Experts’ Global provides excellent MBA admissions consulting, which was a great help to me, throughout my entire admissions process. From school shortlisting to preparing for the interviews, Experts’ Global had somebody to help me with everything.

My admissions team at Experts’ Global was quite knowledgeable, about the various MBA programs, across the world. The team had a very keen understanding of which schools I would have the best chance with, given my profile, and which ones would be best for furthering my career goals. I initially went to Experts’ Global, intending to apply to eight schools but after they showed me just how wide the field was for me and just how fierce the competition would be, I chose to upgrade to 11 schools.

After the profile analysis and school shortlisting, my essay writing mentor had a brainstorming session, with me, to identify the strong thematic elements in my profile and work out how to compile my personal history, professional history and my career goals, into one narrative that would present a good picture of my candidature, to the admissions committee. This added a lot of dimension to my essays, making them seem more vibrant and alive, instead of just an extension of the resume.

The entire admissions process is handled very systematically, at Experts’ Global. The admissions mentors take it as a series of milestones. Part of the milestones are, of course, handled by the applicant and the rest, by the mentors. All of the milestones are plotted on a detailed planner. The admissions team that I worked with was always very prompt, making sure that each task was completed and the planner updated, well before the deadline. My team was also very clear in their communications; they made sure to get all the information that they needed from me, at every stage, in one go, and share in among all concerned parties, so that there was no need of repetitive communications.

Out of the 11 schools that I applied to, I received interview calls from Rice, Kelley, Olin, ISB, and Tepper. I was also waitlisted at Foster. Even before I had received these calls, however, I had begun working with one of Experts’ Global’s interview mentors, to prepare for my admissions interviews. Thanks to that preparation, I received four excellent admits from Kelly, Rice (USD 58,000 scholarship), Tepper (USD 1000 annual scholarship), and ISB. Out of these four, I chose to study at Tepper.

Experts’ Global was a great boon to me, in my MBA admissions and I would definitely go to them, if I had to do the process, over again.

Words cannot express my gratitude towards Experts’ Global. There is no way that I would have been able to secure the admits that I did, without their guidance. The MBA admission process is a lot more intensive and complex, than I had initially given it credit for. There is a great deal of nuance that is not entirely clear at the outset.

That is why I am very grateful that I found Experts’ Global. This firm is the most reliable, when it comes to MBA admissions, it is certainly the most comprehensive. Experts’ Global provides guidance for every part of the admissions process. That includes everything from the most basic step of profile analysis, tricky things like getting profile letters, highly nuanced tasks like essay writing and interview prep, and even any off-beat requirements that the schools might have.

Experts’ Global’s consultancy is not only wide ranging but also in-depth. The admissions team that I worked with had a very thorough understanding of how to go about applying to MBA programs. They also had a great wealth of information on the various MBA programs, across the world and which would suit which type of profile best, namely mine. They also took a very frank, realistic, and clear approach to analyzing my profile. These factors, combined, made them excellent at helping me shortlist schools. They made sure to keep in mind all relevant details, while doing so, preferred geography, career goals, scholarship opportunities, overall budget, and duration of the program. They also made sure to slot the schools into three distinct categories, dream, practical, and safe.

Experts’ Global’s general approach is very scientific and geared towards streamlining complicated processes and making them easy to understand. To that end, they break down the entire application process, into a series of milestones. These milestones were very neatly divided between me and the team, who were very good at keeping track of tasks and keeping deadlines. This plan allowed me to take the complicated process, one step at a time, which made sure that it did not get out of control.

They also did a lot to demystify the essay writing, for me. They very clearly explained to me what goes into a good MBA admission essay. Mainly, that the essay should carry a personal touch. They need to give the admissions committee a sense of who you are as a person, in addition to highlighting your professional accomplishments. My team brainstormed with me to identify the major themes of my background, present situation, and future goals, to form a compelling narrative. It is these narratives that provide real depth to an admissions essay and make sure that they stick out, to the committee.

In fact, Experts’ Global really put a lot of effort into making sure that I fully understood the admissions processes. They have a lot of resources for this, including a series of detailed video lectures.

They also have video lectures for their admission training, which I was also very impressed by. In fact, I will be writing a separate testimonial focusing on it.

With Experts’ Global’s help, I was able to secure interview calls from Tepper, HEC Paris, Questrom, IE Spain, Kelley, IIM A, and IIM C. Out of these I secured admission to IIM C, HEC Paris, and Kelley. At HEC Paris and Kelley I even received scholarships, 15, 000 Euros and full coverage, respectively. I eventually settled on Kelley.

If you are serious about MBA admissions, you would be hard pressed to find anyone who is more reliable.

I worked with Experts’ Global for my application to ISB, among a number of other schools, and let me tell you this, they really showed me that there is a lot more to B-school applications, than I realized. One can easily understand how to write a few essays that will present them favorably to an admissions committee but that is not all that the process is about. It is a chance to really understand your career, so far, and where to take it. In fact, this is necessary for a good, strong application.

This is where Experts’ Global really helped me. My mentors worked with me, tirelessly, to help me understand my own profile and determine where and when to apply, for the best shot at the application. In fact, they even helped me understand if pursuing an MBA was the right choice for me or not. This level of discussion is very much out of scope for most consulting firms but Experts’ Global goes not just an extra mile but an extra ten miles.

They have a very keen understanding of the nuances of various MBA programs, all over the world. Of course, since ISB is very popular among Indian MBA aspirants, they are particularly familiar with it. Experts’ Global understood the exact factors that the ISB admission committee would look for and helped me understand how to present my profile to them. They did this by using their thorough understanding of my profile to pick out certain strong themes that could be used to build “a story” to be conveyed, through my essays. The purpose of building this story was to make my essays more personal and to give the committee a stronger feel of who I was, as a candidate.

The “story” was also a big help, in my interviews, which Experts’ Global also provided me with a lot of training on. They have a really well thought out interview prep that involves a lot of mock interviews, all of which were tailored to fit my strengths and weaknesses and the viewpoints of the schools. This was especially true for ISB, as they place a lot of emphasis on the interviews. My mentor determined my strengths and weaknesses and then having me fill out an extensive questionnaire that included the most frequently asked interview questions.

The overall attitude of Experts’ Global is very refreshing, when compared to the rest of the MBA admissions field. I doubt that most other firms would have invested so much time and effort into helping me understand my profile and my way forward.

Thanks to Experts’ Global, I secured admission to ISB, Marshall, Olin, Rotman, Wisconsin Madison, Purdue, and Boston University. I eventually chose to attend Wisconsin, for a variety of reasons, in addition to the full scholarship that they offered me.
