I had a very positive experience with mbaMission, and specifically with the consultant Nisha Trivedi. She was amazing, worth every penny. Nisha helped guide me through the application and interview process for my dream school, Columbia Busines School (J-Term), and with her help, I was admitted into, and accepted a class spot in J-Term Class of '25. What I liked most about Nisha is through every single thing we worked on together, she went above and beyond what was required/expected, often working on weekends, holidays and odd hours to meet the self-imposed deadline I wanted to meet for my app. She also has a strong background in communications, and really did a phenomenal job in thinking about how best to position my story to show CBS AdCom the best experiences & characteristics I had to offer. I am SO glad I decided to work with Nisha, and I know I wouldn't have gotten into business school without her; I'd 100% recommend working with this consultant.

mbaMissioin, as a company, was excellent, and their OnTrack modules had a tremendous amount of useful precedents (short answer responses, resume templates, interview guides, etc.) hand-tailored to each school. I was impressed with how tech-forward they were.

Nisha instantly understood exactly what my needs were. I am definitely not a writer and she helped me craft my life's journey. She asked the right questions to help me think about my essay from different angles. I also chatted with her just before my interview and she encouraged me to be my authentic self and it worked. To be honest, I was feeling a little under confident and I really wanted to chat with someone who understood the industry and could give me their honest opinion about my candidacy. Thank you, Nisha, for being a MBA consultant + a therapist!

I had the privilege of working with Nisha on two applications, and was admitted to both programs with funding support. Initially, I thought I had a fairly good sense of the programs I was interested in and what I wanted out of them. My plan was to review the available guides and apply on my own. Given the high cost of MBA programs (both financial and commitment!), I decided working with a consultant would be a small investment to ensure I was targeting the best fit programs and putting forth my best application. I am so glad I did and found Nisha! She was very approachable, responsive, and offered great questions and feedback throughout the whole process. She was also a wonderful thought partner on several key decisions - offering considerations that I had not thought of so I could be sure I was making the best possible decision in short turnaround times. Besides the applications, I am confident the insights, self-discoveries, and articulation skills I gained from working with Nisha will help me in school and beyond as well! I will wholeheartedly work with Nisha again if I had the chance.

Prior to hiring Nisha, I had failed to get into any of the five schools I applied to in round one. I was referred to Nisha by a friend and she very quickly helped me redo my essays and general narrative, quickly pointing out where there was significant room or improvement.

I’m happy to say in round two, I had much greater success. I secured offers from both Chicago Booth and Columbia Business School. I’m confident that I would not have been successful had I not been willing to pivot and bring in Nisha. She helped out quickly and had great feedback.

Nisha helped me during my Round 1 applications to three M7 schools - I was ultimately accepted to all three, including a scholarship offer from one school!

Nisha was incredibly efficient and usually provided essay comments within a day. She was great at teasing out specific aspects of the narrative to ensure results and implications were clearly highlighted. During interview prep, she helped me identify areas of my profile that were not explicitly described in my written application to give more color to my personality.

The application process was intense and nerve-racking, but I am so grateful that Nisha always provided candid feedback, a fresh perspective, and incredible support. Still in disbelief that I'm actually going to b-school, thank you Nisha!

I had a very positive experience working with Nisha. I chose the hourly services since I only wanted to apply to one school and, yes, I got in! She was very speedy in her responses and I was able to get through resume and essay edits in a couple billable hours. She had a lot of great feedback that 10x my initial drafts. I don't think things would have gone as successfully if I had not hired Nisha to help with the admission process. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is serious about applying to a school, especially if you just need hourly consulting.

I had the privilege of working with Nisha during crunch time of my round 1 applications to three M7 business schools. Nisha was not just a consultant; she was a mentor and guide throughout the process. Her professionalism, promptness, and friendly approach made the stressful period of applications much more manageable.

Her feedback on my resume and essays was detailed and insightful, significantly enhancing the quality of my application. Nisha’s ability to provide constructive criticism while highlighting my strengths was extremely helpful. She understood the intricacies of each school’s application process and tailored her advice accordingly.

What truly set Nisha apart was her efficient use of time. Despite the time constraints, she ensured that every piece of feedback was actionable and impactful, making the most of the consulting hours I had purchased. Her dedication to my success was evident in her willingness to go the extra mile, accommodating my schedule and responding swiftly to my queries.

Thanks to Nisha’s guidance, I was admitted to CBS’ class of 2026. Her expertise and personalized approach were invaluable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to make their MBA application stand out. Nisha’s support is not just an investment in your application but in your future.

I unreservedly recommend working with Nisha on any aspect of your application. I began the MBA application process late and was faced with a condensed timeline to work through the GMAT and subsequent application materials. Nisha provided timely and invaluable input on all aspects of my candidacy from my resume to my essays and extra-curriculars. She was always responsive and available to jump on a zoom call to answer any pressing questions as the submission deadlines approached.
We continued to work together leading up to the interview process. Nisha conducted a great mock interview session which helped immensely in my preparation for conversations with admission committees. She not only presented the opportunity to practice speaking to my application and experience, but also provided critiques on how to better answer questions to convey the strengths I possessed as a candidate.
I am happy to say that I have been offered admission to my top choice in M7 school, and it would not have been possible without Nisha’s continued help and support. If you are in the market for a consultant who will get to know you as a candidate and work with you through each step of your application, Nisha is the perfect fit.
