I wasn’t sure how to start my MBA process so I reached out to Kathryn for a consultation. She was very honest and direct about my profile which I really appreciated.
From start to finish, SOP was supportive, diligent, and genuinely invested in my success. Kathryn and Wilson put in a ton of effort reviewing my essay and pushing me to dig deeper to present the strongest version of my story.
The most challenging yet rewarding part of my application process was the career narrative part. Wendy pushed me to lay out my story in a way that made it easier to articulate my vision for why I wanted to pursue business school.
For the day to day work, I worked closely with Wilson and had a great time. He was incredibly responsive and patient as we brainstormed essay ideas and figured out ways to show my professional side as well as my personality. Kathryn, Wilson, and Pat were also very timely with their feedback and ensured that I was on track to hit deadlines.
When it came to interview prep, Wilson and I did mock interviews and I received constructive feedback on how to present my story and goals. I was able to explain why I wanted to pursue business school and walk through my responses confidently.
I’m truly grateful for all the support that I’ve received and recommend folks to reach out! The MBA application process can be challenging but it was nice to have people cheering for me and making sure that I was able to reach my goals.
