Boston, United States MedSchoolCoach Full time
About the Role

We are looking for highly motivated and talented individuals who have a passion for education and helping students applying to pre-med or BS/MD programs. Working together with a college advisor, the physician advisor, also known as the BS/MD advisor, will support high school students through the college and BS/MD application process, helping the applicant build school lists, draft and complete the "Why Medicine?", brainstorm and edit supplemental essays, and prepare for interviews, among other application tasks. The goal is to help students submit polished applications that align with their school list and action plans. Additionally, it is imperative that our BS/MD advisors are graduates of direct medical programs

Responsibilities

The BS/MD advisor will work with students in several capacities:
  • develop a strong working relationship with the college advisor, acting as a unified team that will support the applicant through the application process
  • evaluate candidacy of high school students looking to apply to BS/MD programs. This includes evaluation of their GPA, SAT/ACT scores, completed courses, extracurricular activities, and experiences
  • edit the applicant's BS/MD personal statement and BS/MD supplemental essay questions
  • collaborate with applicant to create a customized BS/MD school list that aligns with the student's candidacy, goals, and preferences
  • prepare students for admissions interviews
  • advise students throughout the application process, implementing proactive measures like consistent check-ins, thorough editing, and timelines/deadlines
  • manage family expectations and enlist them as part of the larger team supporting the student
  • assist students with developing personal responsibility and managing their work
  • offer your expertise and guidance on key application questions and situations
Students can sign up early enough to create year-round work, however, peak season is typically from late August until mid-January. You will be expected to work with multiple clients at one time and need to commit to working with the client until their package or service is complete, which can take upwards of a year. This is a remote position that requires you to have a reliable connection to the Internet and access to Microsoft Word.

  • experience building a great rapport with families
  • high level of emotional intelligence, especially in working with high school students
  • strong availability to work with at least 10 students in an application cycle

This is a high-touch role. Our clients and fellow advisors value efficient and comprehensive work, which includes a hands-on approach and supporting clients in creating original and compelling application materials. Advisors should be prepared to be flexible and accommodating, when reasonable requests are made. Most importantly, advisors must be sensitive to the emotional needs of the family and student. This is a stressful and busy time for everyone involved, especially the student. It is important that the advisor has the ability to build a trusting and positive relationship with the student and can deliver feedback and guidance in an age-appropriate and constructive manner.
