Episode 136: Mastering Time Management in Application Season
Application season isn’t just about deadlines; it’s about strategy, clarity, and knowing how to use your time wisely. In this episode, Dr. Adrienne Shnier pulls back the curtain on what really matters when you’re applying to law school, medical school, graduate programs, and beyond.
From figuring out your “why” to mapping out your experiences, Adrienne explains why written materials are just as critical as test scores, and how most applicants underestimate the time it takes to craft them. She shares personal stories from her own application journey (including why she recycled unopened med school letters!) and warns against falling for cookie-cutter consulting services that don’t deliver real strategy.
You’ll learn how to:
- Build a timeline that actually works for you (not Google, not TikTok, not AI)
- Highlight experiences, even those from before high school, in a way that resonates
- Avoid burnout while balancing school, work, and life
- Spot the red flags of ineffective coaching and empty promises
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by applications or unsure how to juggle it all, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence to move forward with a plan tailored to you.
