If you seriously want to get into a top business school, consider Adam’s admission consulting service. He is a fantastic person, personally and professionally. I have worked with other consultants but nobody could beat Adam’s knowledge and dedication. I would not have been accepted to my top choice of school had I not work with Adam throughout the process.
Adam sets himself apart from other consultants because of several reasons.
a) Dedicated to his client’s success
Since the beginning, Adam has shown his dedication to ensure I get into the school that I wanted. His objective was to ensure that you be admitted to your top choice of school rather than trying to maximize the billable hours. Occasionally, we chatted about non-admission related topic for 10-15 minutes. Unlike many other consultants, Adam didn’t charge those hours. He charged only the time spent to discuss admission related topic. He is fair and highly professional. He’s not driven by money, but rather by his client’s success.
b) Wealth of knowledge and experience – since 2001
Adam has been helping people get in to the top business schools around the world since 2001. Imagine how much knowledge he accumulated throughout the process. Adam knows what type of candidate is usually accepted by school x. Thus, he knows how to strategically position you in the application.
c) Highly ethical
Never expect Adam to do your entire application. He doesn’t write your essays. He is a highly ethical admission consultant and I highly respect him. Rather than writing your essays, Adam looks at your profile, extracts as much information about you as possible, and helps you decide the best strategy to position yourself through essays. Adam also only helps with content revision, thus preserving your writing style.
d) Flexible
Adam was very responsive throughout the process. I remember I sent my essay for review and he got back to me within an hour. Isn’t that amazing? Most of the time, Adam is always available to chat and he never misses an appointment. I worked with a consultant who was terrible with time. I’m glad I found Adam. He was very dedicated to my success and it felt like I was his VIP client.
e) Great personality
Adam is a very likable person. He has a good sense of humor and great to work with. He knows what he’s talking about and yet he doesn’t have any attitude. In short, he’s a great consultant. I guarantee you that you’ll love working with him.
f) Strong network
Adam maintains a strong network in the industry, such as with MBA admission directors and MBA alumni. For example, when I practiced for my interview, Adam helped solicit advice from an alumnus who happened to be interviewed by the same person. It was very helpful to have this insight directly from someone who already met the interviewer in person.
g) Direct and honest
I respect a person who is honest and can give me a straight answer when I ask a question. When I gave him my school choices, he immediately told me what my weakness was and what that meant to my chances of getting admitted. I remember he said that with my GMAT score at the time, I would have a slim chance of getting admitted into my top choice of school. He advised me to retake the GMAT and I followed his advice. I guess he was right: I got into my top choice of school.
h) International knowledge
Adam has been successful helping not only US applicants, but also international applicants. With his many years of experience, it seems that Adam maintains his own “best practices” to position an international applicant in the MBA application. You should know that not all consultants have this kind of expertise. Positioning an international applicant is different from a US applicant.
I don’t recommend using admission-consulting firms that employ many consultants, because each consultant provides a different level of service and many of them treat this as a part-time job to make some cash on the side. Obviously their websites talk about great things about their service, but the truth is that it comes down to the very person you are working with. If you are lucky, you may be matched with a good consultant. Otherwise, you’ll end up wasting your money with a mediocre consultant. If you pay for Adam’s consulting service, you know for sure that you will be working with someone who already helped hundreds of people getting in to the top programs. And this is his full-time job. Why take a risk going with a bigger consulting firm while you don’t know whom you will be matched with? The bottom line is: If you seriously want to get into the top MBA program, consider hiring Adam to assist you with your admission strategy because Adam is the BEST admission consultant out there.
