MBA/MS Admissions Experts

I hold an MBA from Harvard Business School and a Master's in Public Policy from Harvard Kennedy School. I've coached 10+ clients into MBA programs including HBS, Wharton, Stanford, Oxford, LBS, and INSEAD. Having navigated roles across strategy consulting, finance, VC and impact myself, I work with you to decode unconventional career paths and turn them into a sharp, coherent and distinctive MBA narrative. I specialize in helping you build the genuine story that ties your career trajectories, values, and ambitions into a compelling case for why you belong at a top program.

When I was applying to MBAs, I had four things keeping me up at night. Which schools actually fit. Whether Lauder or the MBA/MPP path made more sense. How to not read like every other consultant in the pile. And whether a below-median GMAT score was going to sink me before anyone read a word I wrote. It didn't. I got in — Wharton MBA, Lauder MA — and I was sponsored by my employer to do it. I'm Vivek. I work with people who are somewhere in that same mess: consultants trying to stand out, international applicants figuring out how to come across, anyone staring down the MBA vs. dual-degree question, and candidates who don't have a perfect score and are wondering if it matters. It's a solvable problem. Reach out.

I am an ESSEC Business School and Paris Sorbonne graduate, with 15 years of experience recruiting and coaching talent. Beyond my executive search work, I regularly participate in admissions interviews and selection boards for leading international institutions and programs including HEC, CEMS, IFM Paris, and NEOMA Business School. I also regularly act as a guest lecturer and career coach at leading business schools including ESSEC, ISG Luxury Geneva, and Rome Business School. Having evaluated hundreds of applications, CVs, and interviews from both candidates and students, I have developed a strong understanding of what makes a profile truly stand out in highly competitive selection processes. My coaching combines insider recruitment expertise, strategic positioning, and practical guidance.

I believe my success in MBA admissions came down to one strength: I was able to clearly articulate how my professional and personal experiences had shaped me, how I planned to make the most of an MBA, and where I wanted to go after that. When it comes to admissions, articulating your story is everything. I knew what made me passionate, built a plan for my MBA, and executed on it. If you're applying with a specific path in mind and need help putting that into words, I'm your coach. I recently graduated with an MBA from Wharton and a Master of City Planning from the University of Pennsylvania's Weitzman School of Design, and I specialize in dual degree and nontraditional paths. If you're not yet sure what you want out of the MBA experience, I'm here to help you introspect and sharpen your pitch. I can also offer specialized guidance if you're pursuing a real estate focus at any school or specifically targeting Wharton. It would be my pleasure to help you navigate a process that meant so much to me.

My approach to coaching comes from lived experience, not theory. I recently navigated the graduate admissions process myself and earned offers from the following top programs: The University of Toronto Masters of Science in Applied Computing, Carnegie Mellon Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence Engineering, Columbia Dual MBA/Executive MS: Engineering & Applied Science, UC Berkeley Electric Engineering & Computer Sciences Master of Engineering, and Carnegie Mellon Master of Science in Machine Learning program. I have confirmed my decision to attend the Machine Learning program at Carnegie Mellon this fall. Before that, I graduated Summa Cum Laude from UT Austin with a 3.96 GPA in Computer Science. I know firsthand what it takes to build a compelling application because I have done it across both technical and business programs. My strength is narrative strategy. I help you identify the through line in your experiences, position your story for the specific program type you are targeting, and write essays that are punchy, defensible, and free of inflated claims. Beyond admissions, I bring real-world credibility as someone that has worked at startups, big companies, and nonprofits as well as research experience. I will give you honest assessments, not validation, and I will work with you draft by draft until every word earns its place.

I help MBA and postgrad applicants break into Ivy League and Oxbridge programs with a strong narrative, essays that sound like you, and a strategy built on how these schools think. 100+ admits. $ 2 million+ in scholarship funding secured. Over the past 10+ years I've reverse-engineered what consistently works across Ivy, M7, and Oxbridge admissions and as a Cambridge and LSE admit myself, I know these selection processes from the inside. I find what makes a candidate compelling, often things they haven't articulated themselves and build it into a narrative top programs remember. My own background spans consulting, startups, government, and nonprofits, which helps me find the thread in almost any profile. Recent wins include a low-GPA admit to Harvard's MBA and an Oxford admit with 100% tuition funding. I am especially helpful if you're: - An experienced professional (consulting, banking, industry) who's done more than your application currently shows - A nontraditional candidate with cookie cutter GPAs or scores, with real strengths to surface elsewhere - An international or minority applicant who wants someone who gets your background from the inside - An undergrad whose transcript doesn't tell the whole story - Waitlisted or rejected, and want to build a compelling case for reconsideration What I do - School and programme selection strategy - End-to-end essay and personal statement development — SOP, CV, and beyond - Interview preparation - Scholarship and fellowship application support
