Scott was recommended to me by a friend who was using his service. I am so glad that I eventually decided to go with Scott! I got into both HBS and Wharton and will start my journey at HBS this coming fall. Scott and his team were very helpful throughout the process, helping me with my story and essays, as well as the interview prep. For each school I signed up with him, he and his team went through 6+ essay edits with me. Super patient! For HBS and GSB, we went through 10+ edits. Each time the comments were very helpful! In addition, shout out to MJ. She helped me with my interview prep for both HBS and Wharton. I would highly recommend them!

I got accepted into the Deferred Enrollment Program at CBS, and I have The Personal MBA Coach Team and Scott to thank for this. They helped connect my experiences and accomplishments to my future goals and portray it in an apt manner to the Adcoms. They are upfront about their feedback and only had my success in mind throughout the process. Innumerable rounds of review does not bother them. The interview prep is also spot on and extremely helpful to a nervous interviewee like myself. Without them, I don't think I would get into any deferred MBA program. I would strongly recommend them to any potential candidate.

Scott, Nicole, and the team did an amazing job helping me with brainstorming, essay editing, the application process, interview prep, and waitlist navigation. When we first started working they sent great information on how to write a successful application for my target schools. We then started chatting about what stories from my background make me unique and will be interesting to admissions. During the essay editing process, they pushed me to dig deeper and tell a more compelling story. Before hitting submit I had tons of application-specific questions and they did a great job of quickly answering them. Once invited to interview for a few schools they provided some fantastic school-specific tips and offered actionable feedback on ways to improve my answers. Scott and the team continued to support me during the waitlist process and answer my endless questions. I was able to get off the waitlist and accepted into one of my target programs. Highly recommend!

I worked with MJ from Personal MBA Coach for my applications. MJ took the time to learn about me personally and combine my experiences and passions into a cohesive narrative for my MBA and career goals. Though I was a career switcher with a broad range of experiences, MJ really helped my highlight my strong points as an applicant and articulate that clearly. The editors are also incredibly detail oriented and quick to turn things around. They explained why they were providing specific edits rather than just redrafting my essays, which was incredibly helpful. Writing for MBA applications is very different than anything else, even other graduate programs, but the editors really helped me understand how to approach all of my essays which was very helpful. If you can afford to do the inclusive school package, I would definitely recommend it!

Scott and his team are truly talented. The Personal MBA Coach team and a lead editor worked on my content for one school (NYU Stern), which I was accepted into! Scott was professional, easy to work with, and turned around the essay I sent to his team quickly (<10 days before the Round Two deadline). I appreciated the mix of in-line feedback and thought provoking comments. When I sent the draft of my essay to Scott, I did not feel confident about the content or structure. Because of Scott's help, I was able to confidently submit my essay. Thank you so much for being so wonderful to work with!

Personal MBA Coach team provided invaluable support throughout the GRE and application process. The team offered great feedback as I made my school selections, crafted essays, and prepared for interviews. They also kept me on schedule during a very busy work time so that I was able to submit everything on time. The GRE was my biggest anxiety during the process but weekly studying sessions with Ryan improved my score greatly. They eased my stress during the whole process. With Personal MBA Coach team's help, I was admitted to my top choice school! I can not recommend Scott and his team enough.

I worked with Scott for applying to both Wharton and Haas EMBA programs. His thorough approach, approachable attitude, and personalized guidance helped me get into Haas! This would not have been possible without him! Scott was very patient from the beginning to end and advised me every step of the way on EA test prep, recommendation letters, essays and interview.

His guidance were extremely and MJ's interview prep sessions helped me a lot as they gave me the confidence to interview well. I highly recommend Scott and MJ for any and all of the top business school application and interview prep.

Working with Nicole and Scott was amazing. Not only I enjoyed the process of developing my application but also resulted with a state-of-the-art application with powerful essays that helped me get in the schools I wanted to. I would totally recommend Personal MBA Coach if you are looking to boost your application. Nicole and Scott managed to put in my shoes to understand my goals and take the path to tell my personal story. Their greatest strength it is with no doubts the personalized attention that they provide to you in order to feel that you are completely covered with the tools needed to write high-end essays. I was struggling between different consultants and what really made me decide Personal MBA Coach over the rest was their focus on candidate experience throughout the development of the applications.

I had an all-around great experience working with Scott and the entire Personal MBA Coach team and highly recommend them to anyone else. To start, Scott and his team really took the time to understand why I wanted an MBA and helped me narrow down schools to the ones that fit well with my short and long-term goals. They truly understand the ins and outs of the MBA application process and made sure that I was on time and prepared for each part of the application process for each school. They helped me craft a personal mission statement and provided me with consistent resume, essay, and interview prep and feedback. Throughout the entire application process, they continually made me feel supported, motivated, and organized and were incredibly easy to work with and understanding. They even went above and beyond to help me navigate a tough waitlist situation over several months, helping me drive communication both with the school, alumni, and other resources. At the end of the day, I got interviews for every school I applied to and was accepted into all of those where I went through the interviews. A huge thank you to Scott and his team for all their help I highly recommend them to anyone looking to start (or for any point during) the MBA application process.

I met Scott 3 years ago at an MBA fair in Paris. I decided to work with him for my round 2 applications and called him pretty late in the process. I was worried about my low GPA, my age and the price tag. From the initial meeting, Scott gave me non-sugarcoated advice about my candidacy. Working with The Scott’s team was amazing. The team is highly professional. There were a lot of exchanges and I was pushed to think deeply on my career goals and the meaning of every bit of sentences in my application documents. Be prepared to be challenged on that part. Towards the end of the preparation, the team checked how I felt about my work. I was very proud of the quality of my application! The interview prep was great too. I was asked the same questions I was asked during my real interviews (shout out to Nicole and Jacqueline!).
I applied to 2 US schools (CBS and Booth) and 1 European school, got admitted at both the US schools with scholarships and haven’t received the European’s school response yet but I am pretty sure It will be a “yes”.
All in one, this outcome would never have been possible without Scott and his amazing team (I know it for sure since I applied round 1 with another consultant on an hourly basis and looking back, I can confidently say that I messed these applications up).
Calling Scott was the best decision I made next year! Thank you, Scott and the Personal MBA Coach team for this outcome!
