Trying to find an ideal MBA coach is a tricky partnership. You need to find someone who is honest, understandable, and is able to work with you to be as creative as possible. I had interviewed a few coaches and instantly felt the connection with Scott. As I made a decision to apply very late into the year and was very close to deadlines, Scott was very specific on the schools that I could potentially get into. As I had a very interesting background, I had gone ahead and wrote my life history – which gave him insight to really dive deep to see what I wanted. He then helped me be more specific with my background and overall achievements and fine-tuned things that were needed to make me a great candidate for these programs. I got tutoring for my EA exam as well as interview coaching. I ended up getting into my dream school!!!

Thanks a lot to Scott and his team for helping me every step of the way!
