Ben and Claire did a wonderful job showcasing essays from two candidates with varying backgrounds and highlighting specific feedback that can be applied to our own essays, regardless of our own experiences.

Attended the Writing a Holistic Set of HBS Essays (with Top Leland Coaches) and reviewing two full sets of essays with open discussion about what does and doesn't work definitely helped get the wheels turning for my one essays. Even if time crunched, a worthwhile session to attend to make writing time more efficient!

I got to see essay writing in a whole new light than I was used to. The session was very informative and I got so many ideas which I plan to incorporate into my own essays.

Ben and Claire fit a ton of content in one hour and provided really helpful feedback to help us understand what made each HBS essay a strong submission.

Ben and Claire were very informative and personable! Really appreciate their time

Very knowledgeable and engaging. Loved the webinar he conducted

I sent her my messy, panic-written essay draft way ahead of schedule (oops), and somehow she managed to deliver insanely thoughtful, detailed feedback in under 5 hours. Like, who does that? I thought I had a decent draft… turns out I was blissfully blind to a dozen issues she spotted instantly. Sure, you could try feeding your essay to ChatGPT, but it won’t tell you where your "voice disappeared" or why your transition made it sound like you suddenly switched careers mid-sentence. Hanie will, and she’ll do it kindly, too. Total game changer. 10/10 would submit another existentially chaotic draft just to watch her fix it.

Various strategies by Kamna actually helped a lot in this session to uncover the essay writing and story telling components.

I really liked her sessions conducted so far on Leland, those are very informative and have a practical approach.
