Editing Essentials is built for the applicant who has a handle on their overall strategy but knows their written materials need to be sharper. You’ve started your draft and need an expert set of eyes that knows exactly what programs in your specialty are looking for.
You’ll work directly with a MatchPal resident physician in your target specialty — someone who sat navigated this process themselves and has since been on the other side of the table reading and editing hundreds of statements since.
What’s included:
- Up to 4 rounds of line-by-line editing, anchored on your personal statement. Use them to take your PS from draft to final polish (most students use 2-3 rounds here), plus revision of a second document — your ERAS experiences section, specialty-specific secondary essays, MSPE, or your CV.
- A 30-minute kickoff strategy session with your advisor to align on your story and angle before the first pass – because the best edits start with the right direction, not just cleaner sentences.
- A specialty-matched resident physician editor – guaranteed.
- 3–5 business day turnaround on every round of edits, so you’re never waiting on us as deadlines close in.
Every round is comprehensive, written, line-by-line feedback — not a quick proofread. We’re not fixing your commas. We’re making sure your essays earns the interview.
Who it’s for:
Applicants who feel solid on their program list, Sub-I prep, and interviews, but want their personal statement and application materials revised to be genuinely competitive for their specialty. If your written materials are the thing standing between you and your strongest possible application, this is built for you.
