I'll let my results speak for themselves: With a GMAT score in the 75th percentile and a 3.4 GPA, Ryan helped me earn acceptances to Booth, MIT Sloan, and Kellogg - three of the four schools we worked on as a team. These results were very far above my expectations (I had doubts I'd get in to even one of these schools) and I can say with 100% certainty that these results would have never been possible without Ryan's help. He brings incredibly deep knowledge of how to succeed in this MBA admissions process, and knows how to coach, inspire confidence and creativity, and write with clarity. Our work together yielded application materials that were just so compelling and exciting to read; I had so much confidence submitting materials that I knew were so high quality. After helping me to negotiate offers, I then was able to negotiate a sizeable scholarship to Kellogg - my top choice program - and I'll be headed there in the fall. I can't wait!
I talked to several MBA consulting coaches and firms before hiring Ryan, and I could just tell from our first conversation that he's genuinely vested in his candidates' successes. I'm so glad I opted to work with him instead of one of the large consulting firms that hire hundreds of consultants. He's truly one of a kind and I couldn't be a happier client.
