MBA & Beyond employs a unique approach that involves identifying the candidate's unique personality traits and using them to build a compelling application. Their framework offers a limitless array of questions that enabled me to identify specific experiences in my life where I exemplified these traits. With the help of my consultant, Noam, I was able to craft my story to deliver maximum impact. Noam was an exceptional consultant, providing quick responses, honest feedback, and invaluable knowledge. MBA & Beyond's content gathering framework and call with Ayushi were both incredibly helpful in delving deep beneath the surface to uncover critical details about my experiences and skills, resulting in excellent content. Throughout the process, my application coordinator Shakshi provided outstanding support, connecting me with Vinita and Sneha from the team, who helped me prepare for the interviews. I would highly recommend MBA & Beyond to any aspiring MBA candidate looking to get into their dream school.

I took their 1 school package and aimed for my most ambitious school (LBS). They helped me work on my applications and essay by connecting me to an LBS student who was able to provide me with a direction for my essay, we took a good 2-3 months to craft my essay and I got constant assistance. They have a beautiful online platform that helps in introspection, (a 5 on 5). Even though I got a rejection from LBS, I am sure we put our best foot forward and I am at peace with the rejection. They were quick to respond to my queries and even extended additional support when I got interviewed at another school.

Already having failed to secure even an interview last year from Darden , my expectations were already rock bottom this year. I had half a mind not to reapply as I hadn’t improved any aspect of my MBA-application (apart from GMAT score).Last year, I tried writing my most significant and impactful stories and incidentally they were not good enough for top B-school like Darden. I figured that something needed to change this time and chose to work with MBA and B ( due to a glowing recommendation from a friend) to put my best application forward.

Shantanu has developed a unique methodology to take you through the guided journey of MBA application process starting from “Self-Discovery” to “finalizing stories” and writing an exceptional application.

After reviewing my past application with Shantanu, I realized that my application is not standing out from the over-represented pool of “Indian Engineers”. MBA and B helped me understand that MBA application-game is all about your USP and branding. And this was exactly what I needed to crack the admission at Darden.

My overall experience with the MBA and B was amazing. Apart from admits from Darden and INSEAD , I couldn’t have asked for anything more from the team. However, engaging in deep “Self-Discovery” sessions with Shantanu has given me a new way of introspection as well.
