Fiona was amazing and very helpful in providing feedback that steered me in the difficult essays. She provided input on what I should consider changing and also helped me with alternative ways to frame things, which was fantastic!

Coming into this process, I was not the obvious candidate. Lower GPA and GRE than my target schools, slightly less work experience, and work experience that wasn’t consulting, IB, PE, or any feeder industry into top MBA programs. Geri took all of that and helped me turn it into a strength. She has a real gift for helping you find the thread in your story - the thing that makes your profile genuinely interesting rather than just a list of accomplishments. She pushed me to think about my experiences differently and helped me craft applications that felt like me, not a template. It was also tremendously helpful to have someone who had actually been on the other side of admissions helping me think about my application strategy holistically - she knew exactly how these decisions get made and that came through in everything she advised. She was also incredibly diligent throughout - always checking in, keeping me accountable, making sure nothing fell through the cracks. I got into my dream schools, and truly can’t thank Geri enough!

i already submitted another review, but I'm submitting a second one, just to make a point. this is who you're looking for

Working with Geri was awesome. She was incredibly kind, always prepared, and extremely knowledgeable. She was very flexible and always willing to make time when I needed it. It made the process of applying so much less stressful. She didn't over promise and but definitely over delivered. Geri did a great job of helping me craft a narrative that was authentic. I highly recommend working with Geri to anyone!

Brandon was very responsive and gave me actionable feedback in the week leading up to submissions. It was great to have another pair of eyes on my application. Thanks, Brandon!

Vica was an incredible coach and an even better person to have in my corner during the MBA process. From the beginning, she was thoughtful, strategic, and deeply supportive. She helped me clarify my story, strengthen my essays, and approach each school with much more intention. Her feedback was always detailed and honest, but also encouraging in a way that made me feel more confident every step of the way. She brought far more than essay help. She was a true thought partner from start to finish. She helped me identify and refine my core stories, build a cohesive narrative across schools, and think strategically about how each application should come together. Whether it was structuring my “WMM” essay, choosing the right stories for HBS, or figuring out how to balance my overall application (essays, resume, and recommendations), her guidance was always sharp and incredibly thoughtful. What I appreciated most was how much she truly cared. She checked in on me, celebrated my wins, helped me stay calm when I was spiraling, and went above and beyond many times throughout the process. I never felt like just another client. I felt genuinely supported by someone who was fully invested in helping me succeed. The process can be overwhelming, but Vica made it feel much more manageable. Her guidance played a huge role in my results, and I’m so grateful I had her support through it all. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for an MBA coach who combines sharp admissions instincts with real warmth, generosity, and commitment.

I had a great experience working with Yash on mock interviews. He came very well prepared and was thoughtful in his approach throughout. What stood out most was how he adapted between sessions. We did 1 "normal" mock with feedback at the end and then in our second session, he helped me refine my stories, narrow down my “top 5 STAR stories” and improve how I structured my answers. He was also very honest about how to best use our time, even ending a session early when he felt I had what I needed. Beyond the sessions themselves, he followed up afterward to check on how my interview went, which I really appreciated and showed how thoughtful and supportive Yash is as a coach and mentor. Overall, I found his coaching highly valuable and well worth the investment. In the end, the sessions paid off as I had a successful interview with my dream program!!!!

What I got was some life-changing advice, that has helped me see myself in a new light. Matthew offered exactly the insightful and empathetic support I needed to rework my professional foundations for the future. Would definitely recommend to anyone that strives for that little extra more in their life.

I did an interview prep session for GSB with Yash and it was great. Yash went out of his way to find times that worked for me, spend time ahead of the mock giving me advice on how to prepare, and provided super valuable feedback following the interview.

Had interviewed at a couple dental schools, but gotten waitlisted, so wanted to try interview prep with someone who had a lot of expertise on what admissions look for. Only had one session with Ellen to prep for an upcoming dental school interview- she gave some great guidance and direction. Ended up getting into that school!
