Experts’ Global has a very systematic process for Admissions Consulting. I enrolled with them for 5 schools help. When the process started, I was asked to fill the 2 detailed questionnaires and then the entire team helped me with everything- including Resume, recommendation letters, schools shortlisting, essay writing, application review, interview preparation etc. The questionnaires filled by me were the basis of the entire application process. My mentor did detail discussion with me on story boarding, school choices etc. The team was very responsive and reachable. They were always quick in answering my queries and providing valuable inputs. Once the applications were submitted, I started receiving interview invites. I was able to get interview calls from 4 schools. The mock interviews sessions with Experts’ team helped me and I felt pretty confident in my actual interviews. The result- 1 waitlist and 2 admits both with scholarships.
Experts’ Team has been extremely helpful in every stage of my application and I got MBA admits from some of the best business schools because of their help. I would like to thank them for their dedicated support.

Well it was one fine day after two years of giving CAT, scoring 97 and 98 percentile respectively, and still not getting any interview calls I realized that it does not seem possible to do an MBA from India.

By that time I had three years of work ex and I was like –now I can target universities outside for MBA (though I really didn’t have an idea why I was doing that). So I started calling all agencies who were in this business and that’s when I met Experts’ Global. Off the bat they were very professional in their approach.

So I spoke with them and they understood my profile, questioned me on why I want to pursue MBA and what options I would like to choose and finally gave me the green light to come aboard. I paid up for both GMAT prep and Application package, however even before I could start I got a ringer from XLRI that I was waitlisted for an MBA in HR. I discussed my case with them and they told me “Fair enough! You have a legitimate case and if you get admit in XLRI we will return the money”. This was the moment, THE MOMENT that I realized that I have made a good decision by choosing Experts’ Global.

Eventually I didn’t make it to XL and started off with GMAT prep and then Applications Process.

For Admissions Consulting, I had various round of discussion with my Mentor and all the discussions matured my understanding and allowed me to deeply introspect and identify the reasons for doing and MBA, what I stand to gain from MBA education and what career course I must choose. I filled my profiling questionnaire (it’s a 32-35 question long questionnaire that will make you deeply introspect your reasons for doing an MBA, draw out leadership stories etc and will serve as a base for your essays) and shared with my Mentor. One good thing about the whole mentoring process was that they never spoon fed me what I should write in my essays to get in a B-School. My profile is aligned well for a general management / operations role however I wanted to transition to HR. They could have easily told me that if I projected my profile a certain way I would easily be able to crack in a B School but they didn’t. Through the questionnaire and discussions they allowed me to realize and understand what my strengths are and how can I justify the choices that I am planning to make for myself. In the end I did create a compelling argument about why I want to do MBA in HR.

My schools were selected keeping in mind my profile, the choice of career option and that I wanted to target scholarship friendly schools. The risk was spread between 3 Dream, 7 Realistic and 2 Safety schools. Next comes the interviews – I ended up giving around 5 mocks with different trainers and received extensive feedback before I even sat down for my first interview.

THE RESULT

ADMITS WITH FULL SCHOLARSHIP – Wisconsin Madison, Purdue Krannert, Boston University

Admits with Partial Scholarship – Washington Olin, Rotman

Admits with No Scholarships –Marshall and ISB

Interviewed but turned the college down because decision was already made – Carroll, Foster, Emory

Rejected – Vanderbilt Owen, Pittsburg Katz

In the end I just want to tell you this – there is a difference between consulting someone to get in a B-School and mentoring someone through the entire process so that they gain that maturity, intellect and understanding. I believe I have established a relationship with Experts’ Global that goes well beyond giving tips of getting in B-School. Anyone can do that. But to grow someone so that they learn to find a path for themselves – that is what Experts Global is all about.

I had taken up EG's GMAT prep course in late 2017. They have a pretty good structured way of teaching things. The online mocks and prep material proved really handy. But it so happened I had exhausted 3 attempts and still was sitting with a 660 in hand. I had given up hope and decided to go ahead with applications. During the school shortlisting, Akanksha made it clear of my chances at certain schools and motivated me to have one final attempt. I took a leave of 1 month from my job and focused on it. Bingo there was 710 on my screen! That moment I realized the importance of support system and motivation. Fast tracking my applications for round 1 entries , EG team was superb in finishing documents well before deadlines. I had taken up 11 schools , ISB was my first choice and it was a stretch school per se for me. It was a dream come true and I was extremely happy when I got the ISB admit mail. I also got Interview invites from 6 other schools, but I didn't pursue them due to other commitments.
EG's team has been instrumental in my GMAT prep and also supported me like a rock all through the application process. The best part is their tailored and structured approach to everything, which makes life easy for a 9 to 5 person like me.
Overall I would say joining EG has proved to be one of my best decision till now and the 1 year association has been a fruitful journey! Will stay in touch with them and definitely recommend them as they are genuinely good people with good intentions who care for the student's future and not plain money making

