More about Dr. Rachel Rizal:

Dr. Rachel Rizal co-founded Cracking Med School Admissions in 2012. Rachel grew up in a community of entrepreneurs in Los Angeles. She has always had a strong passion in healthcare and education, founding several organizations that increase access to healthcare and educational opportunities. As a medical school student at Stanford, Rachel recognized that premeds at several universities did not have strong premed advising. Catching the entrepreneurial bug, Rachel decided to write a book, Cracking Med School Admissions: Trusted Advice from Students Who’ve Been There. The book’s publication led to book talks and workshops across the United States, which led Rachel and her co-authors to create a business that provides personalized career advice and essay editing, Cracking Med School Admissions. Each year, Rachel’s mentees get accepted to top medical schools like Stanford and Harvard. Rachel expanded the business by creating a new website, BSMDAdmit.com, which targets high school students interested in pursuing medicine. She also created the first Multiple Mini Interview online course, Mastering the Multiple Mini Interview, in the United States
