Product Personal MBA Coach Comprehensive School Packages
Consultant Nicole Shay
Working with Nicole and Scott was amazing. Not only I enjoyed the process of developing my application but also resulted with a state-of-the-art application with powerful essays that helped me get in the schools I wanted to. I would totally recommend Personal MBA Coach if you are looking to boost your application. Nicole and Scott managed to put in my shoes to understand my goals and take the path to tell my personal story. Their greatest strength it is with no doubts the personalized attention that they provide to you in order to feel that you are completely covered with the tools needed to write high-end essays. I was struggling between different consultants and what really made me decide Personal MBA Coach over the rest was their focus on candidate experience throughout the development of the applications.

Product Personal MBA Coach Comprehensive School Packages
Consultant Nicole Shay
As a STEM applicant with little to no insight into the business school application process, I knew I needed the guidance of admissions experts to optimize my chances of getting in. I came across Personal MBA Coach during my research on consultants, and I was impressed with the consistently positive reviews and the caliber of schools that their clients were getting accepted to.
I purchased the Comprehensive Package and worked with Scott and Nicole, both of whom were very responsive, honest and knowledgeable about all aspects of the application process. They, along with my editor, helped me craft my narrative such that my goals were clearly defined and my strengths and expertise were highlighted. The interview prep was also incredibly helpful as it prepared me for what to expect and how best to answer the questions. Throughout the entire process, they were able to tailor their guidance to recommend what would be best for me because they made an effort to get to know me and my story. I would also give extra stars if I could for how willing they were to make extra time for me last-minute and outside of business hours!
If you’re hesitating because of the price tag, I was in the same situation, but I am so glad I went for it. It is definitely an investment that will pay off in the long run! This was the first and only time I applied and I received multiple admission offers so I did not have to pay for another application cycle, and the scholarships I received more than compensated for how much I paid for Personal MBA Coach’s services. I would highly recommend Personal MBA Coach!
