I had an excellent experience working with Lara, Kathryn, and the rest
of the Square One team. From our very first interaction they were very honest with me about my strengths, weaknesses, and expected outcomes.I was not interested in working with a team who would coddle me, and the Square One team certainly challenged me. I am highly confident that working with their team improved the quality of my applications significantly. I started out working with Square One for only my top 2schools, but ultimately chose to work with them for the remainder of my applications as well, due to how helpful they were. Without their help I’m not sure if I would have received an acceptance to my dream school, and I am positive I would not have received the large scholarship I was awarded. Would highly recommend working with the Square One team, and specifically Lara, to anyone working on MBA applications.
