Why Premed Catalyst works

Most premeds don’t struggle because they aren’t capable. They struggle because they’re guessing, chasing random opportunities, and carrying stress that comes from not having a real plan.

Your Own
Premed Mentor

In our Premed Mentorship Program and Application Cycle Advising program, students get a dedicated premed mentor from a top medical school with easy access for quick questions and decision points. Less waiting, less second-guessing, more momentum.

Former Admissions Committee Experience

Applications and progress are reviewed by a former medical school admissions committee member. Feedback is direct, specific, and grounded in what actually moves decisions, so your narrative, school list, and execution get refined before mistakes become expensive.

Data-Driven
Improvements

Our students receive more than triple the number of interviews a regular premed gets. For on-time applicants, we have a 100% acceptance rate. Every year, we look at our students who perform exceptionally well, and apply those learnings to future cohorts.

The Premed Catalyst Way

Stop Overthinking. Start Outperforming.

The Challenge

Most premeds don’t fail from lack of effort. They fail from a lack of alignment. A strong application must be cohesive and positioned. Different schools value different priorities, from research to service to region. Without a strategy, students collect activities that don’t fully support their goals or passions. Our programs and premed coaching ensure every move with your premed mentor builds toward the right schools.

The Process

We start by getting clear on your goals and timeline, then map the exact next steps that matter (and cut the ones that don’t). Whether you’re in our premed Mentorship Program or Application Cycle Advising, you get a plan plus high-touch premed coaching to shape a cohesive narrative across activities, writing, and interviews, with accountability so you keep executing instead of scrambling.

The Results

Our students average 7.3 interviews, 100% of on-time applicants earn at least one acceptance, and 90% get into a top ten goal school. You finish with a roadmap you trust, writing that’s sharp and specific, and interviews that feel easier because your story is already built. Most importantly, you gain real confidence and real options, supported by a team that helps you execute the right moves in the right order.

"Interviewers were commenting on my personal statement. I remember in one interview I had...I was talking about it and I was literally just saying what I had written in my personal statement and the interviewer started tearing up. And so for me, I knew I wrote a very solid statement, so it was worth the investment for sure."

"Everybody was reaching out like all my friends and family. They honestly didn't know what the hell they were talking about and they couldn't wait to review my essays. I got like all over the place. And my parents obviously didn't know anything and they were just being really annoying, so I was like, all right, let's get the expert."

"I was able to write about my extracurriculars in a very cohesive way. Another reason I reached out for consulting services in the first place was I looked at my activities and I was like, none of these go together, and half of these have nothing to do with medicine."

"Writing has always been a different ball game for me. It's not been my strongest suit. And so that was my biggest fear. But [the Premed Catalyst team] was there with me for all these secondaries and [they] helped a lot. I think what really helped is seeing how [the Premed Catalyst team] were editing. The first two to three essays I figured out how to adapt to that model."

"I remember going through seven or eight drafts (of my personal statement). And every single time I'd bring it back to [the Premed Catalyst team], it'd be like, oh, this is good, but I don't think this is the right story...But I think the final draft I ended up with was perfect for what I needed. I'm happy that [the Premed Catalyst team] kept on pushing me."

"I think that [the Premed Catalyst team] was really great. [They] knew what [they] were talking about. Anytime [they] responded to something, [they] were very thorough. Clearly it was good advice. And when [they] gave comments on things, it was really big picture things that really helped me."
