I signed up for a 1-school Junior Deluxe Package + Resume Review Service after reading the free resources (50 MBA essays that worked) by Admissionado. Besides the generous amount of sample essays, the insights/commentary into why each essay works were honest and quirky. I was quickly convinced that they were the MBA admission experts who can help me with my application.

It turned out to be the best investment ever, and I received admission to INSEAD (my top choice). Victoria, an INSEAD MBA alum herself, showed no-nonsense to kick things off: drilling on my background, professional experience and career goals to produce a strong why MBA, why INSEAD story. During the essays editing process, her feedback was spot-on, with detailed explanation on the what(s) and why(s) that were tailored for the school. She did an amazing job to highlight the significance of my professional work (As a Tech Consultant assuming multiple roles, I have a hard time telling others what I do, let alone summarizing them in few paragraphs) There was one essay that I could not produce the right content as suggested, but Victoria and the editing team had been patience and encouraging, and provided valuable tips and essay ideas for me to close the gap. Along the 1-month plus journey, I never felt daunting or uneasy, only feeling safe and assured that my essays were getting better after each edit.

I also found the interview prep service to be extremely helpful as the mock interview sessions set a clear expectation on the dynamism involved in an actual Q&A. As I was travelling the ring-road in Iceland that time, Victoria was very accommodating to adjust her time to my availability. Also sincere gratitude to Claudia, Admissionado's Director of Operations, who coordinated my engagement with Victoria. I really appreciate her pro-activeness to check with me my application status/progress.

The MBA application journey is stressful and no easy feat. If you are ready to put up a fight and do not settle for mediocrity for your essays/application, I would recommend to go for Admissionado, specifically Victoria to other applicants!
