Working with Oren was a huge difference maker for the deferred MBA application process. His guidance was a huge component of my admission to Wharton, MIT Sloan, Booth, and Kellogg. In the beginning, Oren took the time to help me craft and tighten up a compelling story. He was able to immediately identify potential pain points and red flags in my narrative, and fine tuned my strategic vision into a story that made sense, was cohesive, and spoke to what business schools were looking for. He knew how to tease out my story and put my best foot forward, and comprehensively suggested edits to each piece to make my voice shine through. Even when I had quick one-off questions, he could always be counted upon. Finally, Oren's mock interview was extremely thorough and covered nearly every single avenue/potential question that was asked. He knew which parts of my application would raise questions, and simulated an interview experience that was pretty much identical to the real deal while providing clear and actionable feedback. Following his advice led me to convert every single interview I was offered into an acceptance. Oren's value-add from working in the admissions office of a very competitive school was very evident, his passion for the work shone through, and I know from the past 6 months working with him that he truly loves helping students reach their potential. I can't recommend Oren enough for anyone looking at MBA programs (and particularly deferred MBA programs.)

From the very first phone call with Oren, I could tell he was a genuine person that had my best interests in mind. The perspective he was able to provide on essays and the application process as a whole were incredible. As someone who is prone to over-stressing about things, working with Oren helped make the grueling admissions process much easier to manage, as I knew I was able to put my best foot forward. This not only helped my applications but sanity as well! He's very responsive and was always willing to help in a pinch. Thanks to Oren I was accepted, with a scholarship, to a program I couldn't be more excited to attend!

I simply could not recommend Oren's services or Oren as a person enough. Sure, he is highly knowledgeable about the latest admissions trends and how to execute dynamic strategies in order to stand out. He can help you decode the mysteries of what business schools are looking for in their application essays, coach you through essay writing strategies and time management, and even help you with the confusing minutia of preparing these applications as a whole. He is a master of these things, without a doubt. However, I think Oren's greatest strength is his ability to get the best of you out on paper, which can be so difficult, awkward, and daunting for many. I was shocked at how easy it was to talk to Oren and to express to him my thoughts and justifications for pursuing business school. Quickly, I became totally comfortable speaking to him about my trepidations, my doubts about my own personal value and strange professional experiences in the MBA context, and my "non-business school" thoughts about what I wanted to learn in life and how I wanted to grow. As we had these conversations during my quick application turnaround and essay writing frenzy, he was able to stop me, redirect me to "say more about that," and help me pursue thoughts and motivations as I was processing them and speaking them aloud. It's hard to explain, but Oren would continually say "that's it!" or "this needs to be in your essay" and "that's gold!" It was magic, and as a result, my essays were full of my personality, my professional value and my aspirations. Even now, as I go through my MBA, I go back to those essays I wrote with him as a recalibration point. Oren is a coach extraordinaire, and I couldn't be happier I found him and his services.

I spoke with a few admissions consultants before reaching out to Oren, and decided to work with him as he came across as a very genuine person. From the get-go, Oren was very willing to answer any questions I had, and more importantly, insisted on taking time to understand my "why MBA" story before working together. As a first-time international applicant, I valued Oren's previous experience as an admissions director, and through this process, recognized that he had a perspective that my friends and family would not be able to provide. Having read many more applications before mine, Oren was able to advise which parts of my stories would resonate, and I appreciated that he was always generous and upfront with his feedback. I eventually received an offer from my dream school and spent less than what other companies would have charged for such services. I would definitely recommend Oren to anyone who is thinking about working with an admissions consultant!

Oren never missed a beat. Ever. I found him at a time when I was struggling through the application process, and joining forces with him was an absolute game changer. Though I was looking to work only on essays, he reviewed all of my application materials (test scores, resumes, transcript) and took the time to get to know me not only as an MBA applicant, but as a person. You are not just another number - he actually cares. Oren's professionalism and astuteness is incomparable, and knowing I could lean on him for guidance gave me the much-needed strength to keep pushing forward. With his support, I was able to fluently communicate the heart of my story and goals. I valued Oren's wisdom so much that after submitting my applications we worked on interviews. Oren was always gracious with his time, honesty, encouragement, and advice. I couldn't have done this without him, and as someone who is highly-discerning, I recommend him to any and everyone (which I did!) who is taking the MBA leap. Team Oren!

I spoke to a lot of admissions consultants before I found Oren, and the reason he stood out to me was that he actually took the time to get to know me. Oren and I were able to form a trust-based relationship that helped me refine my true motivations for attending graduate school and write personal statements that reflected my values and let my true voice shine through. Oren also had so many incredible insights on how to improve my resume and strategize on which schools would be right for my career and goals, and his experience as a former admissions director was clearly a differentiator in this process. With Oren's guidance, I was able to submit my application with a lot of confidence and was admitted into four highly respected schools, which I could not have done without his perspective. I'm grateful for his help, and would highly recommend Oren to anyone who is seeking a personalized approach to their higher education journey.

I had an exceptional experience with Loubna as my admission consultant over the past year. Her approach to building my profile was incredibly thorough and insightful. She didn’t just dive into the application process; instead, she spent time analyzing my strengths and weaknesses, addressing the gaps well before we began drafting the actual application. Loubna’s guidance through the standardized tests was also invaluable. She helped me navigate the complexities of test preparation and made sure I focused on the key areas that would make the most impact. Her prioritization skills kept me on track, ensuring I met every deadline without unnecessary stress. What stood out the most was her responsiveness. No matter the time or day, Loubna was always there to provide support and answer my questions. Working with her was a smooth and positive experience, and I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for expert advice and personalized assistance in their admission journey.

Loubna is simply the best at what she does, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have chosen her. Working with her is a decision that will pay dividends far beyond acceptance letters. It wasn’t just about applications; it was a journey of self-discovery. Her thought-provoking questions and guidance helped me gain a deeper understanding of myself, my motivations, and my aspirations. By the end of the process, I didn’t just feel more confident in my application—I had a clearer vision of what I wanted to achieve. I got accepted to Stanford GSB and an interview invitation from MIT Sloan, and I truly believe she can help you achieve acceptance to your dream schools. After thoroughly exploring countless options—including doing it myself, Fiverr, and consulting with other admission experts—it became clear that Loubna was in a league of her own. Working with her exceeded all my expectations. What truly sets Loubna apart is the extraordinary dedication and care she brings to her work. She doesn’t just see you as another applicant—she sees you as an individual with unique strengths, ambitions, and potential. Her ability to inspire confidence, provide feedback, and help you dig deep into your own story is unparalleled. Her insights are razor-sharp, her encouragement is steadfast, and her commitment to your success is unwavering. When I was considering applying to several M7 schools, she helped me refocus my energy on fewer, more targeted applications. This strategy paid off tremendously—I was able to submit polished applications that truly represented my best work. The interview preparation process was thorough and tailored to each school. For Stanford, Loubna’s mock interview helped me practice articulating my story in a personal and reflective way. For MIT, she helped me prepare for their behavioral interview style, ensuring I had strong examples that demonstrated both analytical and leadership capabilities. Throughout the process, her responsiveness was exceptional. Despite time zone differences, she was always available for quick questions or last-minute review sessions. Her attention to detail and ability to manage tight deadlines with grace and poise made the entire process seamless. For anyone considering going to grad school, I cannot recommend Loubna highly enough.
