4 Admits + Scholarship!

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by membership [?]

I worked with Karla at SBC and had a top notch experience. I had done nothing on my applications when I hired SBC. They came highly recommended from a friend and I felt very comfortable with Karla's bio and my chat with the SBC team, so I decided to take a leap of faith and sign up. What I liked about Karla is that she knew exactly what she was doing and she took control and led me through step by step. She was no BS - very direct feedback but she also was fun to work with and I looked forward to our exchanges. She shared my successes and challenges and I definitely felt that I had a partner throughout - a much wiser, more seasoned partner! She was extremely responsive and would even check in with me if I was falling behind what she felt to be a good pace. There were times that I felt frustrated and burnt out (I applied to five schools), but she was a constant and I did have comfort knowing that she was lighting my way. I received 4 admits, two of them with aid. I know that those scholarship $$$ were based on the strength of essays that she really pulled out of me, line by line. I would not have known that I had it in me and I have to say that I am proud of my finished products. I had a great experience with SBC and give them my highest recommendation. In fact, a close friend has already signed up for next year. Money well spent and if I factor in my scholarship dollars, it was an investment that has already paid very concrete dividends.
