New Jersey Pre-Med Students Deserve Advising from a Physician
New Jersey sends thousands of students into a highly competitive medical school admission process every year, and a physician advisor gives you a real edge. At MedTrack Mentors, Dr. Mario Tomei, MD, MBA, MHA, CHSE serves as a physician-led pre-health advisor who helps college students plan their path to medical school with personalized strategy, essay feedback, school-list building, MCAT planning, and interview preparation. Whether you are at Rutgers, Princeton, Seton Hall, Rowan, Montclair State, NJIT, TCNJ, Drew, or another NJ institution — or pursuing a post-bacc, career change, reapplicant cycle, or BS/MD program — this is the point to connect early and build a stronger application. Dr. Tomei brings physician-level admissions insight, university teaching experience, and a track record of guiding students across New Jersey through every stage of the process. The same physician-led advising extends to PA school and combined-degree applicants who want dedicated expert input tailored to New Jersey programs and expectations.
