I am going to apply to medical school this cycle. My gpa is 3.92 and going to take MCAT in April 5. I have good clinical hours and good research with publications.
The problem is mainly my writing. I am a bilingual immigrant (US citizen now) and came to US 6 years ago with almost no English. Therefore, I do not expect myself to be a very good writer. That’s why I am mainly looking for professional advice for the writings for the application cycle. I do not know anyone who can help other than paid advice. I have saved up some money for that.
I would like to know what are the good consulting options. I found MotivateMD, Medschoolcoach (very expensive). Is there anything else you recommend? I am a first generation without anyone in this country, so my only source of advice is reddit or here.
Please suggest. Thank you!

I cannot because of my position with SDN, but you can ask others. I just ask you to support organizations that support this community.

If I were in your shoes, I would delay the MCAT and find an English tutor.



English is a miserable language to learn as an adult. It is terribly irregular because it draws from lots of other languages. You need to start with the basics like the eight parts of speech, all of the screwy verbs and diagramming sentences. You will be writing notes and letters throughout your career.
 
You seem to express yourself well enough in writing in your post. I would start with the list of volunteers who review personal statements (for free) and also the premed advising team at your university. Most universities also have free writing support and tutoring, because MANY students have difficulty with writing.
