Description

This package is for applicants who want a clear, honest read of your candidacy before committing to a full MBA application process. The purpose is not to give you generic encouragement. The purpose is to help you understand what is actually strong in your profile, what may raise questions, where you are under-positioning yourself, and what changes would most improve your odds. In this session, we will take 60 minutes to walk through your background to date, why you're looking to enroll in an MBA program, how you're thinking about the major elements of your application and look through any existing materials you may have already. We will evaluate your candidacy the way an admissions strategist would: academics, test score, career progression, leadership, extracurriculars, goals, school fit, differentiators, and risk factors. Based on this, we will then talk through your options for applying, timelines, and recommendations for elevating your application. Please note: Prior to our meeting, please share with me your resume, LinkedIn profile, undergraduate GPA, and GMAT/GRE scores (if available).


What you'll get from this package

Understanding into how admissions will evaluate your candidacy as it stands today

Actionable suggestions for improving your application/profile

Profile differentiation ideas based on your background and peer applicant pool

Recommended next steps for application timing, story development, resume, essays, recommenders, and profile building

I’m a Wharton MBA, former Wharton Admissions Fellow, and Founder of The Ivy Journey (theivyjourney.com/mba), where I’ve spent 15+ years helping ambitious applicants earn admission to top MBA programs. My clients have earned admits to HBS, Stanford GSB, Wharton, MIT Sloan, Columbia, Kellogg, Booth, Haas, Yale SOM, LBS, INSEAD, and other top US, UK & EU programs. I’m especially strong at helping applicants turn complex, nonlinear, or highly competitive backgrounds into clear, differentiated MBA stories. I’ve worked with candidates from consulting, banking/finance, tech, product, healthcare, entrepreneurship, family business, nonprofit, government, and international backgrounds, including many applicants navigating U.S. MBA admissions from Asian, European, and other global markets. My edge is the combination of admissions judgment and career strategy. As a former Wharton admissions fellow, I understand how admissions readers evaluate leadership, career logic, school fit, recommendations, interviews, and personal differentiation. As a career coach and former consultant/hiring manager, I also help clients build MBA narratives that make sense beyond admission: why this degree, why now, why this school, and why your goals are credible. I work best with applicants who want thoughtful, strategic, high-touch coaching. I’ll help you pressure-test your school list, sharpen your positioning, build a compelling resume, craft authentic essays that tell your unique story, prepare recommenders, and walk into interviews with clarity and confidence.
