Consultant Rachel R Nelson
I worked with Rachel on two schools (Sloan Early and HBS 2+2) while applying to M7 deferred MBA programs. She was worth every penny, and you should look no further if you’re willing to put in the work.
Rachel helped me frame my disparate experiences across industries into a single logical, compelling, and unique narrative. She pushed me to go deeper than surface-level accomplishments and helped me understand what actually made my story distinctive. Her feedback was always thoughtful, specific, and honest, and she had an incredible ability to identify both the strongest parts of my application and the areas that needed more clarity.
What stood out most was how supported I felt throughout the process. Rachel was responsive, encouraging, and deeply invested in helping me put forward the best possible version of my story. She made an intimidating and often ambiguous process feel structured and manageable, from brainstorming to essays to interview preparation. I always felt like she understood not just what schools were looking for, but also who I was and how to communicate that authentically.
I ultimately received offers from HBS 2+2, MIT Sloan Early, and Chicago Booth Scholars, and I do not think I would have had the same results without Rachel’s guidance. For anyone applying to deferred MBA programs, especially if you have a non-linear background or are trying to tie together multiple interests and experiences, Rachel is exactly the person you want in your corner. Highly, highly recommend.
