FAQ
Answers before you request a free diagnostic report
What the initial diagnostic includes, what happens after you submit, reviewer context, privacy, ethical boundaries, and next steps.
Free diagnostic
The free diagnostic is a two-page, pattern-level report. It identifies red flags, vague or generic areas, unclear fit, missing context, and the first revision priorities. It is not a complete line edit or paid full document review.
No. There is no payment required to request the free diagnostic report or receive the initial diagnostic.
Follow the current request form's document and file requirements. Remove unnecessary sensitive information before uploading.
We use the application context and draft submitted through the request form to prepare the two-page diagnostic and explain the available next step. You decide whether you want to continue.
Reviewers and authorship
Our review team consists of American and Canadian medical residents. Application-experienced reviewers. Reviewer identities and identifying professional details remain private. No university, hospital, employer, program, application service, or admissions committee endorses Application Review Co.
Every document receives feedback from two reviewers. Reviewer identities and identifying professional details remain private.
No. Application Review Co provides feedback, comments, revision priorities, and guidance. We do not ghostwrite, fabricate experiences, or submit applications. Your final application remains your own work.
Payment and next steps
No document-review service can control an admissions decision. Application Review Co does not guarantee admission, interviews, scholarships, rankings, or match outcomes.
Application needs vary by program type, document type, deadline, and revision goals. The free diagnostic report helps us understand your needs first so a review specialist can recommend appropriate next steps before any paid review begins.
Sharing your deadline helps us understand your request. Before paid work begins, the applicable scope, staffing, timing, limitations, and terms are confirmed.
Yes. Application Review Co can support applicants anywhere in the world who are applying to U.S. or Canadian programs.
Privacy
Applicants may contact support to ask about access, correction, or deletion of request or service information. Some records may need to be retained for service, security, dispute, or legal reasons.
Submit only what you want reviewed. Avoid unnecessary sensitive information such as patient names, government ID numbers, financial account numbers, health records, immigration records, confidential employment details, or private third-party information unless truly necessary to the document.
