When I decided to pursue my MBA in the United States, I didn’t know which universities to apply to not only get admission but also a decent scholarship, which was a priority for me. I found out about MBADream.in and I spoke with Rahul. Rahul’s clarity of thought and honest feedback made me lean towards mbadream.in and I decided to join MBADream.

I had average acads and an average GMAT score for an Indian applicant and I wasn’t sure about my chances of getting into a top school with good scholarship. MBADream helped me shortlist universities based on my profile and my requirements. The way they helped me showcase my profile in my essays changed the whole picture. The sessions with them helped me link my background with my future goals. Even after I wrote my essays they didn’t seem presentable. That’s where MBADream stepped in. The editing of my essays was truly amazing. I could never write such essays. The essays were very presentable and said my whole story in a very nice way. Rahul personally helps in the preparation of admission interviews. Tips I got from Rahul really helped me for my interview.

Today, I have 3 admits, 2 with full scholarships :-D :-D and one with 50% scholarship, all from top 35 schools. Apart from this MBADream also helps in networking, which is very important as an MBA student. An early start to networking is always a big plus and that’s where they help you in a big way. I am really thankful to MBADream.in for where I stand right now.

I would highly recommend that people here check out GyanOne . I found them to be outstanding when it came to advice for top schools. I worked with them on my fall applications (2013) and secured admits to Kellogg, Yale. They possess excellent industry knowledge and have a lot of experience with top schools.

When it comes to applying to top schools, I felt I just could not take a chance. I got in touch with GyanOne and right from the beginning felt that I had chosen well. Not only did GyanOne help me to get into top schools, but they even helped me to choose the right one from among them based on my criteria. I continue to be in touch with GyanOne and in fact their consultants are today more than advisors to me but indeed friends

Hi there, any idea which firms are the best in India, for GMAT Admission counselling. I found a few such as Jamboree and AppHelp, but not sure of there program. International programs such as Veritas and ClearAdmit are too expensive!

Thanks

Hi I am also searching for the same.Please try out the free consultation that all such consultants provide.You will get a fare idea.I tried Crack Verbal and must say I have never come across such a rude consultant.He was of the opinion that if you choose finance you must have done CFA or some certification, if you wanna do product management you should have some experience with managing people etc.I mean what the crap, I am a person with hardly 2 years of work ex and in a very reputed ad tech company.I have seen no tech leads or managers with just 2 years work ex, a tleast at my org.Moreover, if I am already doing such things and I dont need an upliftment in my career why would I do an MBA in the first place?Further, the consultant told me its better that I dont even try for the school that I was targeting.Would you expect as a consultant to demotivate you?Im

I would like to recommend EXPERTS GLOBAL if you are looking for an INDIA based admissions consultant.

My association with experts global began when i was scouting for a GMAT Mock test package. They have a Killer deal of 15 Full-length tests for INR2000.
There test series was a close emulation of the GMAC tests and my actual score at GMAT was in line with the test series.

With a good experience in the Test package, i went on to take up their admissions consulting service as well.
The team is very cooperative and have a sense of responsibility and accountability over your deadlines and needs which i found was missing with other consultants.
They even went out of the way to support my plans.

They provide you with an dedicated Mentor who are well qualified and take personal interest over your needs.
school shortlisting incorporates your goals, future aspirations and also your financial capacity which many miss out.
You are given exclusive hand holding throughout the application process with personal involvement in school shortlisting/ Essay preparation/Essay & Application reviews / mock interviews/ Mock Visa interviews/ finance options and VISA processing.

The team puts a lot of effort to understand you as a persona and your needs before helping you with quality essays.
The team is a specialist when it comes to Scholarship planning. I had applied to 6 universities with their help and landed an admit with 3 TOP universities with the HIGHEST SCHOLARSHIP in each school. Ex: Michigan State University - Broad had awarded me with a $47000 scholarship
McGill university - Canada with a $16000 scholorship. Results from the remaining schools are still awaited.

The team is also flexible and friendly and help you with minor details whenever needed. There were no hiccups even though i worked with the team remotely through mails and phone calls, as they were based in Noida and i am from chennai. they have a well established network and have placed a lot of students in US colleges which would help you in getting to the actual scenario there after your admission from a student's perspective which is an added bonus.

Overall the experience was Great. When you have a team that takes accountability of your success it makes you feel a lot more confident and changes your perspective about your decision to do an MBA. I would strongly recommend Experts Global for anyone looking for a dedicated & Professional admission consulting from India.

I dont know about GMAT but for just Admission consulting, I wouldnt recommend Jamboree. I have taken Jamboree and it was a complete waste of time and money. They do not provide any counselling. They just give you a list of schools based on your profile (which is actually all schools in 2nd and 3rd tier if you have a very good profile) and do not even help you with ways to improve your profile/essays.

Their essay writers are all editors at various publishing houses and are all part-time. They also run their own essay writing services so, overall, they make no attempt to spend time to understand and improve your profile. I dont mean improve -- they wont even tell you some of the things on your profile are worth high-lighting. I questioned them on the same, and they told all their essay writers have MBAs. But, when I asked my essay writer, she said she has a BA.

Dont even go for jamboree. My opinion, talk to current students and alumnis on forums. They are usually very helpful.

I would say the same. The writer I got was a decent one. But the counselor was horrible - completely disinterested and incapable

My vote would go to Gyanone in Delhi.

After evaluating a number of top consultants, I decided to work with Rishabh from Gyanone. My decision was inspired by the knowledge he demonstrated of my target schools and how he quickly helped identify some key strengths of my profile in our very first meeting. It also helped that unlike a few other very good consultants, Gyanone's pricing was not exorbitant, despite an impressive track record. Neither did Gyanone come across as pushy, in trying to get me to enroll with them (which was the case with another top consultant I was evaluating).

Rishabh makes great efforts to understand your profile and consequently helps bring out the aspects that make your candidature unique. I was very close to the application deadlines when I completed my GMAT, Rishabh helped me with school selection, carefully considering my profile and my post MBA goals, and put together a well laid out plan to meet each of my deadlines. While Rishabh is thoroughly professional, he has often gone beyond his call of duty to offer me valuable advice and suggestions on multiple fronts.
The best part about working with Rishabh was that he was always willing to accommodate your needs and requests, be it scheduling a late hour phone call or helping with some last minute tips for an application that I wasn't working with him in the first place.

His deep insights into each of the program allows him to map the candidate’s profile and strengths to what the school is looking for. It allows the candidate to formulate his best strategy for each application. What I learned from his inputs helped me in my other applications that I had worked on my own.

In the interview prep stage, Rishabh made a careful selection of questions to prepare me through mocks and provided detailed feedback. Thanks to this, I was prepared and confident, and most of my interviews went quite well. In the end, I secured multiple US Top 15 and Top 20 admits, all with sizeable scholarships.

I owe a huge part of my success to the guidance and mentoring I received from GyanOne. They're certainly a bang for the buck and Rishabh is definitely a great person to work with. I recommend Gyanone wholeheartedly.

Hi all,

This is my review of mbadream.in.

These guys are offering admission consultation at half the price of what others are. But do not trust them. They will help you for the first draft of the essay and once they have your money they won't even read your message or call you back.

They help only some handful of people and the rest of the people are cash cows for them. Do not get fooled.

Thanks!
