A+ Experience

My initial plan was to apply to B-School without an MBA consultant. However, when I started to work through my applications, I soon realized how difficult the process was going to be. It’s not an easy task to pack several years of academic, personal and professional activities/accomplishments into a single application. It was at this juncture that a friend recommended that I speak with Alex Leventhal (Prep MBA), and I’m so happy that they did.

Alex was incredible to work with from start to finish. At our initial introductory meeting, he put me at ease with his general B-School knowledge and his organized approach to tackling the application process. Before diving into the applications, Alex and I spoke on several occasions (in-person and on the phone) about my background and career goals. This was really a series of brainstorming sessions that made completing my applications and writing my essays much easier. Thereafter, we took each task step-by-step, perfecting one deliverable before moving on to the next. In doing so, the process was much more manageable and much to my surprise, stress free. I found his comments and guidance to be additive, and never felt like he was commenting simply to justify a paycheck. By the time my applications were complete they told a cohesive story, effectively highlighting and connecting different experiences throughout my life and making a strong case for why an MBA would help me achieve my career goals. The completed application was absolutely unique to me, but Alex assisted me in packaging myself in the best way possible.

Alex’s personalized one-on-one service was superb, and he always made an effort to accommodate my hectic work and travel schedule. From day one, I worked with Alex only-- he does not outsource to others. He made himself available to me whenever I needed to check-in. For most of the application process, I was travelling abroad and Alex went above and beyond to accommodate the difference in time zones.

I would strongly recommend Alex to anyone applying to B-School.
