Ian went above and beyond during my MBA journey. He was very responsive and an excellent sounding board. Definitely recommend!

Working with Maya has been wonderful, she gives thoughtful advice and makes sure your interview responses are introspective, honest, and framing your true self. I loved working with her and she truly makes her self available to meet your schedule to make sure you get the help you need. Make sure to hit up Maya for all your interview prep and school prep needs!

Bria was instrumental in my journey to getting accepted at Sloan! She developed a personalized interview prep plan that helped me refine my story and tailor it specifically for MIT. Her insights were key in helping me connect with the interviewer and make a strong impression. Beyond the prep, she genuinely believed in me and consistently supported me, especially when things didn’t go as planned. I can’t recommend her enough to anyone applying to Sloan or any other top program! Thank you, Bria!

I had spoken to multiple coaches, but Vica stood out from the first call. She’s honest, strategic, and incredibly thoughtful in her feedback. She pushed me to think deeper about my story and guided me in framing it in a way that felt authentic but also aligned with what each school values. If you’re lucky enough to work with her, take full advantage. You won’t regret it.

Stone was a wonderful coach throughout the application process. Extremely thankful I came across his profile - he was worth every dollar (and a whole lot more!). He prepared me extremely well for each step of the application, and was a tremendous asset in helping me get admitted into GSB.

Mike was extremely supportive and insightful throughout the process. He was a great help in getting me into GSB. Extremely thankful to have worked with him!

I cannot recommend highly enough hiring Ian as your coach! I decided very late to apply to MBA programs in Round 2 (November), so I had less than 2 months to take the tests and complete my applications for the 4 schools I was applying to (HBS, GSB, Darden, and Fuqua). Ian was undeterred and during our initial call he took the time to understand my career background, personal experiences, and post-MBA goals to steer me in the right direction for crafting my essays and my overall personal brand. This helped immensely with initial drafts of my essays. He then spent countless hours helping me revise my essay drafts, which initially were far beyond word count limits, my resume, short-answers, and essentially all aspects of the applications, even during his holiday vacation. We probably went through 20+ rounds of edits in 3 weeks, and up until the application deadline he was answering last minute questions for me and giving each essay a final review. The hours we spent going back and forth on my application certainly paid off. As a military officer with only a 3.2 GPA, not stellar GRE score, I was offered admission to all four of my schools. Given my low academic stats, I know that Ian’s coaching on my essays and the multiple mock interviews we did together were what got me into these schools. He is very reasonably priced, flexible, responsive, and will help you craft a compelling narrative based on his knowledge of what business schools care about. I am so grateful to have had him as a coach throughout this journey and I cannot recommend him enough for all MBA applicants, but especially for military/veterans.

Jamie was very compassionate and caring. She saw how anxious I was about the interview, offered consolation, and gave me concrete advice to improve. She's very knowledgeable and logical. I'd recommend her!

Tom was absolutely pivotal in helping me get accepted to an LLM program in the U.S. - I was admitted to several top law schools and ultimately chose to enroll at Stanford Law School with a Knight-Hennessy Scholarship! She has deep expertise in the U.S. application process and consistently gave me spot-on advice. What I appreciated most was how calm, supportive, and encouraging she was throughout - it truly boosted my confidence and helped me reach my goals. She also genuinely understands what the process is like for international students, which made a huge difference. Thank you so much, Tom - I couldn’t have done it without you!

I worked with Abdi for my MBA interview for M7 school. He was not only informative but also very caring, helping me come up with answers that are interesting and reasonable. Recommend Abdi!
