Scott and Personal MBA are the right choice. They know the admissions game, how to highlight your strengths as an applicant, reflect them in your essays and interview, and tell a cohesive story. But even more impressively, their strong instincts come through every time you speak with them (shoutout Andrew), which minimizes any worries and doubts you’d have applying to school on your own. Personal MBA helped me get into competitive dual MBA/MS programs at multiple M7s, and I could not be happier. I would recommended Scott and the team to any prospective student interested in pursuing an MBA or other higher graduate degree (as an engineering grad school applicant, they were also extremely helpful)

Applied to two schools with Scott's help, and as of this moment have been waitlisted at one and have been invited to interview at the other. Scott is very easy to work with and most importantly is a no nonsense communicator who does not beat around the bush, which is what you want from your consultant in comparison to a consultant that tells you what you want to hear to make a quick buck. Scott and his team helped me stay on track through my application process in addition to providing me with valuable insights for my application; they did an incredible job bringing out the best version of my story for my applications.

When I first approached Scott about a consultation, I had no knowledge of the MBA application process, wasn't confident about my undergrad transcript, and came from an untraditional background (sales) - so I wasn't sure if being accepted to a top school was possible for me. However, Scott answered every question I have, was always available, helped me build an accountability plan for the admissions process as a whole, put me in touch with an excellent GMAT tutor, assisted with perfecting my essays, and it all resulted in an acceptance to NYU Stern, my #1 school! Couldn't have done it without him and I highly recommend him!
