I had a fantastic experience with MBA & Beyond. I started my MBA application journey quite late—around the end of November 2024—giving me just 40 days to prepare all my essays. Initially, I was hesitant about whether I could complete strong applications in such a short time, but the team at MBA & Beyond gave me the confidence and support I needed.

After speaking with a few consultants, I chose to work with Praveg because, from our very first call, he had a clear vision of how to position my story—something no other consultant had provided. His feedback and editing transformed my essays, making them significantly more impactful. His ability to refine and elevate my writing was truly impressive.

What also set MBA & Beyond apart was their structured process. The initial data-gathering phase was comprehensive and helped me consolidate content that I could use across multiple essays, making the writing process much more efficient. Additionally, Kanishka, my admissions coordinator, was incredibly responsive. She promptly addressed my queries and arranged mock interviews with alumni from each school I received an interview invite from—these sessions were invaluable in preparing me for the real interviews.

Given my tight timeline, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re looking for a consultant who deeply understands storytelling and offers a structured approach to MBA applications, I highly recommend MBA & Beyond!

The overall process was logically driven and clearly divided into critical steps for efficient results, they first collected the overall content using a Welcome form, followed by a strategy call to brainstorm the overall narrative. This enabled me pick the right anecdotes to craft a strong narrative and enabled me to pick the right schools based on my strengths and career goals. The counsellor was not only knowledgeable but also exceptionally sharp and offered invaluable insights. As I completed my content working closely with the counsellor, my content was then reviewed by a panel of experts which helped me make the required changes before applying. Overall, the robust process and intelligent counselling helped me land an admit from Alliance Manchester Business School and an interview from ESADE Spain, furthermore I am expecting more interview calls and offers.

I reached out to the team at MBA and Beyond in early 2024 and the team, with a special mention to my consultant, Praveg Maheshwari, along with Kanishka and Shantanu have been a steady support.

I remember wondering if investing 5000$ into admissions consulting was worth it. Despite my initial hesitation, the interest and dedication shown by the team was enough for me to take the plunge.

The team really ensured that the process was smooth from day one! I was assigned an application buddy (Kanishka) and met my consultant, Praveg soon after. After an initial review and a general conversation that was documented about my life, professional and personally, I met with Praveg and Shantanu to decide on my schools, based on my strengths and my overall profile. After this, Praveg helped me understand all the essay prompts and we took off from there. He's been a delight to work with and I couldn't thank him enough for his patience.

It's rare to stumble upon mentorship that adjusts to your needs and your life's circumstances and still bring out the best in you and your application journey. Praveg and Kanishka were pivotal for me to get to my offer letters.

Kanishka never missed a call, regardless of what time of the day it was and was ever so resourceful all the way. Thank you, for always making sure none of my questions went unanswered and for always leading with honesty and kindness.

The fact that MBA and Beyond was able to match me with a consultant who had a background, and interests similar to mine was a small effort I was initially surprised by. This was also rare for someone who doesn't come from a STEM background and I've appreciated it all along. I'll always be thankful for Praveg's patience and for his steady insights. He has always focused on my 'holistic' profile and how to enrich it, despite my fairly moderate GMAT score. He nudged me to apply to schools that weren't on my radar initially after understanding my needs and aspirations, along with my background. I believe I have him to solely thank for my offer letter from HKUST, with a scholarship! I've received an interview call from each of the schools I've applied to so far!

To sum it all up, I couldn't recommend the team at MBA and Beyond Team enough.

I reached out to MBA&Beyond close to the 2nd round and they were extremely prompt to respond and set everything up for me.

My application buddy was Kanisha and she was extremely helpful and professional throughout the process. She was always prompt to respond and more than willing to get on a call to guide/resolve any concerns.

My consultant was Praveg who was absolutely outstanding throughout the process. He knows the school's goals and motivations well and provides the right guidance to help you align your story and goals with them. He is very professional and prompt to respond/set up calls. He takes a keen interest in your story and with him I was able to be confident in my essays. He has the ability to guide you to highlight the right points in your application.

I would highly recommend reaching out to MBA&Beyond and look out for Praveg and Kanishka. Overall, a very positive, professional and helpful experience!

First and foremost - a big thank you to the MBA & Beyond team.

Coming from a nontraditional background, I was hesitant and sceptical about my chances of gaining admission into my dream school and other top b-schools. I heard of MBA and Beyond through GMAT Club forums and decided to approach them for a consultation. I was immediately impressed at their efforts to understand my profile and allocate me a consultant whose experience aligned with the goals I hope to achieve. Additionally, I was allocated to an application buddy.

You are immediately given access to an online portal filled with resources to help your application. From sample essays for each school and topic, to letter of recommendation templates to send to your recommenders. There are some introductory essays and paragraphs that allow the team to better understand you and whom to allocate you to. The entire application process requires significant introversion and these essays facilitate exactly that.

I was fortunate to have been worked with Praveg Maheshwari. As an admissions consultant, he guided me through the entire process and was always available to seek advice or the opinion of. His critical analysis, honesty, and patience in revising through countless iterations of the same essays was invaluable. With his work experience and insights, I was able to formulate not only compelling essays, but also a robust post-MBA plan. I really can’t emphasise how even between travelling and on weekends, he was always available to review essays so I could meet a deadline.

My application buddy, Kanishka, was vital in the process too. Whenever I needed assistance, or needed reminding as I often do, she was always there. She was extremely helpful in arranging mock interviews with other consultants for me. It was a pleasure to work with her and to have the support structure in place to help you in this demanding journey. A special thanks to Sanath and Harshul from the MBA and Beyond team for the impressive mock interviews that allowed me to go on to secure admission at all three target schools.

Overall, if you are uncertain of your chances and need structured guidance through the process, I highly recommend MBA & Beyond.
