Touchdown! | MBA Admissions Consultants

AJ’s insight into the entire MBA experience and post-MBA opportunity was a major factor in my decision to leave China and pursue a full-time MBA in the US. He was uniquely able to see my non-traditional strengths in the context of what would make me successful in the application process and beyond. Applying from a second-tier city in China, I wouldn’t have had the access to test prep guidance, interview preparation, or application support without his service. I made it into a few top schools. I applied to my current school solely on his strong recommendation, and have enjoyed every part of the experience beyond what I dared to hope for.

I’m so fortunate to have AJ as my consultant while applying for business schools. He has a very deep understanding about what kind of candidates each top MBA program is looking for and will guide you to find the programs that fit you most. I always tend to write my essays way over the word limit. AJ has the \”magic\” to help me figure out what matters most, cut the useless parts, and carve a raw stone to a master piece. Haha, he is the best \”word killer\” I have ever seen. Also, AJ knows both western culture and eastern culture well. That’s extremely helpful when you are a Chinese student that applies for US or European business schools. AJ is always very energetic, informative, responsive and humorous. I always feel enlightened and delighted talking with him. I would highly recommend his service to everyone that is chasing their dreaming schools:) 感觉很幸运能够找到AJ成为我MBA申请顾问。AJ十分了解各个顶尖MBA项目所看重的学生素质，在整个申请过程，他能够十分耐心地帮助你选出最适合你性格特点，个人经历以及未来职业发展需求的MBA项目。我在攥写文书的过程中，往往容易写的过长，AJ总能引导我把握住最核心的东西，删减掉冗余的部分，把一块璞玉打造成一块大师级作品。AJ对中西方文化有着深刻的理解，这点对于一个中国学生申请美国或欧洲的顶尖MBA项目很有帮助。另外，AJ本身也是一个充满活力，知识渊博，幽默而且反应特别迅速的人，跟他的交流总是很愉快，能受到很多启迪，并且让我学会更好地剖析自己。对于所有正在申请自己梦想中的MBA项目的朋友们，我非常推荐AJ的服务。

I worked very well with AJ. During the whole application process, he provided pertinent suggestions about choosing schools. He is also a serious and efficient consultant. Sometimes I finished the essays and sent to him very late in the midnight, but he replied me very soon with comments. In a word, I appreciate the help AJ and Touchdown offerred with my application very much! 和AJ的合作很愉快。整个申请过程中，他充分听取了我的想法，并结合他的经验，给我提供选校的建议。他是个认真且高效的人。有时我会半夜才写好文书发给他，他常常会及时将修改意见反馈给我。总之，非常感谢AJ和Touchdown在申请中对我的帮助！

I would like to thoroughly recommend AJ Warner and his company, Touchdown!, to American expats in China that are looking to attend business school in the United States or abroad. I came to AJ after two months of working with a very expensive admissions consultant from one of the leading firms in America. I literally got more out of my first hour-long meeting with AJ than in those entire two months combined. What makes AJ and his team so unique is that he understands China and the challenges of working in that environment. With that said, he was able to help me translate my China experiences and choose the most compelling stories to highlight in my admissions essays. He also helped me focus the way I spoke to my professional career progression and gave me the encouragement I needed to take intelligent risks that paid off handsomely. AJ provides a very personalized service, which is so refreshing when you compare it with the big-box admissions consulting services. He really invested in my success and made a huge impact in my admissions process, giving me the confidence and support I needed that other consultants couldn’t provide. I cannot recommend AJ and his company highly enough and believe that investing in their services will certainly pay off. -Will Solomon University of Michigan Stephen M.

First met AJ in Touchdown\’s Beijing office. AJ impressed me with his professionalism, resourcefulness, and deep industry know-how. Our meeting was extremely productive – I was able to gain a ton of great insights from AJ\’s years of experience. I decided to hire AJ as my MBA admission consultant before leaving the office. During the application process, AJ and I collaborated mostly online and over the phone. We also met in person several times when we could both find time in our busy schedule. Whole application process ran smoothly, thanks in large part to AJ\’s great experience and time management. I was admitted to several top-notch MBA programs. I would highly recommend AJ to anyone who need professional advise on your application package.
