I am a fairly young candidate who was applying for the Executive MBA program. I had already submitted my application to NYU Stern as a back-up school before asking Dr. Shel for her service because NYU was not my top choice and I did not feel like splurge on it. Then I narrowed down my choices to Duke, MIT and Kellogg. As a big fan of MIT and Kellogg, I decided to ask Dr. Shel for her help.

We emailed each other initially and I was requesting a quote for both schools. The price was fair comparing to other services. Then we scheduled our initialy chat on the phone to go over what needed to be done. She then sent me a word document to fill out, which included questions from my childhood throughout college and professional life. It gave her an idea of who I am, my personality, my accomplishments academically and professionally, so she could give me advise on what needed to be include on my resume, essays, and interviews.

We first worked on our Kellogg application first and because there was no word limit, imagination could go wild. She was able to narrow the content down and provided me a guidance on what should be put on the first and what should be emphasized on the second essay. She then scheduled a call with me on discussing it. After the first draft was done, I sent it to her and she was able to get back to me fairly quick within a two days turn-over rate. And she would put comments on her thoughts on the content, what needed to be clarified, what needed to be removed, etc. After the first draft, I would add and edit, emailed her the second draft. Then she would help making it more concise and to tight it up with the essay question. The on the final draft, it would be more on the grammatical error, etc.

We would also schedule a 40min. interview session before my interview going over questions that she already had in her inventory. And i was also able to ask her questions that i am concner about.

On the second application, we would be able to utilize the essays from the first school which made the work much easier.

We worked together for close to two months. I went to Kellogg's interview two days after i submitted my application and within one week, I was told that i got admitted. And shortly after I was invited to go to MIT. The experience has been amazing. Kellogg is my top choice, so I am pretty happy about the result. Highly recommended!!!
