When I began my MBA consultant search, SOP immediately stood out from the rest. Kathryn responded to my email within minutes and then less than an hour later we were on a call discussing my MBA aspirations. As someone with a traditional background and very average stats, I was concerned about crafting a unique, compelling story that would resonate with adcoms. My advisor, Matt Haldeman, and the SOP team did just that. Matt got to know me on a deep, personal level and helped me create an authentic, but unique story that I would not have been able to create by myself. Additionally, I knew the MBA admissions process would be incredibly stressful and demanding. Matt and the SOP team supported me and their structured process helped keep my extremely Type A tendencies at bay.
In summary, I believe SOP was the reason I gained admission to multiple T10 schools in this incredibly competitive year. SOP was the white glove service that I needed and I’d recommend them to anyone as they begin their MBA journey!
