William was a great resource to have as I prepared for residency interview season. He went above and beyond to support me, give me advice, and answer all my questions. It was a pleasure working with him and I appreciate all the time he spent helping me.

College Interview Prep

Dr. Fisher helped me prepare for my college interview, and it was an amazing experience. His advice was clear, simple, and very practical. He made me feel more confident and ready.

His counseling was very helpful and honest. He knew exactly what to focus on and how to improve my answers. Because of his support, I was able to do well and secure my spot at my number one choice medical school.

I truly recommend Dr. Fisher to anyone preparing for interviews.

Great interview prep and advice

I had the opportunity to work with Dr. Fisher and Dr. Shen during my interview preparation, and it was a wonderful experience. Although I did not match at my top program, their guidance truly strengthened my performance throughout the interview season. I’m very happy to share that I matched into an excellent preliminary surgery program!

With TheMatchGuy you're going into the MATCH with the best brains in your corner!

I used The Match Guy’s Match Advising package this cycle, and honestly, it made a huge difference in my journey.

With The Match Guy, it truly feels like you’re going into the MATCH with some of the best minds in your corner. That kind of support gives you a lot of confidence and clarity throughout the process.

They helped me through everything—from initial brainstorming and optimizing my profile for applications, to building a smart program list based on my stats and signals, to CV and personal statement editing, Interview prep and finally Rank Order List advising. It really felt like having a full team guiding me at every step.
Every advisor I worked with was extremely skilled, genuinely invested in my success, and great to learn from. I ended up receiving 17 interview invites and matched at my #1 choice, which still feels unreal.
I did have a few red flags, including a YOG of 3 years, and they helped me address those very effectively in my application and interviews.
A special shoutout to:
Dr. Fisher for helping refine my PS and CV
Dr. Yazaan Abboud, Dr. MO Tabary, and Dr. Besher Shami for interview prep
And Dr. Malke Asad, who was always involved behind the scenes, reviewing things and stepping in whenever something could be improved

I genuinely can’t recommend them enough.

Currently enrolled in the 7 day step 2 course and it's fantastic. The tutors are all so knowledgable; they connect concepts in ways I hadn't considered, giving me a much better grasp of concepts I previously found confusing. I also really like the PDFs that accompany the lecture slides, as well as the Anki decks they provide. And a major plus is the course's flexibility - unlike some other courses where missing a session means you lose the material, The Match Guy shares the recordings. For those of us on rotations/working, this is definitely so very appreciated. I recommend their boards prep services without reservation, and hope to use them for residency interview prep services and statistics/research services later on. :)

I had a fantastic experience with Dr George Bissada

I had a fantastic experience with Dr. George Bissada interview preparation session. He is very professional, patient and is not judging you and very humble and kind. I would give more than 5 stars if I can. The guidance I received was incredibly valuable, and I truly appreciated the time and effort put into making the session so helpful and structured. The feedback was thoughtful, clear, and directly applicable, which really boosted my confidence and helped me refine my interview skills and I got Matched this year.
What stood out the most was the perspective as a current resident—it added real-world insight that you simply can’t get elsewhere. The mentorship, honesty, and practical tips made a huge difference in my preparation. I also appreciated the additional resources and recommendations, which were very useful and it helped me to get matched.
Overall, an excellent and highly worthwhile experience. I would highly recommend Dr. Bissada to anyone preparing for residency interviews!

I had a very helpful interview

I had a very helpful interview preparation session with Dr Besher Shami. He provided useful guidance on structuring answers and approaching common interview questions, and the practice session helped me feel more prepared.
During my interview, I was asked similar questions to what we covered, which made it easier to organize my responses and stay confident.
I’m happy to share that I successfully matched into the program I interviewed for. I would recommend Besher to others looking for additional interview preparation support.

I wasn’t sure how to approach the interview season and after Billy looked at my application, he helped me gather my thoughts to build an interesting story as an interviewee and I believe this really helped me stand out during the interviews and ultimately what helped me match!!!

Old IMG Matched!

Old IMG Matched!
I received interview preparation help from Dr. Kang Daniel. The experience was extremely valuable. I was able to connect with him quickly despite last minute request. Dr. Kang asked challenging but highly relevant questions tailored to my application. Many of the questions he asked were very similar to those I experienced during my actual residency interviews. His experience clearly shows! He knew what programs are looking for and tailored the interview accordingly.
Had I not practiced those questions beforehand, I likely would have struggled during the real interviews. I am very grateful for his guidance and the overall service of the Match Guy (Bisan coordinated my experience).
I highly recommend!
