Testimonials

I cannot recommend Personal MBA Coach enough. I was admitted with scholarships to Booth, Kellogg, and Anderson.

I went to art school for my undergraduate degree, earning a BFA, and have worked in the film industry for a little over 5 years. With such an unconventional background, it was particularly important that I present a strong story in my application. Scott provided guidance to holistically craft my story through every aspect of the application, from what was on my resume to my essays and short answers.

His team helped polish my resume, by strengthening the way I bulleted my accomplishments at work. The school-specific interview prep was also super beneficial, helping me think of good experiences to pull from to provide examples to answer interview questions and structure my responses to be clear and easy to follow.

Beyond this, Scott was available at every step of the process to advise me about what schools would be the right fit for me, what story works best for each essay question, and whether I needed to retake the GMAT.

When I applied to MBA programs 3 years ago I was waitlisted at T20 schools. Personal MBA coach was 10000% worth the investment, especially considering I earned 180k total in scholarships from two M7 schools.

Scott and his team provided a ton of support throughout this process. The MBA search process is naturally very time-consuming and Scott’s process helped to bring structure throughout the search. I feel that I got an outcome at the top end of my range with two M7 admits with solid scholarship money and a full-ride admit to a T-15 program.

With the help of Scott and the entire Personal MBA Coach team, I was accepted to 5 of my 6 schools with 1 waitlist (all T15 programs). I received over $375k in scholarship funding, including $115k to an M7 and a full ride to a T15 program. The investment in Scott and his team is well worth it. The essay feedback forced me to reflect on the “why’s” of my application, which ultimately made me a stronger candidate and more prepared for interviews. They helped me tailor my story for each school, all without compromising the authenticity of my voice. It is no small feat applying to six schools, but with the project management tool and guaranteed next day turn around for essay edits, I was able to submit strong applications well ahead of the application deadlines. Scott and his team also provided excellent interview preparation from comprehensive prep guides to mock interviews. I am confident I would not have received the results I did without the support of Scott and his extremely talented team. I would 10/10 invest in their services again!

Scott and his team were very helpful in helping me craft my story and find the main points I should mention in my applications. He was really interested in helping me write a better application, and providing me with honest feedback. Besides the essays, the mock interviews were really helpful. I was able to improve my answers significantly and be better prepared for the real interviews. He was also very fast at responding to my messages and inquiries. I would definitely recommend Scott and Personal MBA Coach to anyone considering Business School!

I can’t recommend Scott and his team enough. They are extremely comprehensive, structured, and professional in their approach to guiding you. Applying to business school really forces you to introspect and ask yourself why you really want an MBA. Scott and co, really help you through this introspection process, and you kind of learn more about yourself in the process, and I think that’s why they are very good at what they do. I applied to only M7 schools + Haas, I got interviews from 5 and 1 admit (so far). Even the interview coaching was very structured. If I were a prospective MBA applicant, I wouldn’t think twice about going elsewhere, Scott is your guy.

Scott was fantastic to work with. His advice and guidance helped me build exceptional applications that truly expressed my voice and my story, especially helping me shape my vague goals into something that could be communicated more succinctly. He was also comfortable talking through why to go with his recommended approach when I had questions, which was very helpful. I got into 4/6 schools I applied to, including an M7, and got a full-ride scholarship to one school!

Scott Edinburgh, MJ Shores, and the rest of the Personal MBA Coach Team were my lifesavers during both the MBA prep and application process. They were candid, supportive, and provided timely feedback. Their industry knowledge and the personalized coaching they provide truly do extend past that of other consulting companies. I enthusiastically recommend the Personal MBA Coach team to all prospective MBA students – I can ensure you they will be there to help you each step of the way.

I never thought I would be one to pay for an admissions consultant, but as a military applicant applying from deployment, I could not have achieved the admissions results I did without Scott’s help. Scott and his team flexed to my variable military schedule and requirements to help me work through the process efficiently, and his in-depth admissions knowledge helped me craft an application I was proud of.

I had a great experience working with Scott and the Personal MBA Coach Team. I was impressed by the structured and personalized support I received. As a result, I was able to stay on track throughout the application process from brainstorming for essays to preparing for interviews. Thanks to Scott’s (and the rest of PMC’s) help, I got accepted into 3 schools (2 M7 and 1 T15) with generous scholarships from all of them. I would highly recommend Scott and the Personal MBA Coach Team.

Scott and the Personal MBA Coach team helped me get into my dream school! (M7) I had a fantastic experience working with Personal MBA Coach, who provided comprehensive support and guidance on every aspect of the application process.

My experience working with MJ Shores, Scott Edinburgh and the entire Personal MBA Coach Team far exceeded my expectations. MJ especially was my lifesaver during the MBA prep and application process! She was helpful, generous with her time, and went above and beyond to provide unmatched support during the entire process. With the support of MJ and the rest of the Personal MBA Coach Team I was admitted into an M7 school, and my top pick. I truly don’t believe I could have done it without them.

3 for 3! Wharton, CBS, and LBS Admit. Scott really knows what he’s doing. I appreciated his direct and honest feedback throughout the entire application process. The turnaround time was extremely quick and his subtle yet powerful changes elevated my essays to another level. He was extremely accommodating to my doubts, queries, and last minutes nerves. I would highly recommend him.
