Thoughtful, patient, dedicated - Rachel is an OUTSTANDING coach!

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

Rachel is incredibly attentive and thoughtful. From the get-go, she invested a ton of time to get to know me as a person, taking copious amount of notes each time. This was especially helpful when we brainstormed stories for each of my MBA essays, and she would bring up anecdotes that even I forgot about! Rachel also exhibited an incredible can-do attitude as she read and provided thoughtful commentary to each of the 26 drafts we went through for my main MBA essay. Rachel's publishing background was truly an asset as she helped me cut down words and improve the flow of my essays.

But, the most impactful part of our relationship was how she helped me clarify my long-term career vision. I actually made a job switch during the application process becasue I knew that the new job will bring me one step closer to my goals. I would not have had the courage to do this if it wasn't for Rachel's thoughtful guidance.

I am super excited to keep Rachel updated on all of my future endeavours, not just business school. She has had a HUGE part in my successes, and I cannot recommend her enough!

THANK YOU RACHEL!

4 years later... Success with GSB + HBS + SOM!!

I decided to apply to business school again 4 years later from working with Rachel and switching my career. With Rachel’s help, not only did I get into my dream school (GSB Stanford), but also Harvard and Yale! Rachel was the exact right balance of supportive and challenging – I so appreciated Rachel being honest when my essays and messaging were not landing, and pushing me think even deeper on why an experience impacted me. The business school introspection period is so hard! I so appreciate Rachel being by my side at every step of the process. Also, Rachel always responded promptly, sometimes reviewing drafts in less than 24 hours. During crunch time, I could always count on Rachel to answer my questions and review my essays quickly! When I hit submit on my applications, the best feeling was knowing I truly did put my best foot forward, and I had no regrets. I couldn’t have achieved this without Rachel!

I can’t believe I’m in a position now to make the decision on which incredible school to go to! Thank you Rachel!!
