I reached out to Neha after hearing a very positive review from a friend who had worked with her and had been offered a seat in both HBS & Wharton. I spoke to a bunch of consultants and concluded that her approach of systematically trying to understand my story in detail without retro-fitting stereotypical frameworks would work best for me and was lucky to just make it within time as she was about to close registrations for MBA 2020 round 1 application.

Neha is simply amazing. I had first reached out to her a few years back for a full time MBA but had then dropped the idea in lieu of a great work opportunity coming up. And then a few years later when I thought of going for an Executive Education program I reached out to her. And this was at the end of December! She being a true and genuine mentor helped me understand

“WE ARE GOING TO PUSH YOU OVER THE LINE THIS YEAR”
These were the words I heard from Neha when I shared with her my responses to her thoughtfully-crafted “Getting to know you” questionnaire. As a reapplicant to the top business schools in the world, her words became my ray of hope and yes, she indeed helped me realize my dream!

Neha was the only consultant I spoke to before embarking on the process for MBA admissions. While I had heard positive reviews from close friends who had been accepted to HBS, my first conversation with her strongly reaffirmed my thoughts- her focus was not on force fitting frameworks or solely defining potential as per traditional schools of thought, it was on whether I will be able to introspect and navigate the process through an authentic lens.
