I worked with Scott on a package for five schools—all M7—and was accepted to every one of them. Overall, I applied to 11 schools, received interview invitations from 10, and was accepted to 9. The only two schools I was rejected from were the ones I didn’t work on with him.

Scott provided clear, strategic guidance that helped me shape compelling short- and long-term goals. His essay editing process, in particular, pushed me to be deeply introspective—it challenged me to reflect on my experiences, values, and motivations in a way that not only strengthened my application but helped me grow as a candidate and person.

His team was especially valuable during interview prep—shoutout to Jacqueline for being fantastic. His process is straightforward, efficient, and he was incredibly accommodating when I had less than four weeks to submit Round 2 applications.

With his support, I received a full scholarship to my second-choice school and was admitted to my top choice. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Scott is a fantastic coach. He gave me the confidence to reach for schools I didn't believe I could get int to. Once I had the confidence, he provided me with all the tools I needed to achieve my goals.
I was able to get into most of my target schools and was offered scholarships at many of them, including the school I now attend, so it is definitely worth the investment!
I loved the structured approach to writing essays, making applying to the six schools I did not feel as daunting. He reminds you of important things like how to approach letters of recommendation and interviews.

Scott and his team delivered beyond my expectations. Firstly, GMAT was a major stress point; Scott has some great tutors working with him, and I was able to get 730 - much higher than I thought would be possible. Their tailored approach to GMAT prep, combined with intensive practice, was crucial to my success.

Secondly, I got admitted to Chicago Booth, which seemed like a dream at the start. Initially, I was searching for the easier route, considering less competitive schools. However, Scott was insistent that it would be a big mistake and that I should aim as high as possible. His encouragement pushed me to set more ambitious goals.

Finally, he and his team helped craft my story and secure the desired admission to Chicago Booth.

Scott is exceptional and I cannot recommend him enough! Scott was very candid to me about which schools I would be competitive at for admissions and scholarship, and did not employ any fear-based strategies or "you need me" speeches like his competitors did. My GRE improved from 315 to 326 within 2.5 months. I ended up getting multiple scholarships to T15, including my top choice. Scott is genuinely available 24/7, and he was very prompt and informative about responding to even my most vague questions. I worked West Coast hours, but he did an excellent job structuring my test prep around my hectic work schedule.

I spoke with four MBA consultants before deciding to work with Scott and couldn't be more happy with my decision. I came in with a non-traditional professional background and roughly median test scores for top 10 schools, and Scott helped me get accepted to my top choice M7.

Scott is an exceptional listener. He put in significant effort up front to really understand my story and work with me to craft the optimal coherent narrative to present myself to schools. He helped me every step of the way: from writing my CV, to selecting the right schools, to being strategic with essay topic choices, to managing various priorities when deadlines loomed, to interview prep, and even through the anxious waitlist period. I can confidently say that without Scott I would have probably not gotten into my top choice off of the waitlist.

Scott is the kind of guy who picks up the phone when you call. Having worked in client services for 6 years prior to applying to MBA programs, I can easily say that Scott is top notch in the space. He is consistent, smart, reliable, and knows this arena inside and out. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a MBA consultant, especially if you come from a less well-known industry.
