What's included
Clients work with me, Avi Lidgi, president of Twainstein, not some junior consultant I hand you off to. I only work with 25-30 applicants per year, and I usually have triple that amount of requests. This means that I can pay you the type of attention and service you find at a five-star hotel--every detail of your application will be spit-shined and polished before we are through. I am not a mercenary consultant with a day job. This is what I have done full time since 2007. In terms of results and year-over-year acceptance ratio to your dream school, I can share with you my documented results when we meet for a free consult. Excited to help you on your application journey!
- Applicants will submit applications that exponentially increase their chances of acceptance to their dream school.

Avi L.
Top 10 MBA Specialist. Caring, Honest, Supportive & Results Oriented!
My name is Avi and I have devoted most of my career to helping applicants realize their dream of being admitted to their top school. I do that by bringing my experience behind the scenes in admissions, using my experience as a professional writer and editor at the LA Times and a life spent in the world of higher education. I am not the cheapest consultant because I do not take on many clients. Those I do take on get my full and undivided attention. We spend countless hours together getting to know you and your story so that I can help you pull out key elements of both to create a narrative that wows (!) the admissions committee. I am more than an editor. I guide you through the often confusing application process and help you to develop a narrative strategy that will work uniquely for each school. That means customizing your resume, strategically helping you to select schools, taking a deep dive into who you are so that when we develop your narrative branding strategy, we have multifaceted stories to draw from. We go through many draft revisions together and will not stop until we get it perfect. This applies to resume overhaul, personal statement, supplementary essays, letter of recommendation consultation and, finally, mock interview prep. I specialize in MBA/grad school applicants and high school students applying to Top 25 schools and the Ivies. I only take on 20-25 clients per season, as I prefer to give each client the extra attention required to submit successful applications and keep my success rate among the highest in the industry (92% of clients admitted to one of their top 3 schools). As I said, I am certainly not the cheapest. But if you are looking for the royal treatment and want to work with the best in the business, don't leave anything to chance--I know the admissions game better than anyone and I would be thrilled to help you navigate its tricky waters. I look forward to helping you get accepted to your dream program!
