Testimonials

First off, I was admitted into my dream M7 school with the help of Scott. I engaged with Scott when application deadlines were quickly approaching, and I was struggling with getting my standardized test scores in range. From the moment I started working with Scott, I felt like I was in great hands. Scott helped me develop the perfect strategy to play to my strengths, helped me perfect my essays and applications, and answered all of my questions along the way. I couldn’t recommend him enough, and I’ve sent numerous friends his way since I’ve worked with him. My only regret is not working with him sooner in the process – it truly is the best investment you can make if you’re applying to a top business school.

My experience with the Personal MBA Coach Team has been overwhelmingly positive. Scott and his team are highly responsive, creative and insightful in their consulting services, finding unique ways to position my application that highlights my strengths.
Particularly valuable was the level of flexibility that Scott provided. He was willing to work around my hectic schedule and ensured that my priorities were put first.
I would recommend the Personal MBA Coach Team to anyone looking for an exceptional consulting team that offers a best-in-class service.

I really enjoyed working with MJ last fall, particularly for my Wharton interview. I attended a group practice TBD that she hosted and I found it extremely helpful. We also did one on one coaching. I went to my interview, feeling very prepared and confident, and I just started at Wharton this fall! Hiring a consultant is definitely an investment, but for me it paid off significantly.

Initially, I thought I could handle my MBA application on my own. However, after being waitlisted at my dream school, Wharton, I realized I needed professional help to improve my chances of acceptance. I found Scott and his waitlist strategy package, and he was very responsive and gave me valuable tips and advice during our call. His suggestions were especially helpful since they contradicted some of the advice I had received from friends and family.

Scott’s experience working with Wharton waitlist applicants was evident, and I appreciated his straightforward and honest approach. After following his advice and getting his help with my update letter, I was thrilled to be accepted at Wharton about 1.5 months later. I’m so glad I signed up for Scott’s waitlist strategy. He’s a pro who’s been in the game for a long time, and he knows what he’s doing. I highly recommend Scott to anyone seeking help with their MBA applications, and I wish I had used his services from the beginning. Thanks for everything, Scott!

I was happy to work with Scott and his team. First, for their punctual edits and the necessary push to be on track. Second, for the genuine interest that Scott has in understanding our background and helping us prepare the right content for each school. Lastly, the mock interviews were amazing as each of my mock interviewers were alumni of the school I was preparing for and had prior interviewing experience. It was an wonderful experience working with Scott and I would recommend for any aspiring MBA student.

As a non-traditional applicant, I was very lost in the beginning. MJ took the time to find my strengths to craft a great narrative for my essays. I appreciated that she regularly checked in and gives very candid advice while being empathetic.

I highly recommend MJ as a coach. I attended a mock TBD hosted by MJ, and her support and feedback were extremely helpful. I felt really confident going into the final TBD after being prepped by MJ. She highlighted all my strengths and ensured I was able to showcase it. She also gave me pointers to work on and I am thrilled to be admitted to Wharton! You are in good hands with MJ!

I loved working with MJ. As someone who does not do a lot of writing in my work and who has been out of school for a while having MJ to support me through the application process was vital. She was incredibly responsive and patient, and gave me very clear feedback and guidelines. I especially appreciated her help with my essays, as I found writing them to be the most difficult part of the entire process.

I had a great experience working with Scott! He helped me a lot with narrowing down where to apply and worked with what I had. Made the application process a lot less stressful!

It was such a pleasure to work with Scott through my deferred application process. I had the opportunity to compare my own application process with those of my friends, who used other top consulting firms for their deferred process. It turns out that Scott and the Personal MBA Coach team totally outperformed those big name firms in almost all aspects. No useless and lengthy pre-application personal reflections, no delayed email response, very targeted service for each school, and highly candid and critical feedback for every single word I wrote in my application essays. The most important thing I would highlight here is the multiple systematic and in-depth rounds of essay revisions. I highly recommend deferred applicants to hire Scott as their consultants (as early as possible, as I started my process 18 months before the application deadline) since from my personal experiences, I don’t see anyone else doing the same level of work as Scott does.

I 100% recommend Scott to anyone who is looking for an early start to their MBA application prep. I took the early planning and comprehensive packages, and that gave me an edge in my applications. Scott has a clear idea of what is and isn’t required for each school and his advice and essay edits are very unique for each school, considering exactly what they look for. He is confident, straightforward, and knows when to say no. As an applicant from a family business background, I received advice on how to best position my background and goals, and that helped me secure an admit to a top M7 school.

I heard about Scott through two cousins who had had a very positive experience working with him. When it came to doing my MBA applications, I knew exactly where to turn for guidance. Scott and his team were crucial in providing step-by-step guidance throughout the application process – from feedback on written pieces to organizing GMAT tutoring and offering advice on timelines/deadlines. Everyone I interacted with was extremely insightful and prompt to respond, making the process extremely smooth. I can’t imagine a more capable and helpful consultant to work with. Thanks again for everything, Scott!!!
