  • The Keystone To My MBA Successes
    1 year ago
    If you’re considering working with a consultant for the MBA application process, Christina is a stellar choice that you will not regret. I worked with Christina on an hourly basis and received admit to CBS, Wharton, and Harvard. At the start of the application process, I had completed my GMAT and was acquainting myself with the different requirements for each school. I was naïve, thinking that I’d be able to tackle the process myself using a self-guided MBA application platform. After speaking with current students and alumni, I found that most of the students used a consultant and began seeking one out for myself. During my intro call with Christina, I immediately noticed the difference between her and other consultants. Christina was honest and direct; ...

  • Outstanding Mentor - Christina Exceeded My Expectations!
    3 years ago
    Christina went above and beyond and was an incredible mentor during the MBA process. She's creative, funny, extremely knowledgeable, and puts her heart into everything she does. Christina helped me define my long-term goals and pushed me to create colorful and compelling essays. We had several productive brainstorming sessions which were invaluable in formulating unique and authentic MBA applications. Balancing work and MBA applications is challenging but Christina and I created a realistic timeline to keep me on track and organized. In addition, Christina's mock interviews and guidance were instrumental in my MBA interview success. I could not have asked for a better editor, resource, and friend in the MBA process. I received admission to my first choice school (NYU Stern) as well ...

  • TL;DR - Christina Is The Ultimate Mentor, Coach, Confidant, and Friend
    3 years ago
    Friend, mentor, confidant, coach—these are all nouns that describe Christina, and the ordering is intentional. Coming from an overrepresented applicant pool (white/male/finance w/ a non-target undergrad -> banking -> PE resume), I was very nervous about my chances of getting into a top-5 MBA program. After talking with multiple potential consultants and hearing a similar spiel from each, I had no clear sense of my candidacy, and worse, no idea who could actually help me navigate this process. Enter Christina. During our hour-long intro call, Christina showed genuine interest in my candidacy by asking specific questions about my accomplishments, career decisions, and life experiences that have shaped my world view. She listened to my story, highlighted the obstacles I would need to overcome without holding ...

  • Christina Fu - Highly Recommend
    4 years ago
    Summary: I highly recommend working with Christina and have already recommended her to friends and colleagues alike. She is top notch in terms of both skill and effort, and will give everything in helping you do your best in the MBA process. She truly cares about her clients and I believe wants you to succeed irrespective of her own results as a consultant (though her track record is very strong). I worked with Christina from MBA Prep and feel very fortunate to have had her guidance throughout this process. Before selecting Christina I spoke with consultants from three popular MBA consulting groups and was deciding between working with Christina and another consultant but ended up going with Christina as I felt she believed in my candidacy ...

  • The Absolute Best
    4 years ago
    Christina is second-to-none when it comes to MBA consultants –she's a fantastic consultant and an even better person, mentor, and professional encourager. If you're considering using an MBA consultant, I would be remiss to not sing Christina's highest praises. She was instrumental in guiding me through the application process and helping me achieve the outcomes that I was fortunate to receive. She will push you, but it is well worth it. I approached the MBA process with some element of anxiety – I was switching jobs after a two-year program (from finance to corporate finance/strategy) and came from an over-represented background (white male in finance, undergraduate business degree) with median GPA and GMAT per the top schools that I was targeting. I had spoken with several ...

  • Christina Is As Good As It Gets - Working With Her Made The Difference
    4 years ago
    If you take anything from this review, it should be that Christina is an incredible consultant, and in my mind, she’s as good as it gets. I can not recommend her strongly enough! Going into the MBA process I was very nervous, as it is somewhat rare for employees to leave my company for an MBA. Therefore, I knew that if I applied and asked my supervisors for recommendations, I had to get into a program in case there were negative consequences at work. On top of that, I knew that I was in a crowded category as a white male in finance, meaning it would be difficult for me to get into a top MBA program. Christina was extremely honest and transparent with me from ...

  • Accepted to Cambridge with Multiple Scholarships with Christina
    6 years ago
    Christina was consistently amazing throughout the application process! Her feedback was very detailed, thoughtful and done in a way that makes the essays easy to update. With her help I was accepted to Cambridge Judge (my top choice) and even received multiple scholarships. Can't recommend her enough!
