“Amit is a gifted storyteller. He was able to artfully bring together my varied experiences and career goals to make a compelling case for the AdCom. His help in crafting a coherent story enabled me to put my best foot forward. His process very exhaustive, looking into every aspect of my background to cull out the best stories. Even his post-interview support was very through. He consistently pushed me to give my best and I’m glad he had my back through the process. With his guidance, I secured admit to every school I applied!”

“I reached out to Amit only a month before R3 applications, and despite knowing the challenges with respect to time, Amit took out the time to help me. As soon as we started, I had realized that he was very organized and had great research done with respect to all Tier-1 colleges. He patiently explained me the entire process, provided me with necessary details and also helped me build a work-plan on how to approach the applications. His essay review skills are superb and were really helpful. Also, the entire process that Amit has includes multiple discussions on career/life goals – all of which actually helped me gain more clarity on my aspirations and also helped me structure the same. Additionally, he was very approachable and whenever I had any doubts or needed some guidance he would get back to me very quickly. Knowing that I had Amit around to help and guide me whenever I was stuck felt like a luxury. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and a great learning experience for me as well.

The end result was that I got selected in all three business schools I had applied to. I would strongly recommend Amit to anyone who is seeking guidance on B-School applications.”

“I took Amit’s assistance in my GMAT verbal prep and b-school applications. On the GMAT front, I believe if you're looking for personalized advice based on your weaknesses, Amit is the go-to person. With his assistance, I was able to improve my verbal - and thus overall - score drastically!

When you’re applying to b-schools, I believe what’s most important is the support system that helps you realize who you are, what makes you unique, and how to bring that out. Amit masters this art. He will help you look deep into yourself, assisting you in finding your unique self. Additionally, he is always a call/message away whenever you need him, making the tiring application process easier.

I would strongly recommend Amit to anyone looking for professional, yet personalized, advice in their GMAT prep or b-school applications.

“Amit has been a critical pillar in my MBA application journey. Coming from a unique family office investing background, I was finding it tough to highlight suitable leadership and teamwork anecdotes. Amit helped cull out relevant instances from my background that we then used to build a strong, insightful narrative. He gave relevant examples that I could relate to and adopted a very structured approach to the entire daunting application process. At every step, he clearly laid out next steps with deliverables & timeline that kept me disciplined and ensured I submitted my applications on-time. Moreover, he went above and beyond in supporting me with interviews, scholarships and even pre-MBA internships after I got in. I would highly recommend working with Amit, especially if you’re coming from a unique non-traditional background.”

But Amit sir’s structured process ensured I applied to more schools than I sought out to. He was patient to understand my unique combination of experiences, both at work and outside, to craft a compelling narrative. Despite us being in different time zones, I in US and he in India, he was always available and very flexible in accommodating my requests. He was also very supportive in the schools I was applying on my own. What stood out for me was his guidance even in minute areas like structuring thank you notes post-interview or choosing pre-MBA internships. I highly recommend Amit sir’s support for anyone thinking of top-MBA programs”

“Amit’s support was critical for my applications. I was finding it hard to carve out relevant stories for essays. To help me think, Amit shared examples of applicants similar to my background. His structured process and timeline, kept me disciplined. He constantly motivated me throughout the application process so I could put my best foot forward for each school. On one occasion, when I was running behind schedule, he was flexible to prioritize my work even late at night. I remember, I’d chosen a wrong option for an application and realized my oversight only after submitting. Amit was quick to jump on the phone to calm my anxiety and suggested actionable remedial steps to take up with the Adcom. This helped correct my mistake.

I was applying with my partner and was worried we might end up in different schools or create competition for each other. I was impressed by Amit’s experience with partners. He managed both our applications extremely well, showcasing complimentary skills that allowed us to strengthen each other’s case. I would high recommend working with Amit — especially if you’re applying as partners”

“Amit was instrumental in my admit from Tuck. Being in Japan full-time, I was apprehensive of the time zone difference, ability to connect etc. Amit was very approachable — always just a message or call away. We spent several late nights fine-tuning my stories, shaping my essays and doing mock interviews. He was able to highlight my unique international technical exposure in a very distinctive way. I was applying with my partner and wanted a customized approach to both our applications. Amit was very understanding and flexible towards our needs, doing join sessions when needed, highlighting partner friendly schools and pragmatically sharing how each of us could put our best foot forward. I was elated when both of us received admits to our dream schools! He later also supported us with waitlist and deferral requests, even for schools outside the one’s we worked with him. If you’re an Indian residing internationally, are applying with your partner or come from a niche technical background — you’ll be in safe hands with Amit.”

Amit was able to craft an excellent career narrative that brought together all the pieces of my story. He highlighted some of my deepest vulnerabilities, giving a very authentic voice to my essays.

I highly recommend working with Amit, especially for diverse non-target backgrounds.”
