How to pick a good consultant for MBA applications [#permalink] New post   11 Oct 2018, 08:19
Hey hi,
Just wanted to know about the MBA consultants from the list of consultants on GMAT club, I was going to finalize a consultant and realized that all the Reviews were positive and probably biased towards stating only the positive points about the consultants, so are the list of consultants been reviewed by GMAT Club as well.
Like is there any criteria that GMAT Cub has to add these consultants to your list cause obviously you'll haven't picked every consultant in the market.
So is it safe to say that this list of consultants on this site is probably better than a whole lot of others available in the market and will probably provide a good service cause they are part of GMAT Club recommendations.

I'm just a bit skeptic sorry so wanted to conduct a due diligence before finalizing the consultant :grin:

Thanking you

Regards

A very valid question.

Everyone is good, and hard working. You should speak with as many as 4 to 5 consultants and pick the one that you get along with. Do this and start with one within one week as you do not have enough time.

I can tell you that the best consultants won't take customers late in the game - it is a sign of poor prep and a higher risk of not doing a great job and potentially disappointing you and also potentially creating an unhappy customer. Nobody wants unhappy customers :(

Talk to 5-6 consultants to understand how they work, how they can help you and whether it would be a comfortable fit for you to work together with them.
