Jessica Shklar is the reason that I got into both HBS and GSB!

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

Jessica redefined every expectation. I was accepted to both schools that I applied to and Jessica was the secret ingredient i.e., I would never have been able to successfully get into both HBS and GSB without her.

+Crafts a powerful story: Jessica spends a lot of time/energy in understanding you/your story. I had varied experiences that didn't necessarily flow together; within 12 hours of reading my intro document, Jessica gave me 3 strong ideas for my core essays. The HARDEST part of the MBA process is delving deep and weaving a unique, compelling narrative — this is exactly where Jessica shines!
+Encourages you to stay true to yourself: Jessica will never make you sign-up for extracurriculars etc. to fit a mold; she takes existing accomplishments to build a powerful story. This is rare — other consultants wanted me to take on additional extracurriculars that were not true to who I really was

+Focus on crafting consistent applications: Jessica has an eye for detail; I recall how she noticed that I had highlighted contradictory points in different parts of my application — she knew my app better than I did!
+Thoughtful and empathetic: Jessica always made time for me (e.g., took a call on July 4th despite it being a holiday, responded to emails within minutes) -- she really cares about her clients

Jessica has 15+ YoE (I know 4 people who worked with her and EACH got into HBS, GSB, or both), is an excellent writer (her suggestions really “punched” up the story-telling), and moves fast without compromising quality (helped me complete it all in 1.5 months)

I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend both MBAMission & Jessica. Don’t think twice.
