Testimonials

  • I worked with Katie throughout the application process - from my editing my personal statement to INterview Prep. With Katies help I landed interview invites to multiple reach schools and I ultimately attended my dream school. My cycle would not have been as successful without her help!

    Editing Client

  • I began meeting with Will after having plateaued on MCAT practice tests and saw a large score increase with his help. His deep knowledge of the MCAT helped me immensely with test taking strategies, knowing how they could ask questions on all topics, and knowing what content was high yield. If you have limited time he help you maximize it.

    Tutoring Client

  • From MCAT Prep to mock interviews, coatbound was there for me through every step of the application process. Will and Katie are both amazing at what they do. They truly made the medical school application process an enjoyable experience. I could not be happier with the acceptances I have, in no small part because of their guidance.
