Consultant Jessica Shklar
I had the privilege to work with Jessica, not only during my own application process, but leading up to it. I started interviewing for admissions consultants, over 15+, and it was clear from the outset Jessica was not only the one with the most knowledge into effective strategies, but the one who humanized potential applicants the best. I left speaking with her late in 2024 knowing that she would be my consultant of choice for my application cycle in 2025: and I was not disappointed!
I had been in regular contact with Jessica sharing professional and personal updates, and starting brainstorming with her in the March timeframe. As she said, and I later realized, I had all the raw components for an excellent application, and she was the artist who helped me mold it to tell my authentic story. She was masterful in providing her own feedback, but acknowledging the stories were my own, so we often struck an excellent balance as to what I wanted to write but what she deemed best for my stories.
Jessica never missed a deadline, communicated her approaches with crystal clarity, and even successfully weaved components of one school’s application to another, making the whole process less burdensome. She would often hop on calls with me last minute just to iron things out rather than ping pong drafts back and forth which I genuinely appreciated. But probably an underrated characteristic was her help in managing my anxiety after I interviewed and hit submit- a huge plus to future applicants who don’t want to be daunted by the process.
Thanks to Jessica, I got accepted to 5 total schools (two M7s) with around $500K in total scholarships. I can very confidently say I would not be so fortunate were it for Jessica’s help, and can even more reliably state that my future successes at the business school I choose will be in large part due to her guidance/mentorship. Potential applicants who are reading my testimonial; Jessica is worth every penny in gold to help you reach your own professional endeavors.
