Regan is one of the best coaches on this platform -- I had a great time working with her. Though we only worked together for the interview portion of my application, Regan's thoughtfulness really made me feel so supported; I truly felt that she knew and understood my application thoroughly. She helped me prep for interview questions and really understand the mindset of the adcom and why they ask certain questions. Lastly, she is just an amazing thought partner to bounce ideas off of for interview answers. Can't recommend enough!

Kerry was instrumental in my HBS interview success. We conducted two mock interview sessions, and I was incredibly impressed by how closely they mirrored the actual interview experience. Her insights allowed me to walk into the real interview feeling fully prepared and confident. Beyond the admission itself, working with Kerry was a rewarding experience in its own right. I honestly believe I wouldn't have reached this milestone without her guidance. I highly recommend her to anyone aiming for a top-tier MBA.

Elijah was instrumental from start to finish. What stood out immediately was how intentional he was about understanding me. We spent time early on identifying the core throughline of my application, which made every subsequent step—school list, personal statement, secondaries—feel focused and strategic rather than scattered. His feedback is direct, specific, and high-level. He doesn’t just edit for grammar or flow—he pushes you to think more clearly and write with purpose. I came away from every session with concrete improvements and a much better understanding of how admissions committees actually read applications. Where his support made the biggest difference was interview prep. He has an exceptional sense for what different schools are looking for and how to position your story accordingly. Our mock interviews were rigorous but incredibly helpful, and I felt far more confident going into the real thing. Overall, working with Elijah elevated every part of my application. The results exceeded what I thought was possible, and I would recommend him without hesitation. I would not have gotten the offers or scholarships I have without him!!!!

I was accepted into Cornell, and I’m so grateful to Allie for making time to meet with me on such short notice. Just a few hours before my interview she walked me through mock interview questions and helped me strengthen my responses with thoughtful feedback, especially on areas where I could expand and add more depth. Her advice was incredibly helpful and gave me much more confidence going into the interview. Thank you, Allie, I definitely recommend working with her. You won’t regret it!

Steven is one of the best writers that I have ever met and is exceptionally detail-oriented. Working with Steven has been an absolute pleasure and I have secured multiple acceptances from Top 15 business schools with scholarships due to Steven's advice and guidance on content ideation and execution. Steven is extremely surgical and constructive with advice and I felt that he genuinely understood the contours of my profile and positioned my applications in the best way to highlight my strengths. If I could give six stars, I would.

I have been working with Rifat throughout the Round 2 application process and he has provided me with unparalleled guidance and support throughout the process. I sincerely appreciated his flexibility and investment into every part of my application journey, from essay ideation all the way to interview prep. Rifat is extremely detail oriented and understands the key aspects that each school is looking for, which ultimately helped me craft great applications to each school I applied to. I wholeheartedly recommend working with Rifat for MBA admissions.

She’s very nice and knowledgeable - she helped me a lot with getting accepted to MIT

I was admitted to all the graduate programs I applied to, including Columbia, Brown, Cornell, and Dartmouth, and I truly credit a significant part of that to working with Felipe. From selecting programs and shaping my personal statements to refining essays and preparing for interviews, Felipe guided me through every stage of the process. Given my tight timeline, what initially felt overwhelming quickly became very manageable under his guidance. He was extremely knowledgeable, highly responsive, and consistently generous with his time, always willing to meet and provide thoughtful feedback. Even while I was traveling and working asynchronously, Felipe remained very communicative and turned around feedback quickly, which made the entire process feel easy. His interview prep support also really helped me feel prepared and confident. I’m genuinely grateful for his guidance and would highly recommend working with him. I still can’t believe I went from not knowing where to apply to now deciding between offers thanks to Felipe!

With acceptance to Tuck, Georgetown, and Emory Goizueta, I saw the transformation of my package through Faisal's guidance. Before we started our counseling sessions, my vision for MBA was not clear. His questions digging layers deeper made me think years in advance of my goals. The biggest guidance was for crafting my story. Faisal helped connect my past, present, and future goals. I knew the direction and the path post-MBA through Faisal's recommendations. In addition, his prompt and clear guidance on essays really made the difference. I had lower GPAs and GRE scores compared to my peers, and yet I really believe the essays played a vital part. With my non-traditional background, Faisal translated my experiences to be understandable to the admissions committee. Finally, the additional documentations (i.e. resume, recommendation letters, additional information) really bolstered my package. He provided advice on ways to improve my scores like MBA Math and HBS Core, as well as provide justifications for my undergraduate classes. These small details really made the difference. I am so glad I received guidance from Faisal and he is definitely the right counselor for any MBA package. I am truly grateful for Faisal's support in this journey throughout the application process.

I worked with Tim on my overall application strategy, essays, and resume for three Round 2 MBA applications. Going in, I was pretty concerned about my candidacy (particularly my low GRE score), but Tim helped me craft a narrative that felt both compelling and authentic. He also guided me on how to address my GRE and other potential gaps in a thoughtful, strategic way. We spent a lot of time early on refining my story, and he was an incredible sounding board throughout the process. He consistently provided constructive, honest, and actionable feedback, which made a huge difference. He’s also extremely knowledgeable about the admissions process and was always quick to answer any questions that came up. I’m thrilled with my results, and I’m confident that I wouldn’t have had the same level of success without Tim’s support. I would recommend him to anyone - he’s truly the best and you will not regret working with him!!
