After reviewing my profile with ~10 consultants, I decided to work with Square one prep for my application process. Kathryn was the only one who went an extra mile and extended the initial consultation call by 30 mins (original call was 30 mins). It showed that she truly cared about me and tried to understand my story and my goals and shared her insights and experience.
I had expert opinion throughout my application process. I spoke to three senior advisors before I decided to partner with Alexandro, one of my good decisions. He was very responsive and was able to jump on a call within a few hours’ notice. His ability to articulate and curate your thoughts on paper is commendable!
There were times when I was tight on deadlines, but Ale made sure that I stayed on top of my them and put my best foot forward. I applied to four schools and received an offer at one (with scholarship). I’m glad I ran into Square One and would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a personalized experience in crafting an MBA application.
