What our clients say
If you are a student thinking about getting help preparing for your dental/medical/etc. school interview, do not hesitate to work with Gordon. I received an invitation for an MMI interview with the University of Sydney School of Dental Medicine and I was freaking out. I was super nervous, as my previous dental school interviews had not gone very well. I knew I needed a coach! I heard about Gordon through other students online who were absolutely raving about him. I put my full trust in him from the beginning, and he did not disappoint. He prepared me beyond my expectations and transformed me into the best, most professional version of myself. When it came to my interview day, I felt more confident than ever before. I did extremely well in my interview, and less than a month later, I was offered a place in the D.M.D. program! If it weren’t for Gordon, it is very likely that I would not have gained acceptance into dental school. Because of his help, I am now living my dream! Thank you, Gordon!”
