change our strategic plan every one to two weeks, something is not right. It takes time to get a research position once you decide what type of position you want. Deciding that you want to shadow a physician is an important step in the direction. However, the next step is to get that position.

We help you through each step, but emails are more efficient for some things. For example, if you want your Coach’s help on drafting a cold outreach template for a physician that you want to shadow, that can happen over email.

We believe that having four calls across the duration of the year is the right number.

Last but not the least, it is worth reminding ourselves of Parkinson’s Law at that point which states doing something will take as much time as you give it. We will never shortchange you, but we also want to make sure both you and your Coach’s time are utilized to the fullest.

Is my Coach also going to be my MCAT tutor?

Your Coach is great at a lot of things. In addition to helping you build your profile, they will work with you to think through MCAT prep strategies, provide feedback on your strategy, and share expertise on the resources you are planning to use.

However, tutoring is a very different type of engagement that requires your tutor to go into granular detail about where you need help. If you are looking for help with specific aspects of your MCAT prep, please check out our MCAT tutoring service .

Is helping me prep for medical school my Graduate Coach’s only responsibility?

Helping you get accepted to your dream medical school is your Graduate Coach’s top responsibility. However, the Coaching that they provide is about a lot more than that. It helps candidates identify academic and extracurricular activities they should participate in.

This makes the process extremely rewarding and enables candidates to grow as people and as professionals. Over 95% of candidates participating in this program have stated that they have felt more confident, less stressed, and have gotten better at problem solving after working with their Coach.
