MBAandBeyond

As I was applying to top business schools, I was looking for a person who had in-depth knowledge of the schools and one who can showcase my fit in the program. The biggest hurdle for me was to overcome my weak International experience, a so-called “must-have” for admission in business schools. Out of 7-8 consultants I talked to, Shantanu was the only person who said these schools are looking for a person who can fit in their diverse cultures than the one with just wide global experience. His strong knowledge of the programs and quality of advice drove me to associate with him/seek his services.

Shantanu had this unique process where he identifies the candidate’s unique personality traits and helps build the application around it. He pushed me with his unlimited questions to find out specific anecdotes in my life where I showcased those traits. Once identified he helped me craft my story so as to deliver the maximum impact.

I found Shantanu to be very quick to respond, honest, and knowledgable. I especially found Shantanu very skillful and patient with helping me prepare for mock interviews. Even after our first mock interview, I felt so much more prepared and knowledgeable about how to convey certain stories and how to speak confidently.

Shantanu was far better than other consultants I’ve seen my friends and workmates rely on. He dug deep underneath the surface, remembered critical details about me, and really pushed me to produce great content. I can 100% vouch for Shantanu and especially recommend him if you are applying to M7

It was a transformational journey. I never knew I have so much of content hidden within me but MBA and Beyond helped me surfaced up all the relevant anecdotes. The application process where I have to invite 3 of my close friends for feedback on me was a game changer. MBA&B not only collected content from me but from my friends as well. If I have to do my applications again, I will hire MBA&B again and strongly recommend them for Application Consulting.
