Hi, everyone, we request all the admits to briefly share their profile details like test scores, GPA, location, scholarship, goals etc in our new decision tracker at the following link. You can add your details anonymously. https://gmatclub.com/forum/decision-tra ... ister.html

It would be a great resource for prospective applicants to see all the admit profiles and get an idea about what type of profiles can get into Harvard. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you.

You can use our decision tracker and apply filters decision-tracker/summary.html?school=1&status=4&country=-1&score=0&gpa=0&program=0&industry=0&we=0&intake_year=0

This will work great if the admits can fill in the decision tracker :)

Hence I request all the admits to add their decision in the decision tracker at the following link

We have the reviews. That’s probably too many of them if anything 😂

https://gmatclub.com/reviews/admissions_consultants/

I would suggest looking at the consultant you’ll be working with and considering a few requirements:

1. Do you want them to be your cheerleader who can tell you that you can achieve anything or would you like to go with somebody more pragmatic perhaps tell you it’s going to be really hard. Another consultant may tell you that you got it but that doesn’t really mean that you got it or that the consultant can get you in that’s just their opinion… or an attempt to get a sale.

2. Is the consultant going to be responsive and on time. The biggest complaint I’m hearing from people is that consultants get too busy and they don’t respond within the designated period of time. I suggest discussing this head on with your consultant and understanding what kind of leverage or guarantee or comfort they can offer you in case they get over run it over taxed.

3. Tune extent you get what you pay for. Admissions consulting is very very very expensive. The reason it’s so expensive is because consultants are highly paid professionals who have to spend time. If you negotiate a better deal if somebody cut you a better deal, it doesn’t always mean it’s a better deal, it may mean you just get less of their time.

4. Don’t get tempted or over value guarantees. If your consultant tells you if you don’t get in this year they’ll get you in next year for free or that they guarantee you an interview in round one, that’s actually not as valuable as you may think… important because many programs will guarantee an interview if you apply in round one 😇

5. Make sure you have a conversation with the consultant you’ll be working with before your sign up. Some of the larger firms have an advantage of having a big talent pool to draw from but that also sometimes means you don’t get to talk with your consultant who will be assigned to you until after you pay and then you may realize you don’t really get along.

6. Some very high-end consultants, individuals that specialize in Harvard will cherry pick their clients. They will basically pick the people who would get in even on their own and then put in minimal effort get them in. So if you check in with a certain overhyped consultant and they tell you that you have no chance, this may mean they just don’t want to put in the work. My recommendation is to get multiple opinions and pick a hard-working consultant as opposed to well marketed one.

Good luck!
