Consultant Nisha Trivedi
Before I found Nisha, I had met with several other admissions consultants from other companies, and I left each meeting feeling discouraged. The feedback was either too general to apply to my specific circumstances or so it was so negative that it made me anxiously second-guess everything. Nisha manages to balance honest and constructive feedback with a positive and supportive attitude that made me feel confident about my career goals and how I expressed them in my applications. There were instances where we needed to scrap essay ideas and start from scratch, and Nisha helped me brainstorm ideas, combining my personal input with her expertise to land on essay topics that we both felt good about. The advice I received was honest, actionable, and personalized to my specific story and goals. In the end, I secured acceptances to 3 of the 4 T10 schools I applied to in Round 1, with some generous scholarship offers from a couple as well. Very happy with how everything worked out and I can't recommend Nisha and MBAmission enough!

I wouldn't!
I worked with Nisha Trivedi at onTrack and had an excellent experience. The whole program has incredible insights, and they are so helpful. Very grateful to have their services. It made a very daunting application process much easier. She helped me at every step of the process and learned so much about schools and myself. Nisha is encouraging, helpful, and has such helpful notes for my resume and essays. Extremely grateful for her help, and I couldn't recommend them more strongly.
I don't think I could have done it without their consistent help throughout the months of applications.

Consultant Jessica Shklar
Strengths:
SImply the best out there
Working with Jessica was one of the best decisions I made during my MBA application process. Her guidance was thoughtful, strategic, and genuinely personalized—and it changed the quality of my application and the confidence I had submitting it.
From day one, Jessica helped me get to the heart of my story. She took time to understand my professional background and the personal experiences behind it—what motivates me, what I value, and where I’m headed. She then helped me pull out clear themes and shape them into a narrative that felt authentic, cohesive, and compelling.
She’s also incredibly good at asking the questions you didn’t realize you needed. Jessica balanced encouragement with direct, constructive feedback, and she pushed me to be clearer and more specific—especially when articulating my goals and impact. I walked away with a much stronger point of view and a sharper way of communicating it.
Jessica has a great eye for detail without ever taking over your voice. She helped me tighten language, strengthen structure, and elevate the polish of my essays and short answers—while making sure everything still sounded like me. The final product felt like the best, most intentional version of my own work.
Jessica brings strong judgment, empathy, and exceptional communication skills to every step of the process. I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone applying to MBA programs who wants a consultant that will help you find your story, sharpen your message, and feel supported from start to finish.

Consultant Rachel Beck
Working with Rachel was the best decision I made throughout my MBA application process. From our very first conversation, we formed an immediate connection. She took the time to really get to know me both personally and professionally which made all of our sessions and her feedback feel very authentic.
Rachel was there from start to finish. From helping me define and refine my goals, to crafting my story, to interview preparation, and ultimately helping me navigate my decision between my top two dream M7 business schools -- which I could not have gotten into without Rachel!
What truly sets Rachel apart is that she becomes your biggest cheerleader throughout the overwhelming and daunting process. She was so invested in my success and genuinely cared about my outcomes just as much as I did.
I truly cannot recommend her enough!

Consultant Jessica Shklar
Due to Jessica’s guidance, I went 6/6 on acceptances and earned $400K in scholarships. But far deeper than that, she helped me find my voice.
What moved me most was how deeply she listened. She took my scattered stories, anxieties, and ambitions and uncovered the emotional and strategic thread beneath them. She has a rare gift for finding, and gently elevating, your true voice, even when you’re still searching for it yourself.
She masterfully balances big-picture strategy with line-by-line execution. She saw patterns I could not see and went far beyond editing my words—drawing out insights I hadn’t fully articulated, then translating them into compelling narratives that felt unmistakably my own. I left every conversation more connected to the person I want to become.
She is a wise advocate for you—and exactly who you want in your corner to help you achieve your highest potential.

Consultant Gavriella Semaya
The Da Vinci of admissions. It looks like an over embellishment on the surface. However, from where I was to where I am now, this statement is not only apt, but a disservice to Gavriella's tireless and continuous efforts to help in every conceivable way. The canvas to admissions can not only be colourless, but blank at times. Gavriella adds all the right colours and textures to create a master piece I didn't think possible. I cannot recommend enough to those navigating the MBA landscape, whether it is essays or interviews. A superb operator and consultant and an invaluable asset to MBAMission.

