I had a wonderful one-on-one mentorship session with Dr. Aggarwal. Right from the beginning, he created a relaxed and welcoming environment where I felt completely comfortable expressing myself. We thoroughly reviewed my CV—from honors and awards to work experiences and hobbies—and he offered some of the most insightful advice on how to present my accomplishments in a compelling and effective way.
We also did a focused interview preparation segment, where he taught me how to respond to common residency interview questions in a concise yet memorable manner. His guidance helped me see how small changes in delivery and structure can leave a lasting impression.
I truly found the session valuable and would definitely consider working with him again in the future.
Dr. Aggarwal’s insights on the art of interviewing really elevated my understanding of the process. The benefits of this service are Dr. Aggarwal’s immense experience, and this boosted my confidence. The tips provided during the session changed my outlook on interviewing, and I look forward to applying those skills in my upcoming interviews. I would definitely recommend this service to my friends.
Dr. Aggarwal carefully analyzed my interview responses and provided thoughtful, constructive feedback. His insights helped me better understand the expectations behind commonly asked interview questions, and how to effectively weave my personal experiences into my answers to create a lasting impression.

Dr. Aggarwal made an effort to understand me – not just my application on paper, but the person behind it. He guided me to highlight parts of my story that deserve the spotlight and present them in a way that leaves a lasting impression.
He also offered insight into what program directors value and what doesn’t really matter (even if we think it does!)
Overall, it gave me a much better understanding of how to be my authentic self while highlighting the qualities that programs are really looking for.
I recently had a 1-on-1 session with Dr. Aggarwal, and I genuinely can’t say enough good things about the experience. I was a bit scared because I thought he’d say my goals were too unrealistic with my current profile, but from the moment we started talking, it felt like I was being truly heard. He actually listened to me until I was done.
He gave me honest feedback on my weaknesses, but in a way that felt encouraging rather than defeating. It motivated me to improve instead of making me feel overwhelmed. And having someone who’s been through this, makes it easier. And having an attending work with you definitely makes the journey easier. I highly recommend setting up a session if you’re feeling stuck or unsure about what to do next.

Thanks to his guidance, I will be able to present myself more effectively and navigate the process with greater assurance. I highly recommend Dr. Aggarwal’s guidance to anyone seeking personalized, strategic mentorship in their professional journey.
As someone at the beginning of my match journey, I found Dr. Agarwal’s insights into the tips and tricks of securing the perfect residency match to be incredibly valuable.

The discussion on strengthening CV, drafting a Personal Statement and preparing for Interview were empowering.I would highly recommend this service to anyone serious about achieving their best possible match.
The session was extremely helpful. Dr. Aggarwal guided me on how to effectively rewrite my CV and personal statement, how to present my journey as a compelling narrative rather than a list of bullet points, and how to tailor my personal statement to specific residency programs. He also shared important insights on networking and reaching out to residents and fellows. I truly appreciate his time, guidance, and effort.
I wish these services had been available during the 2025 Match cycle. For the 2026 cycle, I look forward to working together as a team. I’m grateful for his support and would like to continue using these services throughout this process. I sincerely hope to match this cycle.
