Working with Jessica was absolutely great. I would recommend her to anyone. I used her hourly consult services when pulling together my executive MBA applications to Wharton and CBS.

She is extremely responsive and efficient so you know you can always depend on her to give you prompt feedback on essays or hop on the phone to answer questions. She helped tremendously by pushing me to be more clear/concise in my essays and saved me a ton of time by distilling the application process down into what's most critical. This saved me a ton of time and stress!

Jessica was able to explain which points to emphasize most for a given school in a way I never would have known without her.

Jessica was also very constructive in how she used the consulting hours that I paid for. She always focused her efforts on what was most critical and would discuss with me how best to use the time before she went to work. I never felt time was being wasted. She was very helpful in helping me determine what package would make the most sense for me from a financial and results perspective before I committed to buying anything.

I was accepted to both schools that I applied to and know others who have had similar results with Jessica.

Krista is simply fantastic.
After obtaining my GMAT score, I have decided to apply to MBA business schools, but I do not have any experience, and the only advice I can get is from some agents introduced to me by my parents. That has been neither rewarding nor enriching and is very inefficient.
I got into a panic, and after reading through reviews, I have decided on MBAmissions. Krista is the one I chatted with initially, and she was the one who has been with me throughout this long and arduous process from the beginning to the end.
Krista has been very effective in pinpointing the next step of action. She has been very experienced and organized in every step taken to ensure that my time has been used effectively. With so little time at hand, not a single second has been wasted without her giving me valuable feedback on my short answer questions or my essay drafts. As a person who values effectiveness and efficiency, I think Krista is one of the best I have ever encountered, and working with her is seamless.
Another thing which I think that Krista is a valuable existence for all those seeking assistance on MBA application is how helpful and resourceful Krista is. It is very easy to get confused with MBA applications in essay writing, short answers writing, the GMAT (if you need to retake it), networking, and talking to the admission staff. And Krista is there for anyone serious about their MBA applications. How do you approach the alumni and schedule meetings with MBA admission staff, you ask it, and you will be answered. Thus, I would like to offer a word of advice for anyone who wants to apply for their MBA with Krista, never be afraid to ask questions regarding your MBA applications; in truth, you are helping yourself by doing so. And from my experience, if you did, she would help you.
Not only did Krista support me in terms of her professional expertise, which is one of the most refined, but she also supported me emotionally. After being waitlisted by other MBA schools, I was disappointed and disheartened, but I felt much better after confiding with her. She has been optimistic, and I was encouraged by her kind comments. She has this phrase, “it is never over until it is over” sometimes, waiting for a decision can take you into an emotional turmoil which makes the experience not so exciting. Still, Krista certainly makes my experience more light-hearted.
I am grateful to have Krista to help me with my MBA application. However, I am even more grateful to have met her and to know them as a professional and a friend. I hope she stays healthy, and I hope anyone who wishes to engage Krista to help with their MBA application has the best and brightest future.

I applied in Round 2 in fall 2022 for the Class of 2024 and bought MBA MIssion's 5-school package. I was admitted into my top choice school, Wharton and accepted their offer of attendance.

I did my free consulting session with Debbie Choy, and knew immediately that she would be a great fit as my consultant. I told her on the spot that I wanted to sign up with her. However, at the time, I hadn't taken my GMAT yet. Debbie encouraged me to wait until I took the GMAT before paying for the consulting package because it is non-refundable. Debbie even offered to hold my spot with her until after I took the GMAT. That action showed me that Debbie (and MBA Mission) really care about what is best for me, and not just collecting my money. I ended up signing up immediately anyways because I was tight on time before deadlines, but that action was very meaningful to me.

Debbie really took the time to understand who I was and what makes me a strong candidate. Many times throughout the process, I asked her if specific topics would be suitable for essays or short answers. My concern was, maybe these topics were too common or "not what the school is looking for". Debbie always encouraged me to be myself while giving me tips on what parts of my story I could highlight to strengthen my application (while still being authentic)!

With her many years of experience, Debbie is a fantastic and knowledgable consultant. I highly recommend her!

After reading reviews online and hearing from peers, I decided to use Jessica for a multi-school package and was blown away with the overall process and results.

Beyond her strategic thinking, industry expertise, and phenomenal writing skills, I was most impressed by Jessica's working style and work ethic. I come from a client services industry and was quite taken back by how incredibly efficient and productive Jessica was (e.g., responding to emails, turning around revisions, hoping on the phone to provide feedback, etc.).

