Mario is an awesome coach. From a technical coaching standpoint, I think Mario is excellent at strategic storytelling, helping you bring real meaning from pivotal points in your own life. He helps takes your past, actions, and events into real learning lessons, moments of reflection, and growth stories that really mesh well with what adcoms love to see. But more importantly, I think Mario is a stand up dude. As a coach, he's very invested in your success and the application experience. He's fun to chat with, has interesting stuff going on, and is very responsive to making sure you get the help you need to succeed. He's very professional with his working time and making sure he gets back to you, bro has never left me hangin.

Mario was my coach for the deferred MBA cycle and demonstrated a phenomenal ability to craft a compelling application story from my life experiences. Through introspective exercises and productive touchpoint meetings, Mario unearthed a level of depth I could not have reached on my own. His inquiry brought clarity to my present identity and future goals, and he expertly detected connections from my past experiences to those goals. Furthermore, he modeled how to eloquently weave these connections throughout my application profile. His familiarity and expertise of the ad comm perspective bolstered my confidence throughout the entire process. Working with Mario has made a world of a difference and I would 100% hire him again if I had to start over.

I felt like I was running out of time and was at a wall. Nate was the exact help that I needed. He is very kind and knowledgable. Even more important is that he cared about me and understood the stress that I was feeling. In every way, I recommend working with Nate!

I heard about Ben from another Leland coach and I’m so glad that I did. Ben was able to guide me through a Stanford GSB mock interview and prepare me for any questions my interviewer gave me on the real day. Throughout the process, Ben was supportive and provided insight from his experience at GSB. If you’re thinking of applying/applied to Stanford GSB, I would highly recommend reaching out to Ben!

I reached out to Jasmine to schedule a mock interview for GSB. She was so knowledgeable about the process and even provided me a master list of questions to prepare. During our mock interview, Jasmine provided specific pieces of feedback and shared it on a spreadsheet I could reference later. I couldn’t ask for a better coach to help me through the interview process!

The Michael Jordan of MBA consultants. Daniel was an invaluable resource in my DMBA application process. He provided very insightful comments and feedback on the story I wanted to tell the adcoms. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to what different schools were looking for, and about specific programs, courses, and clubs at Stanford GSB. His extensive and detailed edits and feedback brought my essays to another level and enabled me to expertly communicate my story. Daniel was also very professional and very accessible when I had any MBA related questions, and worked diligently to help me meet the deadlines. I would highly recommend that anyone looking to apply for an MBA work with Daniel, especially if you are applying to Stanford.

I chose a 5 hour package to get some help on MBA essays and later on interviews. She made zero effort to know about my personal narrative and story for the essays and provided merely grammatical suggestions for my essays. She also took more than 24 hours to respond to my emails about everything. The worst part while prepping for interviews was that she abruptly cancelled a mock interview session 10 mins before the meeting and provided me with a lame excuse for it, and did not even try to reschedule it. She is not worth the money at all, and if you are looking for someone supportive, knowledgeable and professional, look somewhere else because she is definitely not the way to go!

Zander was wonderful to work with for my deferred MBA applications. His turnaround time was so fast! He definitely boosted my confidence throughout the whole process with his knowledge - specifically for healthcare programs!
