Product ApplicantLab On-Demand Admissions Guidance Tool
Consultant Maria Wich-Vila
I was skeptical of online admission consulting services because I didn't know how they could customize for my case and was concerned about the amount and details of guidance they could offer (number of schools, school selection, resume, essay, interview, etc.). Literally, I was CLUELESS about MBA applications except for the GMAT. Also, I knew I couldn't afford a traditional consultant who would charge.
*BUT* Maria and Applicant Lab team broke all those barriers and assumptions. With Applicant Lab:
1/ I could select as many schools as I want. Applicant Lab doesn't charge per school but ~$300 for all schools and still offers end-to-end services. (I mean EVERYTHING!).
2/ Maria provides DETAILED guidance customized for each school. She analyzes the essay prompts and compares them with previous versions to figure out AdCom's intention behind the essays. She also provides sample writing to inspire you. You can't go wrong with her advice. I really love the sample essay she wrote for Haas, and always take it as a standard for my essays.
3/ Maria saves you tons of time and effort to be spent on school research (school's phylosophies/ academic offerings/ clubs etc.) by consolidating the URLs to each component in one page. Just click the link and you'll get to where you need to be. In case you're too busy to watch the videos, you can also read a summary, which is super helpful).
4/ Bonus points: Her enthusiasm, positivity, and effective communication make it fun to watch the videos, and they inadvertently became a source of stress alleviation for me. I was super stressed out but I knew I could turn to Maria's advice when I needed it.
Even if they charged 10x more, it's still worth it. I am absolutely in love with the Applicant Lab and cannot recommend it enough to my friends who are considering pursuing an MBA. *Trust me! Maria is the consultant of consultants*
All in all, VERY CHEAP PRICE FOR THE BEST ADVICE!!
