Zero to Hero - Verbal Expert
If you're just getting started, and especially if you need to prepare in a short amount of time, this package includes 10 hours of mentoring (at a $100 discount) as well as resources I'll share to help you succeed. I'm a verbal expert - consistently scored 50 or 51 on tests - and would love to provide deep help in that area, but I'm a generalist as well in the other GMAT subjects!
What's included
Both behavioral science and personal/client experience have proven that taking tests over and over again improves performance more than studying material for tests. I spend the vast majority of time with clients working through practice tests, discussing and implementing frameworks and processes for each question. My focus in our time together is to help you develop the ability to approach each problem with a plan, self-diagnose mistakes, and make your personal practice/study time 10x more effective.
- I will help you become an expert at structuring your approach to verbal GMAT questions — help you develop a playbook of formulas to approach each verbal question just as you would a quant question. I'll also help you apply best practices for data sufficiency (and other quant), integrated reasoning, and analytical writing, but I find that verbal is where many people struggle the most to find a structured approach.

Nick V.
GMAT Verbal Expert
I build and share extremely tactical, detailed playbooks to win. That's been a theme across my life experience: I studied Economics and Chinese at BYU (4.0, 36 ACT), got consulting offers from McKinsey and BCG, and spent my summer at BCG. As president of BYU's consulting club I put hundreds of hours into coaching classmates through case prep. Then I skipped the full-time offer to co-found Relay, an addiction recovery app. We went through Y Combinator, raised a $1.5M seed, and ran it for three years. Today I'm Head of GMs at Leland, where I run P&Ls and build many of our AI systems myself. Here's how I can help: -YC Applications: I'll cut to the core of your narrative and help shape your business model in a way that consistently gets clients into Y Combinator. -Build with AI: I build agents and automations every day, and I'll help you implement cutting-edge practices and tools into your workflows. -Consulting recruiting: end-to-end prep to land and crush interviews at top consulting firms. -GMAT and ACT: I scored a 760 GMAT and a 36 ACT. The score comes from strategy and timing more than extra content review. -College admissions: building a story that ties your application together, not a list of activities. -Startup founders: validating demand before you build, fundraising, growth/marketing hacks, and everything else it takes to go 0 to 1, 1 to 10, and beyond.