Having crossed the 700+ barrier in GMAT and running short of time, I decided to check with some of my friends who had already gone through the admission process and are now pass outs from some of the elite B schools. Looking at my current situation and based on his personal experience with the Experts Global team, a friend of mine who is an ISB alum suggested me to stop wasting any more time and approaching the Experts Global team.

I decided to go by his suggestion and this turned out to be single best decision taken after having taken the GMAT exam. I soon approached them and my process was started immediately. I got the name of the mentors, detailed timeline and a detailed questionnaire to fill up which came super handy in all my upcoming college applications.

I had regular sessions with my mentor and I found the advise given by my mentor very useful specially on tackling questions such as 'Why MBA?' and 'What after MBA?'. Since I was targeting the Indian B Schools only, my deadlines were all soon approaching. Experts Global not only helped me thoroughly with my essays, they did so well before the deadlines, giving me enough time to complete the college applications.

After having met with disappointment during my first college interview, I immediately connected with my mentor Aakanksha and asked her if I was approaching the interview in the right way and if I should portray my profile differently. She reaffirmed me to stick to the original plan which really worked for me in my next interviews.

I would also like to acknowledge the support of Ms Aanchal Sharma throughout my interview process. She kept me giving some serious feedback and ways of improving, which helped me immensely during the interview. She did not shy away from sending me back to prepare thoroughly during our first interaction which made me take up interview preparation seriously. She kept following up with me and taking repeat mock interviews until I was upto the mark.

Overall I am deeply thankful to them as their professional guidance helped me crack one of my dream college in India- IIM Calcutta. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone :)

I am very pleased with the results of my association with Experts’ Global. I took up their MBA admission consulting services for eleven schools. Out of these I received admits (with scholarships) to three, Katz, Smith, and William & Mary.

Experts’ Global walked me through the entire admissions process, very effectively. I found their approach to be methodical and well-organized, it was also very informative. They provided me with a lot of video lectures that covered every part of MBA admissions, how to shortlist schools, how to analyze my profile, essay writing etc. These videos covered everything excellently, I learned a lot from these videos and I feel that I was able to make better choices, as a result.

I also learned a lot from how hands on my admission team was. They conducted the whole process, as a series of ‘milestones’ that we worked together on. They were always ready to answer my questions or deal with any additional requests I had, promptly and without issue. I only had to share all my information once, since the team members always made sure that everyone was up to speed.

Most of all, I was impressed with the excellent essays they wrote for me. They worked with me to understand my professional past, present, and what I hoped for the future and then used that to “tell my story”. Their essays really painted a good picture of me as a professional and potential MBA student. I think that is what made me stand out to the admission committee.

I also found Experts’ Global’s interview prep to be a lot of help. It familiarized me with the process and taught me exactly how to conduct myself and answer questions, to make the best impression.

I am very happy with how Experts’ Global handled my admissions process. They delivered on their promised results and were pleasant to work with.

I am very pleased with how Experts’ Global conducts their MBA admission consulting. My admission team was perfectly professional, courteous, and efficient. I never had any issue contacting Experts’ Global, whenever I had any requests or concerns. My team always made sure to get back to me as soon as possible and keep me in the loop, on the progress of my applications. I found the firm to have an in-depth knowledge of the particulars of many MBA programs and their admission processes. This was of great help to me, when I was shortlisting schools to apply to, as researching factors such as, convenient geography, scholarship availability, and budget would have been quite difficult on my own. What impressed me the most was the essay writing. My writing team had a very fine understanding of the qualities of an effective MBA application essay. They understood exactly how each essay question should be answered and exactly how to incorporate the strongest content from my profile, into the essays. Most importantly, the writing team understood the value of theme building. The worked with me to pinpoint the common themes that could bring my professional history, my desire for an MBA, and my future plans together, to form a narrative that would illustrate who I was, as a person and candidate. Such themes and narratives are crucial. Without a strong narrative, admission essays, especially statements of purpose, tend to read like extensions of the resume. The narrative is what makes an essay stand out from the crowd. Another thing that I really appreciated was that Experts’ Global actually offers guidance on all portions of the admissions process. They were, of course, more than capable of doing so, as well. It was clear that my admissions team had worked with MBA aspirants of all kinds and were had experience dealing with every type of challenge imaginable. In this area too, they made sure to keep me in the loop. Experts’ Global has a lot of resources for helping its applicants understand the admissions process. Primarily, they have a series of videos that that cover topics such as, essay writing, resume writing, securing letters of recommendation etc. This is quite a unique aspect of Experts’ Global’s consultancy, not many others put this much effort into making sure that their applicants are well-informed. With Experts’ Global’s help, I was able to put together excellent applications that got me interview calls from Oxford, Tepper, ISB, Cambridge, Darden, and IESE. Furthermore, Experts’ Global’s interview prep (which I will write about at length later) helped me secure admission to three of these schools, Cambridge, Darden and ISB. I am very happy to say that I will be studying at Cambridge and I owe a great deal of thanks to Experts’ Global, for this opportunity.

