Trusted Partner Throughout B-School Process

Initially overwhelmed with the MBA process, I searched for an admissions consultant that could strengthen my candidacy at my top choices. Melissa was the only consultant that seemed genuinely interested in my story and understanding of my reasons to apply to b-school. For our intro call, she provided constructive feedback on how I could better highlight my accomplishments on my resume and thoroughly answered questions regarding the process. After that call, I was completely sold that Melissa was the partner for me.

Throughout the entire process (brainstorming, essay edits, testing strategy, and interview prep), Melissa was encouraging yet kept me accountable and organized; she’s straight with you (honest without being cut-throat) and open to new ideas/suggestions. Melissa is a story-telling wizard, helping me weave themes/past experiences into a compelling narrative and framing my weaknesses into strengths. She asked thought-provoking questions and challenged me to reflect on how I wished to convey myself to these schools. Through this, my final essays had nuance, authenticity, and personality!

Melissa is top-notch and absolutely instrumental in my success in getting admitted to Chicago Booth. Highly recommend her for professionalism, solid expertise, and trusted partnership throughout the admissions process.
