Sometimes you need a coach to drill you or explain frameworks, and sometimes you need a trusted mentor to help you believe in yourself. Ian wears both hats, and performs both duties extremely well. I came to Ian lacking both case interview skills and a belief in myself that I could succeed. Ian recognized that and and helped me build both fronts, ultimately resulting in landing my dream offer I can confidently say that I would not be here without Ian's help. I strongly recommend him to anyone seeking success in the consulting application process

Deena helped me crack the GRE and improve my score significantly!! I can’t decide whether the most helpful aspect of her coaching was the clarity of her explanations, or the targeted way in which she helped me diagnose my weakness and buttress them with learning strategies. Recommend Deena highly to fellow test takers- ultimately your learning journey is in your hand- but make sure you have a coach who can equip you with the best tools to get the job done!

I had only one month to prep for MBB interviews, so I booked several sessions with Ian. He was excellent as a "lever" to help me use my time in the most efficient way. For example, I struggled the most with structuring, so instead of always doing a case every session, Ian molded our sessions to practice structuring only. I would suggest a case session with Ian if you have cased and are not sure how to continue improving. I ended up with an MBB SF offer thanks to Ian!

I had a great experience working with Madeline. My graduate applications and resume wouldn’t be the same without her advice and are both are better because of her suggestions! Because of her experience and knowledge, she is able to suggest, articulate, and actively listen to your needs in order to help tell a story while still remaining clear and articulate. Overall, great experience and great mentor. 10/10 recommend working with her :)

Ian's coaching was a transformative experience in my journey from a beginner to successfully landing a job offer. His unique approach to case interview preparation really set him apart. Ian had a knack for using non-business prompts in our sessions, which fundamentally changed how I approach problems. This creative method not only enhanced my analytical skills but also ensured I was well-prepared for any unusual cases I might encounter. What impressed me most about Ian's coaching was his collection of unique and thought-provoking case studies. They were filled with unusual learnings and insights that I wouldn't have gained elsewhere. This depth and variety in his cases significantly broadened my understanding and prepared me for a wide range of scenarios. Moreover, Ian was incredibly supportive throughout the preparation process. He was always available to answer any questions I had, no matter how complex or diverse. His willingness to engage in deep discussions and consider different perspectives was very empowering. I particularly appreciated how Ian encouraged me to challenge his views and discuss the best approach to different problems. This collaborative approach not only refined my analytical skills but also boosted my confidence immensely. In summary, Ian is more than just a coach; he's a mentor who brings out the best in his students. His innovative teaching style, combined with his supportive nature, makes him an excellent choice for anyone starting their case interview journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Ian to anyone looking to make significant strides in their interview preparation.

Greg was one of the best instructors from my college experience. He explained complex ideas a in way that allowed me to learn concepts rather than memorize them. His knowledge of strategy and frameworks had a large influence on my interest in consulting.

I strongly recommend Ian as an outstanding advisor for the case preparation and the recruiting process: 1. Ian provide a unique map of frameworks to provide a deep understanding to solve the cases. He carefully went through this map with me. It was extremely helpful because it linked all the tools to be a toolbox, which helped me to be creative and MECE on the case solving. 2. He helped me greatly on the recruiting process, networking tips, and application review. Many additional values exceeded my expectation. 3. He provided an interesting approach and special materials to dive into different industrial cases. The info was thorough, clear, and organized. 4.

Bruce is an awesome teacher - he breaks complex concepts down, develops proven frameworks to solve problems quickly and methodically, and makes each lesson engaging and very intentional. The GMAT is super tough mentally so having consistent and easy to remember methods is key. I started working with Bruce after a previous tutor experience and two GMAT attempts and he has been extremely helpful at cutting through the noise and focusing my study plan on what's important.

Deena is one of the smartest and most considerate people I know, and she has been a fantastic colleague to work with. I know I can always come to her with any problem I might be facing, and she will sit down and patiently help me work it out until we find the best solution. If she can teach me, she can teach anyone! :)
