If you can get him, get him.

There are mountains. MOUNTAINS of advice on how to game B School applications. This isn’t Ben. Ben will have you climb a different mountain: distill what is uniquely you. The benefit of that exercise extends far beyond any application. He’ll then help you communicate yourself, powerfully. He’s qualified because he’s one of the most effective communicators I’ve met. All in all, I expected my Leland experience to be transactional, but necessary. I didn’t expect my coach to be intensely interested in me, I didn’t expect to know myself better, and I didn’t expect to come away from it all with a permanent shot of confidence. Boy was I surprised. So if any of that sounds interesting and you want to put together a potent, genuine application with somebody that has your back at every step, Ben is your guy.

Best all around coach EVER!!!! 100000/10

From my first meeting with Geri, she was so kind, approachable, knowledgeable, and supportive. Geri really took the time to listen to what I wanted out of my deferred MBA process, and she set up a clear path for me to succeed in my applications. With Geri's help, I was able to craft compelling essays that felt genuine and thoughtful, which I wouldn't have been able to do alone. Geri was beyond patient for the five months we worked together, and she knows so much about every M7 school. Geri not only helped me get into one of my top choice schools, but she helped me learn so many valuable lessons about myself. Geri turned an incredibly intimidating, arduous process into a navigable, stress-free endeavor. I would recommend Geri every single time for anyone!!!

The best choice you’ll make

Brennen is sharp and incredibly talented in his craft of storytelling, with a wealth of experience and knowledge in MBA applications and interviews. Working with Brennen gave me clarity on my story and confidence in my voice, to create a crisp and convincing application. It is rare to find people who are deeply invested in your success and your story, and Brennen is truly one such rare gem. Thanks to him, I secured admission to deferred MBA programs at HBS and Sloan and recommend him to the highest degree!

Amazing experience, highly recommend!

I worked with Yvette from February on MBA applications and couldn't recommend her more. What stood out to me about her was: - her ability to really get a grasp of my personal story and guide me through a structured reflective process where I eventually arrived at conclusions about my motivations and qualities that I could infuse into my essays - no BS attitude. She would push back on some ideas during the revision process which ultimately elevated my writing. - constant support and flexibility. i was in school while applying to these programs, and often would need to add new sessions on short-notice, and i found her to be accommodating. she was also a great source of confidence during times where i doubted that my profile would be competitive for the schools i was applying to. her interview prep made me feel well-prepared as it simulated an almost exact replica of what i would experience in the actual interviews. overall, I couldn't recommend her more!

If you're in doubt that you'll get into a top program, Andy's your best shot.

Andy P was an incredible MBA coach who played a huge role in helping me get into Wharton through the Moelis Advance Access Program. He took the time to understand my background and helped me shape a strong, authentic story. One thing I appreciated most was that he was brutally honest about what he thought of my profile and chances. It was not always easy to hear, but it pushed me to improve and made a big difference in the long run. The unlimited revisions and talking time you pay for is 100 percent worth it. I needed the help and attention to detail across every part of my profile, and Andy delivered. His clear and focused feedback gave me the confidence I needed throughout the entire process.

Highly Recommend Machmud!!

Machmud was wonderful in helping me prep for interviews and strategies for applying to big law positions. He was great at giving me feedback and helping me emphasize my strengths, and was always incredibly responsive + helpful. He encouraged me to stay positive with my goals and I probably wouldn't have been so confident in both the process and interviews otherwise, which led me to get multiple offers even as a KJD and sign at a firm I'm very excited about! His knowledge and attitude were incredibly helpful in the process and will definitely make an impact on your interviewing and confidence.

BEST MBA Coach!!

Jenni played an instrumental role in helping me achieve my goal of gaining admission to Columbia Business School. She was truly exceptional, accommodating my tight timeline with timely and efficient support throughout the entire process. Her greatest strength lies in her ability to help you craft essays that authentically and compellingly showcase every facet of your story. Jenni’s attention to detail is unmatched; she ensures that every element of your application is refined and impactful. She also supported me through the interview process, preparing me for every possible question with thorough mock interviews. She connected me with tutors to help improve my test scores; she is truly a wealth of knowledge and has numerous connections. More than just a coach, she was my biggest advocate, offering unwavering support and encouragement from start to finish. I’m incredibly grateful for Jenni’s guidance and expertise. I couldn’t have done it without her!

Deferred MBA Admit to GSB, HBS, Wharton, CBS !!! Impossible without Vica’s help

It’s difficult to even put into words what working with Victoria meant to me! I started the process with Victoria after stumbling on her page to see a shared background. Not expecting anything crazy, my partnership with Victoria genuinely changed my life. She was the coach, mentor, and sense of reason I needed throughout the entire process. Even the nudge when I didn’t want to work on my essays or was slacking off… Vica was alongside me through every phase—resume review, narrowing the schools I was applying to, essay edits, and interview prep. There’s no one else I could’ve imagined doing this process with. If there’s any doubt about whether she should be your coach, I hope this review convinces you. A coach is someone who genuinely cares about making a difference in someone’s life. Victoria is that coach.
