Client Testimonials
I was driving and thinking about who else I need to thank for their help. I thought of you and said to myself I need to text or email Vijay tonight. So sorry I didn’t get to you earlier, but the answer is YES! And I have to admit that I give you HUGE credit for my acceptance. You helped me so much with the whole process and I am so incredibly thankful for all of your help. I’ll be starting this coming fall as a medical student at Indiana University School of Medicine!!!
Danny (Medical Student)-Los Angeles, CA
I was just interviewed by LMU and 99% of what he coached me on showed up. Even with random questions they asked, I was confident & prepared enough to answer. Recommending my friends for their graduate school endeavors. Much appreciated.
Christian (Doctor of Physical Therapy) – Los Angeles, CA
I just wanted to update you and let you know that I got accepted to Touro Med!! Thank you so much for all of your help with the interview prep. It definitely made me more confident and I was really able to convey why I believe I would make a great physician in the future based on my accomplishments. This interview in particular was group format so there were five candidates and three interviewers, which was nerve wracking at first. But I became comfortable very quickly and was able to shine with confidence and answer each question concisely. Thank you again so much and I wish you a very happy holiday season!
Best,
Alya (Medical School) – Los Angeles, CA
SOS did an excellent job in preparing me for my medical school interview. I highly recommend them.
Lisa (Medical School) – Los Angeles, CA
I’m a 2nd year graduate student at UCLA who just finished applying to multiple study abroad fellowships such as the Marshall and Rhodes Scholarship. Knowing the interview would be the most important part of the application, I came to Vijay for coaching. And I’m so glad I did!
Vijay not only assisted me formulate strong answers to questions that I could expect, but also prepped me to answer curveball questions using general responses that could be widely applicable. But most importantly, he showed me interviewing methods that would help me convey passion and would leave a lasting impression on the interviewers. Thanks to time preparing with Vijay, I had an exceptional interview experiences, and the skills I learned with Vijay will continue to be invaluable in my future career as I continue on to job and academic interviews.
Highly recommended to all individuals applying to jobs, medical school, or any other position that requires interviews. Vijay is really great at what he does.
Alex (Marshall Scholarship and Rhodes Scholarship Programs) – Los Angeles, CA
I HIGHLY recommend Interview SOS to prep for med school interviews.
I met with Vijay back in Sept 2014 to prepare for some upcoming med school interviews. I had no prior experience interviewing and thought hiring a coach would maximize my chances of getting in. Vijay thoroughly prepared me on how to talk about myself, my resume, answer common questions, handle difficult & uncomfortable questions, and present myself as best as possible.
Of the seven interviews I attended, I was accepted at four schools, wait listed at two schools, and rejected from one. In addition, I received scholarship offers at 3 schools. I believe that my work with Vijay was imperative to my success this application cycle. He is extremely knowledgeable, experienced, patient, and is able to really tailor each answer to the candidate and school. This specialized attention built my confidence and molded me into the “perfect fit??? for each school I applied to.
Thank you!
Anna (Medical School) – Beverly Hills, CA
VJ is great! He really helps a great deal! We went through common questions for interveiw and also discussed a great deal about the possible questions focusing on my experience. VJ helped me with great answers and also the tone when answering the questions. In addition, he made me realize of where to emphasize and how to deal with un-expected questions. He’s really professional with interview training and encouraged me a lot. I feel more confident after this two hour session.
Update: The actual interview went very well. I have got the offer from my dream graduate school program. Thanks, VJ.
Jill (Graduate School) – Los Angeles, CA
If you are applying to med school, VJ will really help you out. He’ll prepare you for the exact questions they will ask, and he will offer great recommendations on how to sell yourself as a viable candidate. Even if the questions in your actual interview aren’t presented in a straightforward way, you will be ready to answer them because VJ’s method of prep involves forming a cohesive vision of who you are and your aspirations and career goals rather than just memorizing answers to common questions. Difficult questions become easier to answer when you have a clearer idea of your own goals and skill-set. I definitely thought it was worth the money & would recommend VJ’s services to anyone applying to med school in a heartbeat.
Update: I was accepted to the medical school of my dreams; and I could not have done it without Vijay. I strongly recommend his services.
Charles (Medical School) – New York, NY
SOS is great!!! I went in about a month ago for interview prep for several of psychology doctorate graduate programs. We worked on great answers for many common questions. Also, Vijay gave great advice about how to display excitement and passion during my interviews. As someone who had never interviewed before, I was very nervous for them, I definitely recommend this services. I got into all of the programs that I interviewed for.
Update: I was accepted to the medical school of my dreams; and I could not have done it without Vijay. I strongly recommend his services.
