MBA and Beyond has a comprehensive nine-step approach that made the whole business school application process much easier for me. Following their steps helped me understand and manage each part of the application without feeling overwhelmed.What I appreciate most about MBA and Beyond is the support and guidance you get from your consultant. I worked with Ashmita, and having unlimited time with her was a big advantage. She not only helped with the application details but also provided valuable advice on dealing with self-doubt and staying motivated. The time and effort Ashmita spent on each aspect of my application is truly commendable.I owe a lot to Ashmita and the entire MBA and Beyond team for their role in my successful admission to Cambridge Judge Business School.

After looking around at different admissions consultants, I had an initial session with Paridhi. She was very helpful and realistic about what I can expect from the journey and service.Once I signed up, I started working with Punit who was absolutely fantastic. He helped me finesse my CV and made me look introspectively which enabled me to craft a really powerful representation of myself within my essay. He was really patient and helped guide me along the path. With his help I received an offer from my desired school along with a 70% scholarship. I really couldn’t have done it without him.The skills I learnt through the process were really beneficial and will help me with future job prospects. I would 100% recommend the service.

MBA&Beyond was spectacular. They took the time to really learn my story to be able to properly develop my profile and strategy. They made it a point to be available at short notice to help refine/finesse my essays, answer my questions, and prep for interviews. My consultant had a great, positive attitude that helped keep me motivated throughout the entirety of this daunting process. Of the 3 schools I applied to using MBA&Beyond as a consultant, I was accepted to all 3 – 100% success rate (t15 & t20 schools). I received 50% scholarship at two schools and a 90% scholarship at the third. I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. I give MBA&Beyond 5/5 stars for their service.I would highly recommend MBA&Beyond for anyone who is trying to break into an elite MBA program.

I am an Indian Army woman veteran who embarked upon the journey to the dream B school with MBA & Beyond. I was taken through the process with step-by-step guidance and mentoring.I worked closely with the consultant Pranav Shetty who utilized his due diligence to understand my background and strengths and prepare the winning pitch for me. I immensely benefited from the focused and structured approach that MBA & Beyond adopts with the prospective candidates. Their deep dive into the candidate’s background and matching it with the requirements of the targeted B school results in perfect essays.The contribution of MBA & Beyond in crafting my application exceeded my expectations which helped me secure admission to my dream school.

My experience with MBA & Beyond has been amazing. I got an interview invite from 3 out of the five schools that I applied to. The best thing about MBAB is the unlimited time with consultants. This allowed me to experiment with the essay stories as I’ve more time to make errors and get them corrected. Also, with the frequent calls with the consultant, I had to be consistent with the application process. This eventually led me to apply for R1 for all my target schools.The whole 7-step process is beautifully designed. During content gathering, I explored my own profile and wrote stories that I never thought would reflect so many of my versatile traits.I enjoyed the whole process of writing essays, preparing for the interviews, and celebrating the small wins with the MBAB team.I would definitely recommend MBAB as an admissions consultant.

My experience with the MBA and Beyond was nothing short of amazing. Their constant availability meant that I could rely on them at any time, which was immensely reassuring during the stressful application process. Their professionalism was evident in every interaction, ensuring a smooth and efficient experience. What stood out the most was their unwavering support and in-depth knowledge, which guided me through complex decisions with ease. Above all, their genuine care for their applicants shone through, as they always put my best interests at the forefront. This team not only delivers exceptional service but also truly invests in the success of their clients.

I enrolled with MBA&Beyond for a second review of my application since I was already working with another consultant full-time.After a few initial hiccups, I shared the first draft of my CV and essays with them, and we had our first call.The good part was that despite knowing that the work was already seen by another consultant, Harshul did not take any shortcuts. He was thorough with his work and gave in-depth review points before our first call itself. Discussing these points and getting to know me was done on our first call. We did two rounds of reviews, and he made me understand looking at the application from a bird’s eye view.I also spoke to him before my interview call, and he was forthcoming with advice related to post-MBA options and locations that I can consider.It was a good experience overall, and I’d recommend it.

MBA & Beyond provides the much-needed structure to help MBA aspirants apply to their dream schools.They provide a detailed profile evaluation, match you with one of their in-house consultants, and guide you through the entire process of content gathering before starting with the applications. Not to mention their help in fine-tuning your resume and stories for your LOR.The team at MBA&B is very approachable and always there to address any concerns that you may have throughout the application process. They are also quite easy on the pocket when compared to a lot of other MBA consultants.The mock interviews that Shantanu & Dr.Vinita conducted were super helpful and really helped me narrow down the stories that I wanted to talk about during my interview. Overall, I had a positive experience working with them!

Highly recommend it, particularly for students with one glaring weak spot in their profile.The team has a robust process and offers unlimited one-to-one sessions throughout the application & interview process.My essays were reviewed by multiple members of the team.I received multiple responses to my profile evaluation post here on GMATClub, and many consultants wrote me off, saying INSEAD and similar schools are far reaches, but Neha’s thorough response saying its a challenge but entirely possible instilled confidence in me, knowing their team sees something the others didn’t.After the initial onboarding calls with Paridhi, she was also excited when learning more about my profile and knew the team could help me submit a compelling application.By the time I started my interviews, I was confident in myself, which helped me translate that into an admit

Guillermo was amazing to work with. He was very knowledgeable about the mba application process and gave great advice as I was deciding where to apply and while building my application. He truly helped me create a story that was coherent and truly defined me as a person and candidate. I was able to get acceptance to my first choice (Stern PT), even with a bit of low work experience (1.5 yrs).He was very structured, accommodating, and genuine. Guillermo used a structured format to build my story and progress through the MBA application and essays.Additionally, he was very accommodating of my time and my working style. This allowed me to genuinely provide my input rather than having everything done for me, which showed in my application.
