Neha is NOT a typical admissions consultant. I can’t stress this enough to prospective B-School applicants. From the very first conversation, she has been an amazing mentor, thought partner, and most importantly a ‘motivator’ through my application journey. Applying to Business School is an extremely grueling process – involving many months of soul searching and personal reflection, countless drafts of essays writing and gearing up for those 30-60 minute interviews that pose the final hurdle to the gates of the dream MBA. Neha’s unique, personalized and structured approach helped me navigate through each step of the process with extreme confidence. With her guidance, I was able to not only articulate my experiences and aspirations in an effective manner but also apply to all my target schools without any last minute panic! Sharing my application journey with Neha has been a great experience and she has undoubtedly played a critical role in my successful admits. Thanks a ton Neha! I’m heading to my dream school this fall and I look forward to having you as a friend and sounding board even in the years to come.

You don’t stand a chance”.

India’s top-ranked P&Q-rated consultant told me as I expressed my desire to apply to GSB.

I was dejectedbut not delusional, I knew my chanceswere limited but not 0.
A consultant in the industryrecommended Neha. This was the first time I heard one top- rated consultant saying such great things about another. I was intrigued.

During my first conversation with Neha, I learnt why.
Neha also knew my chanceswere slim but instead of changing our destination, she adjusted the sails and taught me how to steer.

The journey is the reward, and it truly was for me. Exploring events from my early childhood days till the presentation I made to my team yesterday, and taking a 30K ft view of it helped me understand myselfbetter. This elevatedself-awareness has helped me address my biases and challenges better.

Neha is not just another consultant; she is a true coach
MBA admissions is a very draining process;make sure you pick the right partner;make sure you pick a coach and not a consultant

Working with Neha was a transformational experience for me. She is an exceptional guide. Our sessions together were open-ended explorations of my past experiences and future aspirations, aided by Neha’s patient, non-judgmental, and insightful prompts and interventions. Throughout our time working together, Neha made me feel comfortable enough to explore the topics that made me feel most vulnerable. She helped me articulate my own journey and goals in a manner that deeply resonated with me. After helping me know myself in a much deeper way, she provided timely, specific, and impactful guidance on how I can craft my applications and prepare for interviews to most effectively bring out who I was and what motivated me to university admissions committees. Neha helped me develop an application that was mine and mine alone and true to who I was, even if it may not have conformed to common wisdom about what was the most ‘strategic’ way to present one’s candidacy.

I am deeply grateful to have had the chance to work with Neha. She helped me embark on a journey of self-discovery that was and will remain its own reward, regardless of the admissions outcomes I achieved. I am so grateful for her support and plan to continue seeking her guidance for years to come!

In my MBA journey, Neha was not just my consultant, but also my friend, mentor, and biggest cheerleader. She guided me through the various anxieties that arise throughout the process, always without judgment. Every conversation with her left me feeling energized, and working alongside Neha transformed the entire application process into something enjoyable and exciting with many possibilities.

We delved deep into my story, which allowed me to see myself in a new light! Her emphasis on uncovering and showcasing what makes me unique felt genuine and authentic, and boosted my confidence in my applications. Working with Neha went beyond merely applying to an MBA program; she focused on shaping me into a well- rounded individual. With her help, I was able to clearly articulate my goals, passions, and what motivates me. Moreover, she generously shared her extensive network and recommended relevant resources to help me deepen my interests and expertise. Her creativity in crafting essays and preparing for interviews enabled me to present my story in a compelling and concise manner. She consistently pushed me, ardently believing in me, especially when I did not so myself.

Furthermore, Neha doesn’t chase brand names; instead, she focuses on finding the school that aligns best with your personality and personal and professional aspirations. I am immensely grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Neha, and I cannot recommend her enough.

Thank you so much, Neha for all the guidance and support! While starting my applications, I could not have asked for a stronger coach. Because of the Seven Hats approach, I could carefully reflect upon my background and experiences and stitch them together into an essay that I loved and felt super confident about.

In most of our conversations, Neha amazed me by how much she understood me and my future aspirations. While juggling between multiple versions through my hectic work schedule, Neha had genuinely made the effort to understand my story and I personally feel that made a lot of difference.

Throughout the applications, that can get stressful at many times, Neha had my back and always helped me to anchor on to what was truly important. I felt like I am not alone in this – I have Neha on my team! Yet, In her calm and ‘I have got it all covered’ way – she would be honest in her review and never settle for anything that is less than what she thought my application was capable of. She went out of her way to coach me for the interview, or absolutely any other part of the application as well. Thanks to her, I got an admit to HBS, and I would strongly recommend her to all aspirants!

