I had the pleasure to work with Mary and was on a very short timeline. She was super quick and extremely thoughtful on her feedback on my essays. Her interview prep was extremely helpful and she really set me up for success by focusing on some hard questions, which actually did end up coming up in the interview and I was able to confidently navigate. I got into HBS and I did this very rushed, as I was on a super tight timeline. I did my essays while I had COVID and my interview during graduation week. Bless Mary and don't think twice. She is excellent!

I worked with Brennen on my applications for deferred MBA programs. He’s been a constant source of support for me throughout the process and has been nothing but empathetic, honest, and strategic with his feedback on my candidacy. Whether it was going over countless essay revisions or conducting mock interviews, Brennen went above and beyond to help me prepare for every step of the process and I’m so thankful to have worked with him. With his guidance, I was able to get into my dream school!

Mary is an awesome coach! Her HBS interview class was super helpful when I prepared for this challenging interview. She gave great tips on how to approach different questions and gave us plenty of time to practice the skills she taught. Highly recommend working with her!

I worked with Kathryn for over eight months as a deferred MBA applicant. I highly recommend her for all MBA applicants seeking a coach! She is honest, patient, adaptable, and empathetic. She relentlessly pushed me to do better. Even when I was ready to quit, Kathryn encouraged me to keep going. In fact, I came into each session with Kathryn thinking I had an amazing essay and left with at least 20-30 ways I could make it stronger. She’s also a talented writer! Kathryn pushed me to reflect deeply on my experiences and helped me write concise, expressive essays. Additionally, Kathryn helped me build a side project to strengthen my application. As we crafted my story, I wanted to take on an extra project in my community to demonstrate passion and leadership. Kathryn helped me brainstorm and launch a project that aligned with my application, a service that very few coaches offer. Finally, I appreciate Kathryn’s optimism. When I was looking for a coach, a consultant from a long-established MBA admissions firm told me I would not get into Harvard/Stanford. Kathryn never told me a school was out of reach. She encouraged me to apply, regardless of acceptance rate, and I’m grateful that she was my coach!

I scheduled a mock interview with Camden, and he was an amazing coach! Camden studied my application from start to finish and came prepared to our session with a set of questions that simulated an HBS interview. At the same time, Camden dynamically asked follow-up questions to help me practice staying calm under pressure. He drilled into my weaker responses, uncovering blind spots in my preparation. I left our session with a clear understanding of what I needed to do next. I recommend Camden for all HBS interviewees because he knows the school really well. In fact, during our mock, Camden asked questions about minor details in my application that my actual HBS interviewer ended up asking me on interview day!

I attended Mary’s HBS interview workshop, which was very informative. Mary has great energy, and I left her workshop with an understanding of what to expect in general, sample interview questions I should prepare for, tactics to prepare for unanticipated questions, and high-level tips to approach the interview. Scrolling through GMAT Club and Reddit for advice is tricky, so I was happy to learn about the interview from an HBS alum!

Neha was really supportive even after the applications were in and offered a great second opinion on various parts of the application - prompting me to think more and craft a better a story.

I took Neha's workshop on how to ace the product management interview and her slides are the most detailed slides I've ever come across and will be often be referring to. I will definitely keep her in mind when it comes to 1-1 coaching as well.

Sushmitha is super helpful with case prep! She's very organized and knowledgeable with great resources for structured case practice. Extremely willing to start with you wherever you're at and polish all the case skills necessary for interviews. Casing is a definitely a tough challenge, but Sushmitha can explain everything about the art of crafting the best frameworks and responses. Even more, she helps you consistently practice every case type and topic to be best prepared to crush the interview!

Chas was exactly the coach I needed. He helped me start big picture to identify my unique why for business school and craft my narrative to draw out the most compelling aspects of my personal and professional experience. With that information, he guided me in identifying my ideal target schools and designing a comprehensive yet digestible application strategy, complete with key milestones, deadlines, and tips to keep in mind. Through it all, he offered encouragement, honest feedback, and tailored advice specific to my needs. He has just the right touch and brought invaluable perspective.
