With Inspira's help, I was able to get into the PA school on top of my list. They also helped me in applying for the right scholarships on time. 10/10!
I had great one-on-one PA school consulting sessions with Nidhi. Her critical review of my essays was super helpful. She always replied swiftly (within 24 hours), which helped with short turnaround times for all the required documents. I could follow the project plan we finalized initially and apply to schools on time.
Inspira helped me with all elements of my CASPA application, including personal statement writing and building a letter of evaluation strategy. Their support helped simplify the PA school application process, and I would recommend them to other aspirants.
Starting my essays and deciding what and what not to include was very difficult for me. I got help from Inspira with this and don't regret the decision at all. Sara helped me pick the right extracurricular activities for each essay and helped me identify my best recommenders. With her help, I was admitted to 2 PA schools.
The PA interview mock sessions were really helpful. I felt that I had done enough preparation initially, but after the constructive feedback from my coach, I was happy I went with Inspira's consulting services.
I loved the mock interview sessions with Sebastian. We practiced with the MMI format as well as traditional interviews. His feedback helped me improve my responses and gain more confidence!
Not only did Nidhi help me with my PA school applications, but she also motivated me. The whole application process is lengthy and tough. She told me her story and many others to inspire me, and I could relate to them. This helped me not only build my application but also on a personal level. I'm grateful for her help!
The essay brainstorming sessions helped me improve a lot. Sebastian helped make my writing more personalized and brought creative ideas to the table. He was well-prepared for all our sessions and gave high-level feedback. I am happy to have him as my PA school application coach!
I was nervous at the start of the application session, but Nidhi explained everything in detail and helped formulate an application strategy. Based on this plan, we worked and finished everything in time to apply to my top PA schools. I'm glad I chose Inspira.