The other thing that I really appreciated about Jessica was her candor. She is very direct with the feedback and recommendations she provides. There were sometimes when she outright told me she disagreed with my ideas--that may sound harsh, but that was exactly the type of partnership I was hoping for. I wanted her to push and challenge me. She did not disappoint.

Jessica was an outstanding thought-partner on MBA applications. I candidly don't think I would've had my success without her. My only regret is not signing up for her sooner--she fills up quick!

I have researched for nearly all the consulting services providers online and shortlisted three of them. After the in-depth calls with each, I chose Debbie to be my consultant and signed a 5-school package with her.

She is very responsive, super knowledgeable, and have guided me through every step of the applications. In the beginning, I have not decided which schools to apply, so we began with discussing the school selections. Debbie understood my background and my desired career path so well, and thanks to that, I get admitted to the B-school (and it’s one of the M7!) that she recommended but I did not plan to apply in the first place.

Not only the fact that I get admitted with a scholarship, but also that after my interactions with the alumni and current students, I found that I love this school the most, and it actually fits in me the best (the culture, career goal and strength, etc.)

I would say the timeline for my applications is quite tight – I only started in end of September while super busy with work. Debbie helped manage the timeline so I did not get too rush when the deadline for R2 is near. Instead, I managed to have time to apply for two more schools.

All in all, the journey with Debbie is super fun, no stress, but very productive. Emotionally, Debbie also eased my anxiety a lot. I emailed her every question I have (even very tiny ones), and she would respond with patience. I am really grateful!

Harshad was instrumental in helping me get into the MBA programme of my dreams! His constant support, guidance and positive attitude played a pivotal role in achieving my goals. The MBA application process is an extremely strenuous one - Harshad's positivity and humour really helped alleviate my stress.

Harshad was always very organised, timely and meticulous in his editing and helped bring my story to life in my essays. I was applying alongside my twin sister and we both clicked with Harshad and decided to work with him. He counselled us both but always made sure our individuality showed through our stories and essays. He helped us both get into our dream school!

Overall, I just want to thank Harshad for all his help and support. He was a true mentor and guide during the application process. I highly recommend him to anyone about to take on this MBA admissions journey.

I got in touch with jessica and she was one of the best mba consultants I spoke to (and I spoke to plenty). The thing that was so impressive about working with her is that in the first call you'll have with her, instead of selling you how great their services are, or how many students they helped get into ivy league, she focused the conversation entirely about you. Who are you, what can I help you, why do you want to do this and repeat back what you are saying and suddenly you gain a deeper level of clarity. jessica is one of those people that will get straight to the point and bring you from where you are to where you need to be. Clarity is power and jessica certainly brings that to the table.

I was impressed with her approach even from the first call. I worked with jessica on my application and she was quick to give me the right direction to pursue and prevent me from going down irrelevant rabbit holes. 5 star rating and i wish i could have given more.

Michael is a miracle worker. I scored a 640 on my gmat (45 quant/34 verbal) which is not great, did not get amazing grades in college, and somehow Michael was able to help show admissions committee how valuable of a candidate I was. He gave me confidence to present my story and the accomplishments I was able to achieve in a very clear and impactful way. He went out of his way to make sure that I was getting the best possible consulting I needed to get into the MBA programs I wanted. After all of our hard work we were able to get into 4 schools including KELLOGG. I truly believe that I deserved to get into these programs and I am as certain that this would not have been possible without Michael Guttman. He truly is the BEST ADVISOR.

Melissa was an excellent resource throughout the MBA admissions process. She provided thoughtful, useful insights on my essays that allowed me to express myself in the best way possible. Her feedback was always clear and concise, and she was not afraid to provide constructive criticism when needed.

She built an effective and fun working relationship with me, and was quick to turnaround any documentation I sent to her for review. Melissa is everything one could hope for from an admissions consultant and I am grateful for to have worked with her. I got into all of the schools I applied to and would highly recommend Melissa to anyone applying for a MBA.

Kate did stellar job helping with my applications. From the beginning, I knew I was in good hands with her and that she would give me the best chance to get into my target schools. Kate's essay edits were incredible; she always had logical and impactful suggestions.

I'm also so thankful Kate helped through EVERY step of the process: essays, resumes, interviews, recommendations, post-interview reflections, waitlist updates, etc. Admissions consultants aren't cheap, but the value of working with Kate far exceeded the cost.

Ultimately, the proof is in the pudding. Kate helped me get acceptances to 2 of the 3 schools I applied to (Kellogg and Booth), with a waitlist spot (final decision still to come) at another (HBS). I couldn't be more thankful to have worked with Kate and would recommend her highly to anyone!
