Victoria was extremely responsive and helpful in managing the whole application process. Can’t recommend her enough!

Machmud’s insight and feedback was incredibly helpful during my law school admissions process. His thoughtful questions helped me identify the unique traits I could highlight in my application materials and his encouraging but realistic approach to my school list resulted in acceptances across my reach, match, and safety schools. Machmud was always responsive and provided feedback in a timely manner. I would strongly recommend him to anyone applying to law school and beyond!

I'm so grateful to have found Jeremy through Leland. From helping me craft my resume and cover letter to preparing for case interviews, he was there every step of my journey from knowing almost nothing about consulting to receiving an offer from McKinsey. He was always sensitive to my needs at each stage of the process, making sure I was pushing myself to grow while avoiding burnout. Jeremy really went above and beyond to make sure I was supported through the highs and lows. I can't say enough positive things--don't hesitate!

Greg was a genuine thought partner throughout the my MBA admissions process. I applied while working abroad, and he adapted without missing a beat — time zones, limited flexibility, asynchronous collaboration, etc. He was consistently thoughtful, responsive, strategic, and honest. What most stands out is Greg's integrity. He is not running a playbook for several clients at a time. He'll push back where it matters and clarify your purpose. Strongly recommend to anyone, but especially if you're working in climate or international development.

As someone who has worked with 10+ coaches in my career, I can confidently say Kate is on the top of the list when it comes to interview coaching. Her advice is direct and immediately applicable, and her experience and wealth of knowledge is unparalleled. I would not hesitate for even a second to recommend Kate to anyone.

Geri reviewed my essays for six schools. Throughout the process, I was consistently impressed by her ability to cut to the heart of what I was trying to say. Her eye for structure is unparalleled — she has a true gift for arranging content in ways that are both clear and compelling. What I appreciated most working with Geri was her honesty. We met regularly to discuss broad strokes of the essay process, and there were instances when she would tell me plainly that a draft or topic wasn't working. I appreciated these conversations and that she wasn’t just telling me what she thought I wanted to hear or taking the path of least resistance. Working with Geri, I felt like I had someone genuinely in my corner. Of the six programs I applied to, I was admitted to four. I owe that in no small part to Geri’s wisdom. I was privileged to draw on her experience and insight, and I'd recommend her without hesitation.

I worked with Julia to perfect my PEI stories and cases, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Julia is a fantastic coach who brings sharp insights into what top-tier firms are looking for. What I appreciated most was her level of honesty. She provides clear, candid feedback that is always in your best interest; she won't sugarcoat where you need to improve. Beyond the technicalities, she truly cheers you on like a friend. That combination of professional rigor and genuine motivation made the entire process so much more manageable.

Working with Sophie was an invaluable part of my consulting interview preparation. From the very first session, she was incredibly supportive, starting with my specific goals and tailoring every meeting to meet them. Sophie’s approach to behavioral interviews is a game-changer. She taught me how to approach questions with a clear structure, both overall and within each step of the STAR method. This made my stories much easier for interviewers to follow. For case prep, she was equally attentive. When I received feedback from interviews to make my frameworks "deeper," Sophie helped me brainstorm real-life events to synthesize into my practice, which added a level of sophistication I wouldn't have reached on my own. Beyond the content, Sophie is extremely professional. She always checks in before sessions to confirm the lesson plan and follows up with detailed summaries of what I did well and where I could improve. I saw clear progress every week, and her genuine support kept me motivated. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Tim guided me through the MBA process and was critical to my admissions success! He is very knowledgeable about the application cycle and the various programs, and knows exactly how to build and distill a narrative. He was super helpful when it came to refining my profile and was a tremendous supporter. I recommend him highly!!

Yoshana helped me tremendously in navigating the application cycle as a semi–non-traditional, first-generation law applicant. The knowledge and insight she provided at every step of the process (personal statements, letters of recommendation, LSAT strategy, and more) were invaluable. Beyond that, she genuinely cared about my success throughout the entire journey. With her help, I was ultimately accepted to my top-choice law school. I can’t recommend Yoshana and her coaching highly enough.