Experts Global team have been a mentor to me throughout my MBA journey.

First of all, before the enrollment process, they gave me good feedback on my application, highlighting my strengths and weakness and helping me with the school selection. After that, the enrollment process was very smooth and had a lot of flexibility based on the number of schools I had applied.

After the enrollment, they shared a set of videos to help me with the application process. The videos were very objective and helped me tackle the various stages of the application process.

This was followed by the brainstorming which was done by Ms Akanksha. I really liked the fact that she was very approachable and could answer queries from both a professional and personal perspective. She was very honest and helpful in her approach.

I worked on my Essays with Ms Ranita. Ranita is excellent with translating thoughts to words. I always felt that I needed a couple of iterations before I hit the sweet spot with my essays. Ranita encouraged this and always maintained that there should be nothing in the essays which I am not comfortable with. Again, I really liked her honest approach and transparent feedback.

I worked on my interviews with Aanchal. Aanchal helped me identify my weaknesses and went over multiple mocks with me to improve my skills.

Lastly, Priyanka was always there in case I was stuck and needed any help from the team. She is pro-active and responsive, which helped me multiple times in situations when I needed something urgent.

Overall, it was a great experience. I felt that we were working together as a team to achieve a common goal. My mentors always had my back and I could always count on them on advice.

The MBA journey is long and daunting. You have to select the schools, work on your essays, finish your applications and then finally crack the interview. During all stages, my mentors were there for me. They helped me secure admission to my dream school and even after my admission, they helped me with my personal queries, which I believe speaks volume about their work.

My advice to my fellow peers would be to trust the process, introspect and trust the experts :).

From experience, I can tell you that MBA applications are no joke. The entire process of applying to MBA programs is very complex, at every stage there are so many factors to consider. Even before you can start looking at the admission requirements, there are several intense steps. I was, frankly, overwhelmed and the more I learned about what type of applications I would need to put together, to get a seat at a prominent business school, the more lost I felt.
Thankfully, I was able to find an admissions consulting firm, as fine as Experts’ Global! The guidance I received at this firm, completely, changed how I looked at the admissions process. They managed to make everything crystal clear and guided me through the whole thing so well that I never had to worry about anything. Experts’ Global’s admission consultancy is end to end. That means that they cover the entire process, from start to finish. From what I have seen, it is not very common to find MBA admission consultants that offer this kind of coverage.
The admission team that I worked with was very knowledgeable, professional, and helpful. They had a great deal of information about MBA programs from all over the world, were always very fast in replying to my queries and were very accommodating of any additional requests I had. They also used a set of video lectures to explain how the whole process would work, before we really got started. This really helped me understand the admissions process and gain some confidence. I also had a very helpful conversation with one of my mentors that helped me to further understand and put my mind at ease.
The first big help that Experts’ Global gave me was in my profile analysis and school shortlisting. I had no idea how to judge my own profile and the countless MBAprograms, out there, but Experts’ Global was able to perfectly understand my background and career goals and help me pick out a set of schools that would be right for me. They also helped me understand how these schools should then be narrowed down, considering factors like geography, scholarships, etc. This step was, probably, what was overwhelming me the most. There were so many factors to consider and so many potential schools to apply to that I did not know how to start!One aspect of the team that was a real help here was the fact that they were very straightforward and honest with me.Once this first step was cleared the rest became much easier. I started out with a list of four schools to apply to and as my confidence grew, I increased that number to eight and then nine.
The other area in which Experts’ Global was a tremendous help was in writing the application material. They prepared an extremely crisp admission resume, for me, and their essay work was beyond excellent. I went into the process not really knowing how good MBA application essays are written and was actually a little surprised by what Experts’ Global told me is the proper approach. They told me that best essays are the ones that have a “story” element to them, not just facts. How my writing team approached this was to look for common themes in my background, my current MBA pursuit and my long and short career goals and use those to bring all three together into a sort of overarching narrative. The essays they wrote, using this narrative, were better than anything I could have written in ten years.
Beyond this, managing the applications themselves was very easy, using the milestone approach. Any doubts I had about the applications were answered well in time and I was able to finish the application, without the deadlines becoming a concern.
A third part of the process that Experts’ Global was very helpful with was interview prep. As I said earlier, they offer guidance on every part of the admission process, this includes the interviews. I took up three mock interviews and went through the interview prep videos that Experts’ Global provided, to prepare for my real ones at Questrom, Maryland Smith, Fisher, Carlson, Purdue, Sauder, and Krannert. This training was very helpful and by the time of my interview at Sauder, Questrom, and Smith I was completely confident that I would clear them and I did! I secured admits to four schools, all with scholarships; Carlson-USD 36,600 per year, Smith-95% scholarship, Purdue-USD 20,000 per year, and Sauder USD 17500 per year. I also got 2 other admits to Questrom and Schulich.
Without Experts’ Global, I would have been completely lost. I cannot see myself succeeding, as I did, without their help. I can’t express in words how much they helped me!

