MD Admissions

November 19, 2025November 19, 2025 ~ drpaulloweadmissionsexpert

High School Juniors: if you are interested in applying to BS/MD programs—it’s time to reevaluate your BS/MD Plans! With such a competitive environment and the immeasurable value and benefits of BS/MD programs, the need for an effective admissions game plan is CRUCIAL.

Many aspects of the BS/MD admissions environment have changed. At BS/MD Admissions Advisors, Dr. Paul Lowe and his team of advisors discover that many students and parents are clueless about what to do, when to do it, where to do it, who to contact, and why. If you are a high school junior or your son or daughter is a high school junior and you are thinking about applying to direct BS/MD programs, it’s time to reassess your plans.

Most students (even with the help of their parents) read books, look at videos or visit college forum-type websites which they believe may provide personalized answers for them.

Many parents who call us (and whose children are performing the above and have the below profile) then believe that their child is a shoo-in for BS/MD programs and just need “some” advice.

Here is the typical BS/MD applicant-student profile of students when parents contact us:

GPA: 4.85 (weighted)
ACT: 35
SAT: 1580
APs: usually 10 -14 classes
Honors/Awards: several
Teacher/Counselor Recommendations: Excellent
Resume: 3-4 pages
Volunteer: Several organizations
Shadowed Doctors: 3-4
Extracurricular Activities: Several
Published a paper: 1-2
Laboratory Research: Participated and/or possibly published

With all of the above you would believe that this student will definitely be accepted – WRONG! This represents the most common and well-known factors for admissions. However, there are many more things to consider.

Here’s a small list of factors by admissions expert, Dr. Paul Lowe that you should consider if you are a junior seriously thinking about applying to BS/MD programs.

Student CHARACTER – Each institution considers a student’s positive attributes in the light of the goals of the particular institution. BS/MD programs thoroughly evaluate character attributes of a student as a factor for admissions. Among the most important character attributes are honesty, integrity, empathy, curiosity, creativity, teamwork, adaptability, resilience, community, generosity, self-control, adaptability and optimism. Lip-service or just stating that one possesses these attributes will not help.
COLLEGE-SPECIFIC SUPPLEMENTALS – You must complement and synergize your supplementals with your personal statement. All the school-specific essays are important, even the 50 word-count answers! Students have been rejected because of mistakenly using one word or a sentence in 50 word-count essays!
WOW FACTOR – What’s your WOW Factor? How and when can you use it to WOW admissions? You want the admissions committee to say “WOW! We want this applicant on our campus.”
ETIQUETTE –Are you mindful of how you present yourself and how people perceive you? Etiquette matters! We provide personalized etiquette strategies for our clients.
MANNERS – When you say something (or write something) what counts is not what you mean but how you are heard and perceived. Are you mindful of your manners? Manners matter! Do you know when or if you sound rude, pretentious, impolite, disrespectful, unrefined or uncultured?
WHO ARE YOU? – What are your values? What do you stand for? Can you define you? Why are you different?
INTERVIEWS – You may be perfect on paper (grades, SATs recommendations, volunteering to save the world, 1000 hours of shadowing), however, one incorrect word or statement in an interview results in a rejection – That’s right, just one!
The KNOW-HOW. Our proprietary-knowledge, unmatched experience, admissions success and years of close working relationships with admissions professionals ensures that you do it right!

If you know how to plan, develop and implement (1-7) and how they are used in BS/MD admissions – that’s wonderful!!! But if you don’t, there is an increased probability that you (and your child) will make irrevocable mistakes that will cause instant rejections to all schools. Would you want this to happen after your years of planning as a parent and your child’s hard work?

Don’t Wait Until It’s Too Late–Choose the Best Advice for Your BS/MD Admissions Game Plan

October 11, 2025October 11, 2025 ~ drpaulloweadmissionsexpert

With such a competitive environment and the immeasurable value and benefits of BS/MD programs, the need for an admissions game plan is ESSENTIAL.

At BS/MD Admissions, we discern that many students and parents are clueless about what to do, when to do it, where to do it, who to contact, and why. They fail to discover what they are doing that’s wrong, or they discover what they’ve been doing is wrong when it’s too late!
When considering a BS/MD program, we advise our clients to plan, plan, plan, and then re-plan. Early planning and goal-setting are important in the long run for admissions success!

If you’re parent of a high school student looking for BS/MD admissions guidance, you’re probably overwhelmed in finding the best and meaningful advice that increases their chances of acceptance into a BS/MD program. You can complement their years of hard work by seeking the correct advice that gets them noticed by admissions officers.

While high school counselors provide college counseling, based on our interaction with our clients, high school counselors do not specialize in BS/MD admissions advising nor have the school-specific knowledge of BS/MD programs.

Many independent educational consultants are experts in college admissions counseling, but DO NOT have our unparalleled knowledge of BS/MD programs and knowledge of BS/MD programs as it relates to international students and H4 students. Additionally, as experienced BS/MD Admissions Advisors, we know and understand what it takes to be a successful BS/MD applicant.

It is best to seek a BS/MD Admissions Advisor who has experience and expertise in admissions strategies to BS/MD programs for U.S. as well as international students. Choose an admissions advisor, who specializes in BS/MD admissions, who is not doing it part-time, who understands the medical school journey and or is a BS/MD graduate and who has admissions success.

Dr. Lowe and his team’s dedicated medical-school-specific knowledge and expertise WORKS! With a lot at stake, in a short period of time, in such a competitive environment, BS/MD applicants need a winning BS/MD Admissions Game Plan that works.

By having Admissions Strategy Zoom sessions directly with Dr. Paul Lowe, brainstorming ideas, developing admissions strategies, essay review, and mock interview sessions to develop amazing student profiles, our clients stand out and are accepted into Ivy League and highly selective colleges/universities and BS/MD programs.

Congratulations To Our Clients Who Attend Katy Independent School District High Schools – Texas

April 7, 2025April 10, 2025 ~ drpaulloweadmissionsexpert

The opening of our affiliate offices in Dallas and Houston, Texas has allowed my team and me to help high school students achieve their Ivy League college and BS/MD admissions goals! Wow! And I am happy about that!

Katy Independent School District High Schools Dr Lowe

Over the past 5 years, MANY parents of students who attend Katy ISD high schools have contacted us regarding our college and BS/MD admissions advisory services. Dr. Paul Lowe and his team have worked (and continue to work) with students from several Katy ISD high schools including:

Seven Lakes High School
Tompkins High School
Cinco Ranch High School
Taylor High School
Katy High School

Despite the fact that these are all excellent high schools, MANY parents contact Dr. Lowe because they realize that due to the size of the schools, school counselors are unable to provide continuous weekly or biweekly individualized college and/or BS/MD admissions services to their children.

We are happy to report that parents of Katy ISD high school students decided to hire us so that their children are accepted to their first-choice schools – Ivy League schools and BS/MD programs!
