Questions people actually ask.

No. MedPath is an independent planning tool. We help you manage your applications; we’re not part of any admissions system or committee.

A spreadsheet tells you a date. MedPath tells you what to do about it today, and why, ranked against everything else on your plate rather than just sorted by due date. The Compare page sets it against a spreadsheet, MSAR, Choose DO Explorer, the forums and paid consultants, including where each of those beats us.

Yes. Add schools from both AMCAS and AACOMAS to one list and MedPath prioritizes across all of them together, rather than leaving you to reconcile two trackers.

No, and it never will. Nobody can, and a number pretending otherwise would just be another thing to refresh at midnight. MedPath organizes and coaches; it makes no claim about outcomes.

MedPath is a responsive web app today, so it works well on your phone’s browser. A native app isn’t ruled out, but the web experience is fully supported now.

All modern browsers on desktop and mobile, including recent Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge.

No, and that is on purpose. The AI advisor asks questions, flags unclear or unsupported sections, and helps you revise, but it never generates essay content for you. You keep control of your writing and decide which feedback to use.

The coach is designed to ask questions about your writing, not produce your essay. Follow each school’s policy on AI tools; MedPath cannot guarantee how a school will assess their use. What it gives you back is questions about your own draft: the reflection that’s missing, the claim you didn’t support, the paragraph that doesn’t answer the prompt.

No. Your application data and essays are never used to train outside models. They exist to serve your account and nothing else.

Yes. Invite them with access to selected sections to read and comment on specific essays or your overall plan. There are separate sharing controls, most switched off by default, and they see only what you turn on.

Only the sections you choose to share. Reviewers can read and comment, but cannot edit or submit your work. They may download reports; ending access cannot recall downloaded copies. Access has an end date and you can revoke it.

No. MedPath will not grade a student. An advisor sees countable facts from your own account: how many tasks are past their date, how many of their comments are still unresolved. Never a judgement about you.

No. An office can invite you, but nothing is visible to them until you accept and choose what to share, and you can decline. The account is yours, not the institution’s.

Your account is private by default, protected by access controls enforced at the database on every piece of data you enter, not by a filter in application code. We do not sell your information. Service providers process data to run MedPath, and advisors see what you choose to share. See Privacy for the details.

It’s still yours. Nothing is deleted unless you delete it, and if you reapply, your Story Bank, letter history, and past drafts carry forward into the new cycle.

Yes, anytime, in full: schools, drafts, stories, letters, costs and outcomes. No support ticket required.

Self-serve from your account settings. No ticket, no retention call, no dark pattern between you and the button.