Confession #1: Not too many people have a sense of purpose in life and I was no different. An economics degree and three promotions later, I decided to take the ‘next logical step’. In the search of self-discovery, I deliberately applied to a lot of b-schools. I mean, a lot. Was it worth it? For me, it was. The Experts’ admission process forced me to reflect upon my past, including accomplishments and setbacks. Why an MBA? Why now? My career goal? What am I good at? All these questions helped me create a rock-solid platform, from where I could launch myself with more confidence.

Please note that the admission process is exhausting and expensive. You need to have a balance between your dream, practical and safe schools. Experts’ Global brilliantly tackled the challenge that was tripping me up, understanding which schools to apply to. They helped me select a list of 11 programs that would be best for furthering them, keeping in mind factors like budget, scholarship opportunities, post-MBA goals etc. Later, I added two more programs to this list. My mentor made sure that I had a good understanding of my profile’s strengths and weaknesses.

Confession #2: I do not have a score of 700 or above.

Having said that, my mentor encouraged me to dig deep into my profile and identify things that make me unique. A successful MBA candidate is more than his or her GMAT score. It’s the overall package that helps you get selected since one weak point can be compensated by other strong aspects of your profile. Experts’ helped me understand that, as they took me through the process. They knew exactly how to write essays with strong themes that could really convey my “story”, as a professional and an applicant. It really helped me gain a lot of confidence in my chances for admits. They divided the process into a series of milestones, some of which were my responsibility and some theirs. Again, I found these practices to be very good for maintaining maximum clarity.

Confession #3: Results matter.

With help from Experts’, I received interview calls from Ivey, Notre Dame, ISB, HKU, Imperial, Questrom, and Simon. Out of these I was waitlisted at ISB and received admits to Questrom, Simon (with 50% scholarship), and Notre Dame (with a $70K scholarship)

In conclusion, I would wholeheartedly recommend Experts’ Global for their MBA admission package. It’s a bargain when compared to other admission consultants. The team was really easy to keep in touch with, they responded to all of my queries promptly and made sure to share information amongst themselves so that everyone was updated regarding my status.

PS: Be ready to do the heavy lifting. Unless you have absolute clarity of your career / post-MBA goals, I would suggest to apply to more number of schools and get a clarity during the admission process (if you can shell out some more $$$). To avoid fatigue, the applications may be divided among different rounds of different schools.

The experts global team has been of great help to me throughout my application process. They gave me honest opinions and feedback regarding my score and my chances at a particular school which was exactly the need for the hour. Very easily approachable and showing flexibility and availability at odd hours even helped me fill out some small questions in between the applications that were not part of the general essays.
the essay quality was rich and crisp and I liked the fact that they were open to changing the content after a meaningful discussion over the pros and cons of it. They werent rigid about what they wrote but had proper reasons backing it all up.
Their greatest strength is the experience and the team that they have. As students we hear a lot of things during our prep about trends, the GMAT score requirement etc , but they know really well how a story and a profile can be best represented to the school.