Neha has been an amazing mentor through the application process for me-no less at a time when she was expecting a baby herself. She took the time out to repeatedly edit my essays, mentor me, be patient with me even when I was stubborn or wrong-and never refrained from speaking the truth. I have had a relatively long and very successful career in Private Equity, but she helped me go back to basics and really view my experiences in the right context-separating false pride from true achievements and helped me understand my strengths and weaknesses so I could begin to work on both. Her resilience comes from the way she bounced back a mere month after delivering her baby to help me with my Columbia interviews. Always professional and kind-her ideas, thoughts and inspiration made all the difference. I am a different person now than when I started with Seven Hats. And I owe it all to her unique philosophy and genuine passion for mentoring.

It really is a monumental task to apply for an MBA in US. The sheer volume of unique requirements for multiple schools seems overwhelming, but if you can choose 1 person to help you along the way, I would say, pick Neha. For me, working with Neha has set new standards on what it means to have a coach.Neha has been with me every step of the way – she kept faith in me despitemy low GMAT scores – she stuck with me through my countless requests for interview mocks. Neha gave me the confidence to not only shoot for the moon but also conquer it.
What you need to know about Neha is that,

Neha doesn’t come in with a pre-determined picture of who you might be. She respects that you’ve lived a unique life, tries to understands it and then take it from there to help craft the perfect story to represent your best self to various adcoms.

To show how much dedication Neha puts with every student,2 instances come to my mind, Starting earlier gave us the benefit of finishing couple applications by May. But even after that, she revisited our earlier work, found that we could make it stronger. I can’t evendescribe how many versions of editing we went throughsince we craftedmultiple essays twice. She will not stop until something is authentic and perfect, and does not run by the clock in terms of what she has to offer you. She will put things through fire, and ensure you come out the other side as a winner. I received interviews from all the schools (HBS, GSB, Columbia, Wharton, Kellogg), was finally waitlisted and HBS and GSB and will be heading to Columbia with a US$100,000 scholarship! Her process starts with a deep understanding of what makes you you. I was surprised that Neha remembered these situations much later in the process,even though I forgot about them, to help craft the optimal response for the interviews. Neha is a wonderful coach who would believe in you more than you currently do yourself, and I wholeheartedly recommend her for anyone looking to pursue higher education

Before choosing a consultant, I had done an elaborate exercise, probably speaking to all the consultants that exist. For every consultant I considered workingwith, I spoke to atleast 5 students who had worked with them – including those who didn’t get their desired outcome. Everyonewho had workedwith Neha in the past had the same thing to say about her – she is like no other – and now at the end of this journey I can truly appreciate why.

She starts the process by helping you understand yourself better, finally clawing deep inside you to create a storyline that will be so unique to you, and yet so real. I am not exaggerating one bit when I say she is an extremely intelligent individual, and having her on my side was truly game changer for me. Her selfless passion to help me succeed, even when it meant spending more time with me, was what made all the difference in my result.

The time she puts in upfront getting to know you, also makes her an insightful and empathetic interview coach. She put her heart and soul in helping me prepare for the final lap of the HBS interview – playing the role of a coach, friend, teacher and a true well- wisher – helping me overcome my insecurities, nervousness and sometimes even imperfect professional knowledge.

Finally, be ready for some strict feedback, which you betterlearn to appreciate, for your own good 🙂

Neha is a true partner in this process, forcing you to challenge established notions of your understanding of your own story, and your understanding of what it really takes to get into a top MBA program. You will not just go through the process methodically with her to achieve your objectives, but be forced to think about areas of your life that you thought were purely yours, and not ones that could be shared to build a narrative of a sense of self through the process. She has not only helped me secure admits, but find my voice, and find my story. I will carry this power through my life into my future. There are not many people who come along in your life genuinely interested in the tucked away corners of your life, and gets you to love your own story. She is one of those rare gems. You will change your life by working with her.

Working with Neha was an absolute pleasure! Her expertise and dedication truly set her apart. From our initial conversations to the final application submissions, she guided me through every step of the process with unparalleled support and insight. She demonstrated a deep understanding of the nuances of each program I was applying to and provided tailored advice that maximized my chances of success. Her attention to detail was exceptional.

What I appreciated most was Neha’s genuine investment in my success. She took the time to understand my unique background, aspirations, and strengths, crafting a compelling narrative that truly showcased my potential to admissions committees. She went beyond her role as an advisor to provide holistic mentorship, encouraging and counseling me every step of the way.

I wholeheartedly recommend Neha to anyone seeking support in their admissions journey. Her commitment to excellence and personalized approach make her a standout choice in the field. Thank you, Neha, for your invaluable assistance and unwavering support!
