Emily is super helpful! I worked with her on PEI and finished feeling super prepared for my interviews. Super organized and a great person to work with. Highly recommend!

Alexander helped me out with my statement of purpose for my master's application. He was extremely helpful, answering my questions and giving meaningful feedbacks. I highly recommend him!

Timothy is everything I was looking for in a coach and more - knowledgeable, personable, available, a straight-shooter. What sets him apart is his genuine enthusiasm for my success and his unwavering belief in my potential, which made every session both productive and motivating. On multiple occasions I faced some self-doubt, and Timothy was always there to hop on a last-minute phone call to talk things through. His deep understanding of the nuances that differentiate top programs and his ability to guide you in crafting compelling narratives tailored to each specific school is second to none. He's incredibly thorough when reviewing any essay or application portal entry, and I appreciate how his feedback is always specific and action-oriented. When I struggled articulating my career goals, Timothy’s thoughtful questions helped me clarify my vision and align it with each program's unique offerings. Timothy wasn't satisfied with me just gaining acceptances to my top 2 target schools in R1, instead proactively asking for feedback on what he could do to better partner and support me with my reach schools in R2. We added weekly check-ins which kept me accountable and on track, ensuring I maintained a steady pace and avoided last-minute cramming. Partnering with Timothy has empowered me with a level of confidence in my applications I wouldn't have had otherwise. If you're looking for a coach who will not only guide you through the process but also challenge and inspire you to reach your highest potential, Timothy is the one!

Is he the best coach on the market? I don't know because I haven't worked with others. His explanation of technical concepts and advice on crafting my stories were spot-on, but any decent IB banker should be able to do that. What differentiates him is his genuine interests in you - he goes more than the scheduled time to actually know you and to give good advice; follows up with you to keep you motivated; and schedules a last-minute midnight session for your confidence. I'm very satisfied with the result and the process as well.

Naomi provided excellent feedback and editing on my Tuck essays, even going above and beyond on other essays and taking time to understand my unique background

Tim is an exceptional MBA admissions coach. His help was instrumental honing my ‘Why MBA’ statement, he provided thought-provoking M7 school insights, and he shared lightening quick and meaningful essay feedback to fill content gaps, tighten syntax, and allow my story to come through. All of this was done with care and an unassuming attitude, allowing me to confidently be my authentic self during drafting/strategy, which this process asks of the applicant. I’m very pleased I chose to partner with Tim for this process to build an application I’m proud of and recommend his support to any applicant without hesitation!

Kathryn was incredibly knowledgeable and instrumental in my growth equity interview prep. Her insights into the industry and tailored guidance (especially for a student with limited tech background and experience) were extremely helpful in interview prep, and she also proactively reached out to various professionals in her network to find out more about my upcoming interview formats and opportunities on the market I wasn't even aware of yet. She was always available at short notice and went above and beyond to ensure I felt prepared. Highly recommend Kathryn to anyone looking to excel in their interviews.

Josh went above and beyond in helping me prepare for the GMAT, not just on the technical side but also with the mental strategies needed to succeed. His 1:1 sessions kept me accountable and focused, while his ability to break down complex concepts made everything feel manageable. What truly stood out was how invested he was in my success—our mock analysis sessions were game-changers, as Josh taught me how to think like the test-maker and approach each question strategically. Thanks to his guidance, I saw a significant increase in my score. I couldn’t have done it without him!

Michael gave invaluable feedback on my Kellogg essays on a serious time crunch and on overall app strategy/resume, even down to highlighting specific Kellogg resources based on what makes the most sense for my focus and background. I got an interview as a result!

Timothy went out of his way to help me with Booth essays on a time crunch. One of my essays was entirely missing the mark and it became clear I needed a full rehaul. He took time to understand my background and provided efficient and great feedback. I really appreciate this given the tight timeline. I wish I had worked with him earlier.
