Maya would make an excellent coach for any prospective MBA applicant, as she has great knowledge across the application process - from developing a compelling application to nailing the interview to making a final selection between schools. She is thoughtful, attentive to detail, and a very good listener who can tailor her advice based on the candidate. I would choose Maya as an MBA coach in a heartbeat!

Maya was instrumental in guiding me through the application process. She not only helped me refine my essays but also pushed me to narrow my focus and highlight the most compelling aspects of my story. Her thoughtful feedback ensured that each essay was curated specifically to align with the values of each school. Thanks to her support, I was able to get into multiple top school!

I cannot think of a better person to help guide and coach individuals looking to break into MBA programs and consulting. In fact, Alec was CEO of the organization, Service to School, that I deeply credit with the success of my MBA journey. His passion has always been to help others, and Alec has truly excelled at that. I saw this first hand where both Alec and I worked on veteran focused recruiting events at McKinsey. If you are looking for an expert on MBA, grad school or any higher education, as well as consulting interview prep, Alec should be at the top of your list of coaches!

I first met Zain during my undergraduate years, where he was a few years ahead of me and quickly became a mentor. He guided me through career decisions, interview prep, and networking with generosity and clarity. Since then, I’ve seen him succeed in high-impact roles at Google and now in private equity operations, all while continuing to be a thoughtful mentor and coach. His ability to combine real-world experience with practical, personalized guidance makes him an exceptional career coach!

Darla is an excellent coach. I’ve had the chance to work with her on several marketing projects, and her feedback has always been actionable, precise, and thoughtful. She was also incredibly supportive during my admissions process for the HEC Paris Masters in Management. Darla has a sharp instinct for what works and consistently goes above and beyond to help you succeed. Plus, it's a lot of fun just to work and talk with her. Highly recommend!

Maya began business school one year ahead of me and provided invaluable guidance throughout my application process. As I'm currently completing my MBA at Dartmouth, I can attest to her deep understanding of what makes a successful application. Her firsthand experience and willingness to mentor others would make her an excellent coach for prospective business school students. Additionally, her MS/MBA background gives her unique insight for students considering combined degree programs

When I reflect on my journey to Business School, I’m deeply grateful to have had Shola by my side. Through doubts, uncertainty, high expectations, and time pressure, he remained a steady guide. By pushing me to clearly define my overarching goal, he helped me dig deeper into my post-MBA aspirations and position myself effectively for my target schools. From essays to test-taking or waiver applications, he made the process clear, turning what could have been daunting into a manageable and well-organized path.

Matthew helped me prepare for my full-time consulting interviews and had deep and sector specific knowledge on the nuances of MBB and each MBB office. I have never felt more well equipped nor capable of handling any creative market-sizing questions than in a 20 minute discussion with him. Before, I struggled to provide my background in a cohesive and informative way. Matthew brainstormed with me and created a five-point narrative to highlight for the job - which helped me ace my interviews and land an offer! Could not be more grateful for him!
