Life Changing Experience with Gavriella (MBA 3 School Application Package)

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

Partnering with Gavriella altered the course of my life; if you are looking for application partnership, business school preparation and intangibles that will develop you as a person, please read below.

I partnered with Gavriella on a 3 school package through mbaMission.

We applied to (and I got into):
1. Northwestern University - Kellogg School of Management
2. University of Chicago - Booth School of Business
3. I choose not to apply after getting into Kellogg and Booth.

Gavriella is simply amazing. I cannot put into words the way she impacted my life, changed my life and was an invaluable aspect to this application process. Look no further for application partnership.

These applications are extremely stringent and encompass a recap of your whole life story that you then have to turn into an application that appeals and speaks to admissions teams. Admissions teams get hundreds if not thousands of applications so how do you stand out, how do you get noticed? In the two months that we worked together, Gavriella was incredibly thorough, we communicated almost daily and she taught me so much about myself in this process. Honestly estimating, there were at least 300 valuable pieces to this application that Gavriella provided.

When writing your story in these applications, an external source is very helpful. Gavriella went FAR beyond that. She read the 20 page narrative I wrote, picked out the big ideas and small details and we brought together an incredible application.
This was applied to my resume reworking, 2+ essays, recommendation essays, short answer questions, optional essays, application interviews and everywhere else in this application.

After we completed the two STRONG applications, Gavriella's assistance through the interview process was invaluable. In these interviews, you have a very short window to convey your life story, what's important to you, what you like about the specific schools, how you will make an impact, what your presence at the school will be, how you've thought about this next step (grad school), and so, so much more. Without her help, my interviews would have been completely different, completely.

She took my "weaker points" and turned them into strengths, making my application very strong and well-rounded.

What truly impressed me is through this process with Gavriella, she taught me so much about myself. Can you list your short term and long term goals in 20 seconds, with complete clarity, using the right verbiage and conveying exactly what you feel to an admissions team? I couldn't before, but that is one of hundreds of examples of Gavriella's help. She brings so much information to the table that it felt like I was already in business school. She familiarized me with the business school "language" and terminology. She prepared me for business school more than anyone has (and trust me, I have incredible resources by my side).

You're not going to be able to find these things in books, in articles or by reading about the application; you just can't. You could read a thousand pages about how to complete a business school application and it wouldn't touch the value that Gavriella brought to my process, wouldn't even get close, at all.

What you're going to get from Gavriella is not just the best possible chance for success, but you're going to get things out of working with her that will last you a lifetime. Gavriella is brilliant and knows this space better than anyone and her expertise is astounding, she knows everything and I mean everything. In addition to expertise, Gavriella brings a passion and care for your application that will change your life, as it did mine. It is very rare to find someone who has incredibly refined excellence in both expertise AND passion/EQ/emotional intelligence and awareness.

I will say it again, Gavriella changed my life. If you are looking for an application partner, please, please do not look any further. Please, please sign up with her immediately and I promise that you will have made the BEST decision.

My biggest dream for the past three years came true, I am pursuing my MBA at Northwestern University - Kellogg School of Management and I could not have done it without Gavriella.
