If you're looking for a sign to work with Victoria look no further. I reached out to Victoria as I was beginning my interview preparation and she was simply remarkable. She helped me brainstorm the best stories from my experiences and frame them in ways that really resonated with my interviewers. Victoria always went the extra mile and had genuine care for me throughout my entire interview prep. She was great for a wide range of schools as well not just Columbia! I could not have been happier that I chose Victoria as my coach!

Matt has been incredibly helpful throughout my CBS application process. In my opinion, he truly excelled in each step of the process: from reflecting on my personal and professional goals and shaping a cohesive story, to refining the narrative of each essay and providing valuable interview advice. I also deeply appreciated his flexibility and willingness to accommodate tight deadlines to ensure we met every milestone - thanks to all this, I got admitted to Columbia Business School MBA program!

Geri helped me every step of the way! Her interview feedback was comprehensive and the questions she asked me helped me shape my story ahead of the real HBS interview. I felt so much more prepared having worked with Geri ahead of my interview!

Anna was so wonderful to work with -- she was kind, patient, and very good at what she does! We did a mock interview for HBS, and I feel 100% more confident after working with her. She thoroughly prepared for the mock and gave me incredible tips and feedback. She was a gem to find -- highly recommend! Thank you :)

I was unsure about my next career steps and had a conversation with Matthew. He connected me with the right people and helped me clarify my priorities, which guided me toward making a more confident and informed decision.

Similar to other reviews, I found Marie when I was plateauing in my studies and felt like I wasn’t making much progress with another tutor. I was scoring around a 645 on practice tests and wanted to accelerate my progress to achieve an ambitious goal of 695 on the GMAT. After my first intro call with Marie, I knew she was exactly what I needed. Marie is incredibly sharp, knowledgeable, committed and efficient with your time (perfect for anyone with a demanding work schedule or short timeline). She knows the GMAT like the back of her hand and has a wealth of resources to back it up. She taught me to see the problems in a new way which helped me not only achieve but surpass my goal of 695 by 30 points (99th percentile)! I owe it to Marie and recommend her to anyone looking to fast track their studies and reach their target score. I can’t thank you enough, Marie!

Claudia is nothing short of amazing. I would not have been able to go through the MBA process successfully without her deep insight, support, and passion. Claudia excels at helping you find your voice, and helps you translate that into powerful essays. Her mock interviews were instrumental in my success as well. Most of all though, Claudia is someone who is in your corner and personally invests herself in your journey. Her passion for coaching and mentorship is what makes working with her so special. I cannot recommend her enough!

Andrew has been a great coach for me so far -- I thought of myself as someone who is self-sufficient and could probably do essays and the entire MBA process myself using online materials, but he has added additional insights and layers to my essays that I wouldn't have been able to get to myself. He has been extremely worth the price and made me wish I hired him sooner. He's really shown me the value of MBA coaches.

Faith coached me from zero case experience to interview-ready in just two weeks, and her guidance was invaluable. She quickly pinpointed my weak spots and made every practice session focused and encouraging. With her clear feedback and actionable tips, I walked into my interviews feeling confident and prepared-and ultimately landed an offer from BCG! Highly recommend working with Faith; she is knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely committed to her clients’ success.

Working with Betsy has been an absolute game changer. She is, without question, one of the best experts in the MBA admissions space: deeply knowledgeable, extraordinarily connected, and fully up to date with the latest developments across top business schools. Her understanding of how admissions committees think and what they look for gives her an unmatched edge; her guidance isn’t just informed, it’s influential. What really amazed me was how quickly she understood me. In just two days and a single 30-minute call, she was able to pull powerful stories out of my messy, unstructured thoughts. She got to the core of who I am faster than anyone else I’ve worked with. Once she did, everything in the application just started to flow naturally. She has a clear methodology, strong resources, and a super professional process. I trusted her judgment completely and I ended up getting interviews from some of the best business schools in the world. She’s direct, no-BS, and knows exactly where to push and what to highlight. She spots strengths and weaknesses immediately and helps you craft your best version. On top of that, she brings amazing energy, she’s kind, patient, authentic, and genuinely cares about your success and you as a person. Meeting Betsy changed the way I see my career: I’m more confident, more self-aware, and truly excited about what’s next. She’s not just an MBA coach; she’s a mentor. Working with her was by far the best money I spent during this whole process. This journey is long and tough, but if you have a solid profile and a real shot at schools like HBS or Stanford, don’t do it alone. Betsy is the person you want by your side. I’d work with her again without a second thought.
