Sooo many of you have reached out for med school application support and I found an affordable and helpful resource for you called Paived! I’ve been getting lots of questions about how Paived works, so I partnered up with them to detail everything you need to know below.
What is Paived?
Paived is an online platform to help pre-med students keep track of their application progress, learn how to create a successful medical school application, and seek guidance from current medical students and graduates. THEY BASICALLY SUPPORT YOU WITH EVERYTHING!! Their mentors will help you design and perfect every aspect of your medical school application to maximize your chances of getting into medical school.
So why should you consider a mentor through Paived?
Med school application resources and consulting services can be expensive. I know because I remember putting entire paychecks into funding my med school application. Finding the resources to fund this is hard. That is why this resource is special – it is affordable! I wish this existed when I applied. By connecting pre-med students with current medical students, Paived provides a flexible and affordable way for you to find guidance and support from peers that have walked in their shoes.
What can a mentor on Paived help me with?
Mentors can help you with every step of the application process:
- Creating a strong MCAT strategy and coming up with a study plan.
- Finding and picking extracurricular activities
- Crafting your personal personal statement
- Reviewing your entire primary application before submission (WOW, I would have LOVED this one!!)
- Edit and review your secondary application essays (I get so so many messages about help with this)
- Mock interview preparation
- Edit and review of letters of interest or intent
- Complete application review and support in case you have to re-apply
How much does it cost?
Creating a profile on Paived is completely FREE. I made an account, tried out the site, and it is SO EASY! Sign up here! For the different services, each mentor decides how much to charge – but the price is extremely affordable, and the mentors are willing to make it work for you if you have financial constraints!
I hope you found this helpful. I want to see you all succeed and when I found this affordable resource it brightened my whole week!!! I’m always here to support you, I’ll be cheering for you.
Love,
Claudia
