Scott and his team worked with me day and night to craft the best version possible of my application. The result was that I was accepted to the two M7 schools I applied to. This was made possible by Personal MBA Coach even under a truncated timeline given I started the application process late in the summer. Scott was very helpful with providing guidance on any topic I asked about given his extensive experience in the space and despite the number of clients he works with I always felt like his team did a great job of remembering my story and helping me articulate it successfully in my applications.

As a medical doctor with an outsider view of the MBA landscape, Scott and his team helped pushed my application to the top level. To be honest, I didn’t speak with other consultants as I was sold on the deal after my first chat with Scott. He was sincere and genuine about my chances and where we needed to be as a team if I wanted a shot at the schools I was applying to. He was also readily available for phone calls and email chats within 48 hours when needed. With essay writing, the regular edits and push from the editors ensured that I introspected into why a sentence or paragraph belonged in my essay – that in turn, made me dig deeper into how I wanted to convey my story and journey as a medical doctor seeking an MBA. I have nothing but thanks and adulation for my essay editor(s). Secondly, my mock interviewers were the best, they helped me rework my answers to the behavioural questions to highlight the points I want conveyed. Overall, this was money well spent as I am going to an M7 with significant scholarship (+ I also got a T15 admit with 50% scholarship). Thank you, Scott and team!!!!

Scott and his team were instrumental during my MBA journey. He is extremely knowledgable about the admissions process and knew how to bring out the best in my application. Working with Scott and his team on school strategy to essays and interview prep despite some tight timelines was a smooth and structured process. I was worried about how things would go since I applied in Round 3/4 for programs from an overrepresented finance background, but Scott's transparent and unbiased feedback and support ultimately helped me to land five T15 interviews and admits for those schools. I was even able to receive a full ride from one and a half tuition scholarship from another. If you are considering applying for an MBA program, I highly recommend working with Scott and the Personal MBA Coach Team!!!!!

I cannot recommend Personal MBA Coach enough. I was admitted with scholarships to Booth, Kellogg, and Anderson.

I went to art school for my undergraduate degree, earning a BFA, and have worked in the film industry for a little over 5 years. With such an unconventional background, it was particularly important that I present a strong story in my application. Scott provided guidance to holistically craft my story through every aspect of the application, from what was on my resume to my essays and short answers.

His team helped polish my resume, by strengthening the way I bulleted my accomplishments at work. The school-specific interview prep was also super beneficial, helping me think of good experiences to pull from to provide examples to answer interview questions and structure my responses to be clear and easy to follow.

Beyond this, Scott was available at every step of the process to advise me about what schools would be the right fit for me, what story works best for each essay question, and whether I needed to retake the GMAT.

When I applied to MBA programs 3 years ago I was waitlisted at T20 schools. Personal MBA coach was 10000% worth the investment, especially considering I earned 180k total in scholarships from two M7 schools.

I was happy to work with Scott and his team. First, for their punctual edits and the necessary push to be on track. Second, for the genuine interest that Scott has in understanding our background and helping us prepare the right content for each school. Lastly, the mock interviews were amazing as each of my mock interviewers were alumni of the school I was preparing for and had prior interviewing experience. Scott's networking with admissions committee members of schools help us get a clear idea of the expectations in our essays and increase prepardness. It was an wonderful experience working with Scott and I would recommend for any aspiring MBA student.

With the help of Scott and the entire Personal MBA Coach team, I was accepted to 5 of my 6 schools with 1 waitlist (all T15 programs). I received over $375k in scholarship funding, including $115k to an M7 and a full ride to a T15 program. The investment in Scott and his team is well worth it. The essay feedback forced me to reflect on the “why’s” of my application, which ultimately made me a stronger candidate and be more prepared for interviews. They helped me tailor my story for each school, all without compromising the authenticity of my voice. It is no small feat applying to six schools, but with the project management tool and guaranteed next day turn around for essay edits, I was able to submit strong applications well ahead of the application deadlines. Scott and his team also provided excellent interview preparation from comprehensive prep guides to mock interviews. I am confident I would not have received the results I did without the support of Scott and his extremely talented team. I would 10/10 invest in their services again!

I can't recommend Scott and his team enough. They are extremely comprehensive, structured, and professional in their approach to guiding you. Applying to business school really forces you to introspect and ask yourself why you really want an MBA. Scott and co, really help you through this introspection process, and you kind of learn more about yourself in the process, and I think that's why they are very good at what they do. I applied to only M7 schools + Haas, I got interviews from 5 and 4 admits . Even the interview coaching was very structured. If I were a prospective MBA applicant, I wouldn't think twice about going elsewhere, Scott is your guy.

Scott and his team at Personal MBA Coach were absolutely incredible to work with. As someone without a lot of connections with business school experience/aspirations, finding a consultant was an important step that I had decided on quite early in my application journey. After shopping around the different options for a bit, I chose to work with Scott and his team for a couple of different reasons: they provide extremely comprehensive support, I felt that Scott genuinely cared about my MBA journey, and they had a great track record for M7 programs.

From the start, Scott and his team were masterful in helping me craft my story, patient in my many essays and resume revisions, and honest in their recommendations from an admissions perspective. I initially had the least confidence in my essays, resume, and interviews, and with the support of the editing and interview prep teams, I was as confident in those as ever. For perspective, I applied to seven schools, received six interviews, and was then admitted to all six, some with significant scholarships. From those results alone, I think the quality of the support really speaks for itself, and I credit much of it to each step being handled by true experts.

Finally, I think what really sets Scott apart from the other admissions consultants is his accessibility — I’ve had many small questions pop up throughout my application process (ranging from financial aid, application strategy, logistics, etc), and he’s been very patient and prompt in his responses. He really understands that every component of the application matters.

Results-wise, I will be attending my top choice of MIT Sloan this fall. Outside of that, I was also admitted to CBS ED and Wharton, and I additionally was admitted to Kellogg, Ross, and Stern with significant scholarships (with Stern being a full ride). As someone who initially was not confident at all with the admissions process, this cycle was a tremendous success, and I could not have done it without the support of Scott and his team. I would highly recommend working with Scott and his team at Personal MBA Coach for personal, knowledgeable, and comprehensive support in your business school applications.

An investment that is worth every penny: Scott and the Personal MBA Coach team were an absolutely amazing resource for tying together my application package. The strength of his program provided me with a feeling of insurance that I was showing MBA admissions boards the best written version of myself. The editors on staff are extremely responsive and interactive when it comes to articulating your ideas and crafting your “story” into a written essay format. The editor that worked with me would return comments on my writing typically within 24-48hrs which dramatically eased the iteration process and any stress associated with the application timeline.
Furthermore, the proofreader milestone in which finalized essays are scrubbed to perfection provides you with strong reassurance that the pieces of your application are truly ready when it comes time to actually click the “SUBMIT” button.
Most importantly, Scott is incredibly available for a gut check conversation whenever needed. The Personal MBA Coach team does an incredible job working through your written products while Scott provided me with great big-picture consulting guidance for navigating the application cycle.
Tremendous resource.
