Thanks to Laura, I was accepted to 2 out of 4 schools with large scholarships! Why working with Laura was such a pleasure? 1. Polished essays – She makes sure that the essays are nothing short from great. The essays went back and forth so many times that sometimes the final essays are completely different from the original essay. It took a lot of time and effort but that’s what it takes to get in to your reach schools. 2. Quick response - I sent her last-minute scholarship essays and she was able to review them in time. I am an international applicant but never had a problem communicating with her despite the time difference. I recommend working with Laura to anyone aiming for top MBA schools! I am excited to attend INSEAD this fall.

Laura and I worked together on 4 business schools and I got admitted into 2 of the 4 with a substantial fellowship from one. We made a great team!! Laura was very clear in the aspects she could help me with and was always a pillar of support as I put together my application. She effortlessly brought out my stories and helped me highlight the experiences that were unique and interesting in my essays. Coming from an over represented pool of applicants, this aspect seemed most important. She paid lots of attention to the details in my essays. There were several points where I doubted parts of my content. At these points, she would ask me the right questions, kindling my experiences and helped me stay on track. She encouraged me to try new ideas and themes for my essays and was ready with feedback in less than two days. Her quality and quick feedbacks really helped turn in my applications well before the deadlines. We also tried some mock skype interview sessions and these really made the interview experiences a breeze. I am so glad I got to work with her and so grateful to her for making my MBA dream come true!!

Laura helped me to refine my story, gave me strong feedback on my essays and served as an invaluable guide through the entire admissions process. Laura is highly recommended! 5 stars, 6 if I could.

I worked with Laura on my MBA application and she is definitely the best! Besides fast feedback and patience, she is professional, open to any question and good at inspiring me to help me explore my strength and stories. I could not recommend her more to applicants who would like to look for a great consultant on school applications.

Working with Laura Nelson was an absolute pleasure! She was very responsive and provided great suggestions/guidance all the way through the application process. I would highly recommend working with her. I ended up getting into my top choice MBA program (among others) and I landed a sizable scholarship as well. Well worth the hourly rate!

Laura was the exact consultant I needed – honest, supportive, reliable, and an expert with the Business School application process. From our first call to my last essay draft, Laura was there throughout the entire journey. At the beginning, Laura spent significant time understanding who I was and what I wanted to accomplish. This is one of the reasons Laura was able to really help me bring out the best in my stories and applications. Additionally, she was very responsive and always made time for a phone call. Lastly, she could always find a way to reduce word count while maintaining the idea! I am beyond pleased with the results and want to thank Laura for helping me successfully navigate through this challenge.

I had an amazing experience working with Pamela and would highly recommend her! Like most prospective MBA students, I was balancing a demanding professional and personal life when I began my MBA journey and Pamela’s insight, advice, approach to working together was incredibly valuable. Communication is key in so many aspects of life and is a skill in which Pamela excels. After our initial consultation conversation I felt that Pamela understood what my goals were as a prospective student. We followed up very quickly on a strategy and package that was catered to my needs and objectives. One example of her process that I found incredibly valuable was a clear understanding of the expectations around timing and turnaround for feedback on essays. As we moved through reviewing essays for my top school picks I was able to schedule my time accordingly to ensure I was focused on the highest priority essay at the time, (based on deadline or the essay requiring the most polish). Pamela’s feedback was always on time, succinct, easy to follow and very relevant. Being able to plan and manage my schedule with my MBA work made a very demanding process that much easier. As Pamela and I moved through the process to mock interviews Pamela’s advice really shined, as she provided insights into the types of questions to expect, how to best frame responses and most importantly, how to show off my unique talents, abilities and experiences. At the end of it all, I was focused on programs that would provide hands on experiences in international business and was accepted into one of my top choices in George Washington University in Washington D.C. I spent the following two years building an incredible network of colleagues and friends, working on several consulting engagements in Mumbai, Shanghai and Taipei, and creating memories that will last a lifetime. Working with Pamela was great and will always be a part of my MBA story.

Pamela helped me achieved my goal of going to my first choice school Chicago Booth School of Business. Not only that, but she also helped me get accepted to several schools after being rejected when applying by myself for the first time. Coming from Mexico it was hard to understand which school had the culture that best fit with me, Pamela helped me identify those schools and make sure I made the best decision. Additionally, she advised me on improving my chances of getting accepted after having a low GMAT score. The best value added by her is her passion and commitment to achieve your goals, she has a unique approach and strategy to help you create a bespoke story based on your history and curriculum. If you are looking to get into a top 10 school, even with a low GMAT score, she is the best MBA consultant you will find.

Pamela has provided thoughtful and essential guidance during the process. The way she prepared me, from the brainstorming to the final essays, was key as she carefully planned the best way to show my skills and experience to the admission team. Pamela was an essential part of my application and without her, I wouldn't have been admitted. I would recommend her without hesitation.

Pamela was an invaluable resource during my application process. Her honest feedback and assessment with my essays and applications undoubtedly enabled me to put my best foot forward. Thanks to Pamela's help and review I was able to get into my top school! I am extremely glad I decided to work with her, and would absolutely recommend Pamela to anyone looking to apply to a graduate business degree program.
