TL;DR - I am 100% confident that Victoria is one of the best coaches on Leland to help you get into your dream school. That being said, if you'd like to hear more about what makes her so special as a coach, I'd be honored for you to read my review on my experience working with her for over 8 months on R1 apps. I am so grateful to have found Victoria, who helped me tremendously with my R1 applications for Wharton, HBS, GSB, and Kellogg. The most important thing I would like to highlight throughout my time with her is that she is extremely skilled at being able to help you hone in on your life passions, experience, and education to craft a beautiful story that reflects the absolute best version of yourself. Not only does she have extensive experience in getting her clients into all of the top schools, but another thing that stood out was her ability in helping me better understand different professional routes that would allow me to combine my passions with my career. In addition to the MBA admissions process, she has also helped me on a deeper level, aiding me in being able to better articulate my life's purpose. I personally found that out of all the coaches I had introductory calls with on Leland, Victoria was the most passionate and mission-driven, which if you weren't already able to gather from her bio you will within 5 minutes of speaking with her. After working with her for a few months, I actually loved her so much that I recommended her to one of my closest friends also going through the application process (for R1 and R2), who also greatly benefitted from Victoria's coaching. Lastly, as a personal anecdote that demonstrates the strength of Victoria's coaching ability, I shared my essays with a few of my best friends, LOR partner recommenders, professional mentors, and parents, and every single person wrote back to me telling me that the essays made them cry (in a good way!) From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much Victoria for helping me uncover my life's purpose (and ways to actually work on it professionally and realistically!) I can't wait to keep you posted on everything. (Everyone, take a look through all the reviews and you will see the genuineness in all of our reviews; we are serious about our recommendations!)

Shruti is an incredible career coach! As an international student preparing for a biotech company interview, I truly appreciated her comprehensive guidance. She provided everything I needed—from structuring my opening to crafting strong responses to potential questions and navigating the closing Q&A. She understood my concerns and offered invaluable support throughout the process. I highly recommend her!

I booked a session with Steve at the last minute, Steve helped me prep my 1-min pitch and the 1-1 reflection. The 1-1 prep was super helpful as I explore what I did well and what was not doing well. Steve is a very structured and thoughtful mentor, and he is also very kind. I highly recommend Steve for the MBA coaching.

Steve is really authetic and objective in guiding any confusion. He has no ego whatsoever and helps like a friend. He hails from such a rich background yet he is so grounded and reflects celebrity energy wherein he empowers the other person, always. Thanks Steve for everything.

Working with Chichi has been incredible. She's been so patient with me through every draft and revision. What I appreciate most is how supportive she's been - she really believed in my story when I wasn't sure how to tell it myself. I honestly don't think I could have gotten through this MBA application process without her guidance. She made what felt impossible feel manageable.

Karla was truly a next-level coach. Throughout my process of applying for an MPP, she was flexible on time and absolutely exceeded expectations. One of her strongest qualities is helping craft, develop, then tell a story. Whether for MBA, MPP, IB, or consulting, I would recommend her to anyone looking to produce the most robust application possible. She is organized, efficient, and personable. Karla is 10/10!

Kerry was by far the best admissions consultant I worked with (and I spoke to many). She is patient, delivers clear feedback, and continues to push you to make your application components better. I would work with her 10/10 times again.

Arielle led a great mock - she gave a lot of feedback along the way. Having gone through the process herself, she was able to share candid advice that I had not yet heard / read in other places. Would recommend
