Admitted to HBS, Dream come true - Thank you Harshad!!

During our first call, Harshad immediately put me at ease. He explained that there was no pressure to work together and didn’t come across as salesy. That made our discussion productive and helped me understand clearly how he could guide me. He shared detailed foundational materials at the start. While these felt overwhelming and a bit bureaucratic at first, they ended up being incredibly helpful for keeping the process organized and making communication across multiple drafts and essays much easier.

After spending years in my own professional bubble, my version of my story came off as dry. Harshad’s deep understanding of the MBA admissions landscape made all the difference. He helped me turn my background into compelling, clear narratives that highlighted the unique qualities I’d bring to the classroom. He also guided me in striking the right balance between my experiences and aspirations in my applications.

Harshad invests time not only in understanding your story but also in noticing patterns in how you think, which proved very useful. He organized multiple calls and made it easy for me to clarify what mattered most and what I wanted from business school.

His school selection strategy was logical and centered on what you’re hoping to get from the MBA experience. I ended up changing some schools on my final Round 1 list based on his advice. After visiting campuses and speaking with students and alumni, I found his perspectives truly added value to my own research. He helped me prioritize which applications would be most challenging and which materials could be reused across schools. He consistently put my best interests first. Even for schools where I wasn’t using his services, he generously shared his advice.

For one of my essays, I struggled to keep my message concise without losing its core meaning. Harshad patiently worked through several drafts with me until I was happy. His incredibly fast turnaround, often within 24 hours, was a lifesaver while I balanced work and applications.

Thanks to Harshad’s guidance, I was admitted to Harvard, which was truly a dream come true. His methodical approach and patient mentoring were key in helping me overcome my initial challenges and present the strongest possible application.

If you’re worried about not having the usual feeder pedigree that seems common on online forums, don’t get discouraged. Be genuine when telling your story and work with Harshad, who is truly skilled at helping you showcase what makes you unique so you can stand out in a competitive pool.
