My friend referred me Ryan, who had been accepted in one of the top MBAs with Ryan’s support. Then I watched Ryan’s webinar, and I instantly got assured that he was the one whom I wanted to work with.I had a below-average GMAT. However, I was still dreaming of attending the top business schools. My number one choice was Stanford GSB.We had a couple of sessions to create my brand strategy. It was an incredibly insightful process because, after these sessions, I got to know myself better, figured out how to position myself, and got solid ground on which I could build my story.Then we started working on a resume and essays. When I thought I had already achieved the desired result, Ryan used to get back with direct and harsh feedback. Sometimes I felt I was in a deadlock because I did not know how to improve my work. But Ryan never compromised and did not let me until I made my essays look PERFECT! He consistently did his best to make me create the best version of myself. Ryan always gives you direct feedback and never praises you for winning your heart.After about two months of working with Ryan, a miracle happened! Stanford GSB invited me to the interview!!! I am still shocked!!! I had a mock interview with Ryan and due to his hands-on experience, Ryan could put himself into the admissions team’s shoes and gave me extremely useful and tangible feedback.To sum up, I highly recommend Ryan! He KNOWS HIS JOB and is able to equip you for success in getting into a dream business school!
