Product Vantage Point Comprehensive School Package
Consultant Meghan Ellis
I worked with Meghan Ellis on multiple MBA applications while also working full-time, and I truly believe I would not have been able to finish my applications without her help. Meghan was always available and always pushing me to refine and get to the heart of what I wanted to say - two things that were incredibly valuable to me given my busy schedule. She was truly invested in getting my authentic story across while also providing me valuable insights from the perspective of the admissions committee. I also really appreciated her encouragement and enthusiasm throughout the process - MBA apps are stressful, and I always felt like Meg was my champion throughout it all. I was accepted R1 to my top two schools with merit scholarships from both. Cannot recommend Meg/Vantage Point enough!

Consultant Melody Jones
I started working on my application with Melody more than a year before the deadline. Throughout that time, Melody was a coach, a mentor, and a constructive critic. She was instrumental in finding my true passion beyond the MBA, perfecting my story along the way. I truly believe that Melody’s personalized input has uplifted my application giving me a much better chance at my target school, and it Worked!
I would also like to mention that I live in a different time-zone than Melody’s (7 hours ahead) which should have been a communication nightmare if it was not for her continuous commitment and care.
I highly recommend Melody to anyone looking for a personalized experience with a top-notch expert.
Thank you, Melody, for believing in me and pushing me towards achieving my dreams.

Consultant Melody Jones
I cannot recommend Melody enough! I used the Comprehensive Package and was accepted to two of the four schools to which I applied and chose to attend Wharton/Lauder. Melody was always quick to provide extremely honest and constructive feedback on each component of my application package -- from the application itself, CV, essays, to interview preparation. Throughout the entire process, I was always so impressed with how Melody truly cared and personalized the experience to what I needed. I never felt like I was "on the clock" and she was there to help with all my last minute anxieties. Notably, I needed to navigate a deferral process (something that is not officially included in an admissions consulting package), and Melody was quick to offer advice and help me navigate the situation, even after I was admitted to school. I highly recommend Melody and the Vantage Point team to anyone looking for guidance in this process!

Consultant Melody Jones
I was a reapplicant who had tried to navigate the daunting process by myself before and had not gained admissions to the schools I had my heart set on. I had never considered working with an admissions consultant and found them generally intimidating until I met Melody. I was referred to Melody by a long-time friend who had just worked with her and valued her high standards of excellence, promptness, and kindness.
Melody was thoughtful and challenged me to do things differently, pushing me in the best way to stay motivated and make it through the finish line (through testing, the applications, and interviews). I appreciated her expertise and how she equipped me with the tools and knowledge to empower me to make decisions throughout my application process. Over time, I added more schools to our comprehensive package as I was impressed by our work together.
Ultimately, I had the opportunity to choose between my top 2 school choices, both Ivy League business programs that offered me scholarships, and I accepted the offer to my dream school. I’m confident it was because of my carefully crafted application and profile with Melody’s guidance. I highly recommend working with Melody or Vantage Point MBA to maximize your chances of success in your application journey and make your MBA dreams come through.

Consultant Anna Baskin
I came into the MBA admissions process with a good GMAT score but subpar GPA(2.91), and average work experience at a small company. I knew I needed help with conveying my life story and future aspirations so I decided to work with Anna from Vantage Point. The patience, insight, and guidance that she provided through this process was a big part in me obtaining an almost full-ride to my top-choice school(T-20)! She really took the time to understand me from a personal level, and I think that set me up for success when I was working through the application process. I would recommend Anna to anyone who wants to learn how to craft together a compelling personal story or wants to maximize admission success. We all have our own unique journey in life, but sometimes it takes some deep-dive reflection to convey that in a clear way!

My journey with Vantage Point started with a free consultation phone call with Melody, after I found out about the company on GMAT Club. The amount of insight Melody gave on the call, her knowledge and passion about the entire MBA application process stood out, and shortly after I signed up for her company`s comprehensive package.
The package was worth every penny because Melody doesn`t approach what you do together as just another job. She is very hands on and an experienced and wise guide, not agreeing to any subpar idea. It was very easy to reach Melody. She is open to always giving feedback, and all conversations with her are very genuine: no sugar coating, brutal honesty - the right recipe that encourages you to think outside the box and inspire you to compose the best essays you possibly can.
If you are ready to do the hard work to decide between the multiple offers you`ll get at the end of the road, I recommend you work with Melody. After a lengthy thought process, I decided that this fall I will be joining Tuck`s class of 2024.

Consultant Melody Jones
My partner and I worked with Melody on hourly package and we both got admits to all the 4 schools that we applied to including Kellogg, which was our top choice school. Melody is simply the best - she challenged us to get out of our comfort zones and motivated us to put our best foot forward. She helped us shape our essays in line with the American culture, all the while retaining their authenticity and bringing out key nuances of our stories. We loved how she always gave us direct and honest feedback on our essays. We would not have been able to craft our essays as well as we did without her guiding us through the self-reflection and essay writing process.
The process was sometimes overwhelming as my partner and I wanted to get into a school together. But Melody kept our morale high and motivated us at every step. Even when I struggled with GMAT, she not only encouraged me but also went out of her way to provide me great resources for my preparations. She is the nicest person to work with. I would highly recommend Melody and Vantage Point to anyone who wants to give their 100% to the application process.

Consultant Molly Schnettler
I worked with Molly to prepare for the Chicago Booth interview. The mock interview was super, super helpful! She customized the mock to the school specifically, provided very constructive feedback on my answers, didn’t sugarcoat anything, and provided insights about the school. For example, when I said I wanted to create a new club, she pointed out that there is already a similar club at the school. When she provided feedback, she included specific examples and also gave me ideas on how to make the answer better. Molly was very patient, really calmed my nerves, and gave me the confidence for the real interview. Her mock interview was very similar to the real interview. I am so grateful I had the mock interview with her!
Beyond that, Melody, one of the founders at Vantage Point MBA also answered a lot of my questions and gave me a lot of advice throughout the application process, which is totally out of the scope of the service. She was so sincere and patient, just as if I was her own comprehensive package client. Because of Molly and Melody’s help, I was admitted to Booth! I really wish I knew Vantage Point MBA earlier, and I highly recommend them!

Consultant Melody Jones
From our very first meeting, Melody managed to ease my nerves and help establish a timeline for my application. We started with a big-picture approach which was so helpful for someone coming in with little knowledge on the MBA landscape and process. From the GRE to my essays and recommendations, she made the process streamlined and stress-free, all while being kind and patient. I applied to only one school, so the stakes were high, but Melody helped me frame my story and my post-career goals perfectly. I could not have done it without her, and I highly recommend her to anyone who is intimidated by the process. Thank you, Melody - Vantage Point Consulting was the most worthy investment!

Consultant Jaime Rooney
Working with Melody, Jaime, and the rest of the Vantage Point MBA team was an amazing experience from start to finish, and I wouldn't have received acceptance to multiple top 20 full-time MBA programs without their invaluable knowledge, expertise, recommendations, and insights. Going into the round 1 applications I knew I had some noticeable gaps in my overall application. The Vantage Point team worked with me throughout the process to give me the confidence to follow through with the applications, highlight my strengths, and demonstrate to admissions committees I have what it takes to be in their programs. They believed in me even when I doubted myself, and I can't thank them enough for their consistent support and help. I couldn't have done it without them, and I highly recommend them to everyone!
