I studied engineering and graduated 4 years ago. When I approached the GMAT, I was stuck and felt really frustrated, especially for the quant part. Andrea helped me become focuses, sharpened my math tools and taught me how to "read critically". He slowly empowered me to the point I was independent. I spent three months of intense prep and I got 715. He supported me with all the application processes too. Andrea is really prepared and competent.

Andrea has an incredible ability to explain complex problems clearly and in a structured way. Beyond helping me understand the fundamental strategic frameworks, he taught me to think like a consultant, ask the right questions, and anticipate the type of questions and scenarios during the interview. He listened, understood me as a person, and encouraged me to be myself, emphasizing aspects such as recognition of self worth and confidence. His tailored approach allowed me to significantly improve my communication and stress management skills, which will are serving me well even beyond the interview. It was a 360-degree preparation, covering areas I never imagined would be relevant. I received the offer from BCG where I did my summer consultant internship and then got into McKinsey, where I currently work.

Long story short (as he always says "think and communicate output first"), the interviews went perfectly, and I received offers from all three MBB... I never thought it was possible to feel so ready for consulting interviews. Andrea quickly identified my weaknesses and provided concrete tools to tackle every type of case. We covered every situation and every detail of the interview, even those I hadn’t considered relevant. His approach, combining practical exercises, communication strategies, and mindset coaching, made all the difference.

From 475 to 705... I contacted Andrea at a time when I was very demoralized after getting 475 on the GMAT. I had invested significant time, effort, and resources in preparing for the test, but it wasn’t enough, and I wanted to change my approach. I immediately shared my goal of achieving at least 675. What I appreciated most was his reassurance: he told me that by following a focused, intensive preparation with him, I would succeed. Over the two months I had available, we worked at every possible hour, and I quickly realized that every session with Andrea was extremely useful in resolving my doubts. Lesson by lesson, I built up knowledge until I finally felt ready. I achieved a score of 705, which was a great satisfaction.

Kwaku was instrumental in helping me successfully reapply to business school after an initial round of rejections. He provided clear, structured guidance across every part of the process- from GMAT/GRE strategy and study planning to refining my personal statement and overall application narrative. What stood out most was his ability to diagnose exactly what wasn’t working in my prior applications and help me reposition my story in a more compelling, authentic, and admissions-ready way. He was thoughtful, detail-oriented, and very honest in his feedback, which made a huge difference. With his support, I was ultimately admitted to a top business school. I would highly recommend Kwaku to anyone navigating MBA admissions, especially reapplicants who need strategic clarity and strong execution.

Gutham is great. He is great at being a mentor with lots of knowledge and advice to share.

After searching for a job for several years without making meaningful progress, working with Kwaku helped bring structure and clarity to the process. He was thoughtful and direct in diagnosing what wasn’t working, helped refine positioning and strategy, and focused on practical, repeatable improvements. Within about two months of working together, I was able to land a role. His approach is analytical, honest, and results-oriented.

Miles’s industry knowledge helped me craft my media & entertainment aspirations in a way that made sense for MBA admissions committees. Miles went the extra mile reviewing my application materials in a timely manner while providing honest and actionable feedback. I don’t think I’d be as successful in my MBA applications without his advice.

Colin has been an outstanding MBA coach throughout my application journey. As a Stanford GSB MBA and Special Forces veteran, he brings a rare mix of strategic clarity, empathy, and precision. He supported me across applications to Stanford GSB, UC Berkeley Haas, Northwestern Kellogg, and NYU Stern, and his guidance went far beyond surface-level edits. What sets Colin apart is how intentional his feedback is. His suggestions are never arbitrary. They’re rooted in a deep understanding of admissions strategy and how an applicant’s story is perceived by adcoms. His input consistently helped me sharpen my essays and improve my interview performance, and I always understood why a change mattered. With his support, I’ve been admitted to Haas, Kellogg, and NYU Stern. I am still waiting on Stanford GSB. Beyond results, Colin made a typically stressful process feel manageable and empowering. He’s thoughtful, receptive, and was genuinely invested in my success. If you’re looking for a coach whose feedback you can truly trust, Colin is an exceptional choice.

Andrea’s professional preparation, delivered with clarity and humanity, completely transformed my study approach that turned into a great score. I really felt understood during our session and he infused a lot of confidence in me. Really unlocked my full potential.
