Jessica Shklar is the best!

Working with Jessica is the best decision I made during my mba application

After 2 unsuccessful application cycles, I was in very low spirits, embarrassed and unsure how to proceed. I stumbled on an mbamission reel on Youtube and after hearing Jessica speak, booked a free consultation. She listened as I detailed my experiences, pointed out some areas where I may have fallen short in previous applications and encouraged me to not give up. I felt so comfortable speaking with her that I immediately opted in.

From the start, she spent time really getting to know me as a person. I especially loved that she showed me how painful / disappointing past experiences shaped me into the person I am and used the bits and pieces to develop a compelling story.

As I fleshed out my essays, she's was so good at asking questions I did not consider, challenging me to look deeper. She provided constructive feedback in a manner that made me want to do better so much so that when my cv and essays were done, I compared them with versions from previous application cycles and suffice to say the difference was clear.

Working with Jessica felt like having a partner who truly wanted me to succeed. She encouraged, critiqued, challenged and accommodated my terrible turnaround times as I juggled applications with work all resulting in my submitting a stellar application. I got in!

Told her I'll be her biggest cheerleader and I mean it. She's the best!
