I had a lovely experience working with Jenai on my Stanford MBA application and was ultimately able to secure an admit. Right from our first call together, Jenai was extremely planned and structured. She was patient in hearing about my experiences and sharp with her inputs, which helped me convey my stories effectively. Our mock interview together helped closely simulate the tone of my actual interview. Big thanks to Jenai for being so positive and supportive throughout the process. I’d highly recommend Jenai for anyone looking for support on their essays or interviews for business school, especially Stanford!

I started prepping with Stone as soon as I got my invitation to interview with the GSB and he was the best support system during the entire process. He was patient and made sure I was well prepared to ace the interview (given I had no experience with behavioral interviews). I improved significantly from our first session and was ready for the interview due to his encouragement and feedback. 10/10 value for money!!

Rifat was brilliant and helped me improve my interview skills.

I reached out to Scott on a very short notice and around the New Year period, but he was super willing to help. Within such a short turnaround time, Scott provided super valuable feedback on my Stanford GSB essay. He went above and beyond to ensure my essay align with my overall narrative. His unique perspective and expertise in storytelling really helped my essay stand out. I'm so grateful for his feedback!!!

Mike is an incredible coach! I had applied to the GSB in the past and came up short - Mike patiently reviewed all of my previous materials, provided insightful feedback on how to approach the reapplication, patiently answered all of my questions about recommendations, essays, resume, you name it, and helped me re-focus my experiences into a much more cohesive pitch. It's obvious both from his prior experience and throughout my time working with him that he is deeply knowledgeable about the admissions process and I truly believe his coaching made the difference for me this time. Thank you Mike!

I tried a few different coaches before finding Ben. Savw your time, start with Ben. Do not choose Ben if you want a “yes, man” or an easy process. Choose Ben if you want to get admitted. Ben is extremely efficient with your time, gives specific and tactical feedback, and is not shy if a part of your application does not meet the bar. He is no bullshit. He’s also very kind, cool, and an enjoyable person to work with. His superpower is essay writing, though not to discount his intuition around overall application strategy and tying an entire story together into one cohesive view. 10/10 - have and will continue to full heartedly recommended Ben. Thank you, Ben!

Becky was very knowledgable and gave me great feedback in navigating the Wharton process. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for MBA app support.

Erik gave very thoughtful and detailed advice on essays, strategy. and navigating the interview process. Would not have gotten into Wharton without his help.

Kerry was an absolute gamechanger for me in this application process. She is masterful when it comes to the HSWs and crafting your stories! There is no chance I would have been accepted into HBS without her help! I had some redflags and some issues that I was really really stressed about Kerry did an amazing job in helping me smooth things over and stand out in a big way! So grateful I decided to work with her if you are on the fence, do not over think it. Kerry is the best in the business!!!

Andy is truly one of a kind!! I came into this process feeling like a verrrrrrrry average candidate with average stats & profile, aiming for what felt like impossible targets: Stanford, Harvard, and Wharton. I didn’t even know if those goals were realistic. But after speaking with several people who had worked with Andy, and even more who wished they had, I knew I had to find a way to work with him. From the very first call, I could tell he was different. Andy didn’t ask surface-level questions or offer generic advice. He went deep. He spent real time getting to know me - who I was, what mattered to me, and what made my story worth telling. He worked with me on every single part of my application: resume, essays (reviewed again and again when I felt even the slightest doubt), recommenders, extracurriculars, positioning - everything. He was incredibly meticulous and thoughtful about every single component. What makes Andy exceptional is his ability to find the version of your story that actually matters. He is not focused on telling admissions committees what they want to hear. He is focused on what is real. He told me when something wasn’t good enough and pushed me until it was. And when I needed it most, he gave me confidence. He helped me see my story in a completely new light and taught me how to tell it in the most authentic and powerful way possible. He was a coach, a strategist, a therapist, a friend, and a hype man all in one. And somehow, he made the whole thing fun (and pretty much retaught me how to write in the process haha). If you get the chance to work with Andy, trust his process!!!! Everyone will have an opinion, but Andy will know YOU and the schools you are targeting much much better than anyone else!! Andy does not lose. He does not crack under pressure. And he does not let his clients settle for anything less than their absolute best. That is exactly the kind of person you want by your side during this process. I can say without hesitation: I would not have gotten into any of these schools without Andy’s help. Instead, I walked away with acceptances to Stanford, Harvard, and Wharton. That outcome changed my life, and I will be forever grateful. Andy: Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! You took a real risk on me, and I’ll never forget that. I'm positive I wasn’t the easiest applicant to coach, but you still chose to invest in me. You believed in me when I wasn’t sure I believed in myself. You reassured me at every step, pushed me to dig deep, and went above and beyond to help me craft every application with care and intention. You helped me uncover and articulate the things that matter most to me. You are an incredible human being, and I’m so deeply grateful I had the chance to work with you.
