Your AMCAS submission feels like an accomplishment - as it should. You've spent months crossing your Ts and dotting your Is.

But here's what no advisor will tell you:
Your primary is just a qualifier - the real application begins in about a month

The Secondary Surge: Where Applications Go to Die
In the next few weeks, you'll discover why most qualified applicants don't get in their first cycle:
  1. The Volume - 70+ essays across 20+ schools (5x increase in work volume from primary app)
  2. The Speed - 7-14 day turnaround expectations (The higher the rank, the faster the expectation)
  3. The Trap - Recycling answers that ADCOMs instantly spot as generic (they know!)
Fact: 100% of our 2025 cycle reapplicant clients trace their first-cycle rejection to poor secondary execution.

Most applicants
take a break between AMCAS and secondaries. They fail to:
  • Review common secondary prompts
  • Map their core themes and contribution potential across schools
  • Set up a writing system that won’t burn them out or make them sound generic to ADCOMs
  • Identify which schools deserve their most intense editing effort

Asclepius Clients vs. Conventional Applicants (2024 Cycle):
  1. 6X more acceptances than DIY applicants (8 acceptances vs ~1.2 national average)
  2. 100% interview rate at target schools
  3. 100% first-time acceptance rate (vs. 41% national average)
I was interviewed at every school we worked on...

I got 8 acceptances from 8 interviews—including UCSF and Vanderbilt—while classmates with higher stats and hours got rejected.

I’m proud to say I was only swamped by ‘yes’ letters.

Emma - Accepted to UCSF, Vanderbilt, and six other schools.

Guarantee: Get at least one interview from your secondaries or your money back.
(Want these results? The system works—but only if you start before secondaries hit.)

Limited Capacity Advisory Openings
Our Secondary Support program includes:
100+ pre-analyzed secondary questions (save 200+hours of writing time)
Elite School Templates (Harvard/Yale/Georgetown ready frameworks)
8-hour Priority Edits

Early Decision Benefit: Lock in your $150 discount + guaranteed spot before enrollment closes and prices increase.

This program isn't for you if:
  • You’re willing to wing it on skimmed mission statements, late-night ChatGPT, and recycled essays.
  • If you're content to gamble with thousands of $$$ and a year of your life
But if you're ready to approach secondaries with the same rigor you've applied so far, then say....

YES, I want my 8 acceptances
