Wharton, MIT admits with scholarships

Shaifali, in her comprehensive package, helped me prepare MBA applications end-to-end with her crucial expertise, leading to my acceptances at Wharton and MIT with partial scholarships. For someone with a demanding full-time job, and not that many MBA-friends to guide through this process, Shaifali's comprehensive package provided a well-required timeline, structure and shaping at every stage (essays, application, interviews).

She spent quite some time understanding my background, my life story, and brainstorming potential post-MBA goals. She provided resume templates, multiple iterations to get the language/impact right. Further, based on my chosen schools, she provided helpful structure to create personal brand values that would further guide the application. Coming to essays, she strategized and chose from various options and how to curate/place stories in which section for maximum impact. Followed by various iterations on overall structure, ensuring no missing gaps in the story and finally, wordsmithing. Similarly, she helped address red flags in my overall background by finding the right place to communicate to admission committees. When I got the interview invites, she happily did multiple mocks with me to ensure my stories were compelling and touched upon my brand values. And there's so much more she did which I haven't covered her, but at every minor or major detail, she was available to provide her expert advice, jumping on a call whenever necessary.

MBA applications are a long and taxing journey -- Shaifali as a mentor certainly helped me stay sane through this intense and long process. I would totally recommend her to anybody going through this process.