Consultant Gavriella Semaya
Working with Gavriella was one of the best decisions I made throughout my MBA journey. From day one, I felt like I was in thoughtful, considerate, and deeply experienced hands and that feeling never wavered.
What immediately stood out was how organized and strategic she was. Gavriella knew exactly which essays to tackle first and in what order across schools, minimizing redundant work and making the entire process far more efficient than I ever could have managed on my own. She kept me completely on track with deadlines, supplemental materials, and the small details that are easy to overlook. Nothing fell through the cracks.
I genuinely felt I could trust her blindly, and that kind of confidence is rare in a process this high-stakes. Her responsiveness was remarkable, as she was available and engaged even through the holiday period, which meant I never felt stranded or anxious waiting for feedback when time was tight.
Beyond the logistics, Gavriella was a true creative partner. Her contribution to my essays was fundamental and she helped me find and articulate my story in a way that felt authentic and compelling. Her interview prep was equally invaluable, giving me the tools and confidence to walk in feeling ready.
What could have been an overwhelming and stressful experience was, thanks to Gavriella, genuinely manageable and at times even enjoyable. I have already recommended her to friends who are now working with her, which says everything. I cannot recommend her enough!

Consultant Jen Kedrowski
Strengths:
Working with Jen as my admissions consultant was one of the best decisions I made during my application process. Among her many professional strengths, three stood out in particular:
1. Attention to detail: Jen had a sharp eye for both big-picture improvements and subtle refinements. She'd often bring up school-specific pointers or anecdotes which I'd told her about during the essay brainstorming phase which could further elevate a very good essay or interview answer to an excellent one.
2. Approachability: Jen was quick to turn around essay drafts and respond to questions, and she encouraged brainstorming ideas over calls. Her feedback was constructive without being overwhelming, and her positive and encouraging nature made it very easy for me to build a strong rapport with her.
3. Global school-specific knowledge: This was one of the biggest pros of working with Jen. Her school-specific insights about programs in the US and Europe were extremely impressive. She really helped me showcase my fit with schools in different parts of the world while staying authentic to my story.
Would make the product better:
While I had a very positive experience overall, the upfront cost of the school package can feel high, especially at the beginning of the process. However, I'd definitely recommend it, especially if you are someone who is not very comfortable with writing essays or if you want someone to help you stay on track with deadlines.
Jen played a key role in helping me land 4 acceptances (LBS, INSEAD, Kellogg with scholarship, and Cambridge Judge). She was instrumental in helping me translate my quantifiable achievements into compelling essays and clearly articulate my professional impact during interviews. She's organized, approachable, and knows how to bring out the best in an applicant based on their story.
Her positive demeanor made it very easy for me to collaborate with her, and her vast experience working with applicants across both U.S. and international programs adds valuable global perspective, enabling her to guide candidates effectively across different cultures.
I'd strongly recommend working with Jen as your admissions consultant.

I had the pleasure of working with Gavriella on my Executive MBA applications, and I could not be happier with her support from start to finish. Gavriella is highly organized and always accessible for brainstorming or ad hoc questions, ensuring I felt supported every step of the way. She took the time to deeply understand my background, goals, and leadership style. Through her thoughtful guidance, I was able to clarify my personal brand and weave my milestone accomplishments into a compelling application narrative. The entire process was structured, detailed, and remarkably efficient. Thanks to her coaching, I completed applications for two programs and was accepted into both. I am now enrolled in my top-choice program and deeply grateful to Gavriella for giving me the confidence to succeed. I knew from day one I was in expert hands!

I had an unbelievable experience working with Rachel. She set expectations very high, and worked with me to make sure that we worked at a pace that was comfortable for me and allowed me to achieve my goals.
She helped me craft my story in a way that was unique, personal, and could connect with the schools, while allowing me to get the most out of my professional and personal storytelling.
She helped me interview and I got stronger and stronger throughout the process.
Last but not least I can tell she cared about me, and I really appreciated that.
