Scott Edinburgh

I started with Scott a month out from the final deadline for my dream program and, despite the short timeframe, we were able to put together a solid application, ace the interview, and get in. It wasn’t easy, but if you’re serious about getting into the best MBA program you can it would be silly to go at it alone. The investment in your future is worth it.

I have been a Round 2 Wharton applicant for its prestigious full-time MBA program for the class of 2021. With a 720 on the GMAT, I thought my chances of getting into Wharton would be highly bleak. But I didn’t want to let go off the possibility of being admitted to Wharton and hold a regret throughout my life of not trying. To my surprise, I received an interview call and without any delay, I started preparing for the Team-Based Discussion and 10 min personal interview. That’s when I came in touch with Scott. Scott helped me navigate the unusual interview format, including the TBD. Realizing that I would need practice for the TBD, I enrolled in one mock TBD session with personal MBA coach. The session was extremely helpful and I requested for another session. Although all upcoming sessions were fully booked, Scott made an exception and helped me enroll in one the same night. Thanking the services of Personalmbacoach, I went for my TBD and PI. I believe I did fairly well, and through my preparation, I was in much better shape than I would have been had I not opted for the services. I remember receiving a lot of feedback after my mock TBD sessions from the trainer. I wish I had come across Personal MBA coach in the early start of my applications. Nevertheless, I would strongly recommend Personal MBA coach for their interview services. I have been waitlisted to the program, and hopefully (fingers crossed) I can still make it from here.

I engaged with Scott quite last minute for a US Top 5 program. Previous to working with him, I was already invited for interviews at several Top 5 schools, but got dinged post-interview. Scott was quick to identify the missing gaps and provide extremely thorough and individualized feedback on my application.

In addition, his turnaround time for polishing and editing my materials was very timely. He never did the work for me but provided valuable insights that were customized to what the target school was looking for. I also appreciated that his feedback was brutally honest, without any BS.

In my opinion, what you need from an MBA consultant isn’t someone who will write your essays, but one that truly spends time to understand where you come from and give you honest & customized feedback that won’t waste your time.

I recommend Scott wholeheartedly!

Scott brings incredible insights into each step of the application process thanks to his career in the industry. He just gets it. I evaluated both large and independent consultants prior to applying, and each gave me the standard, sugar-coated feedback on application strengths and positioning my story. Scott provided a customized and tailored approach, was available through text and email each step of the way, and ultimately, navigated me to my dream school with a substantial scholarship. Can’t recommend him, his team, and his services enough.

I have no words to express how grateful I am for all the guidance and support that Scott provided during the MBA application process. I was admitted into 4 out of 8 MBA programs I applied to and received full scholarship to the one most dear to my heart. My experience with Scott was absolutely invaluable and I know I would not have been able to succeed without him. He was there for me every step of the way. From the first moment I talked to Scott, it was obvious that he truly cares about me and was fully vested in my success. I wholeheartedly recommend Scott to anyone who is looking for an MBA consultant. I could have not asked for a better coach. Thank you Scott!

I am currently a college senior. I’ve worked with Scott to apply for 6 MBA programs that have early admission/ deferral program. Now I have been accepted to one school and waiting for results on others. For the school I’ve been accepted, I also got half tuition which totally paid off the consultancy fees. I have to say that it has been a wonderful experience working with Scott.

I’ve chatted with over 10 consultancies before deciding on who to work with. It was only until I was able to meet Scott in person when I traveled to Boson that I decided to work with him.

Throughout the application process, he played a pivotal role. First of all, since I am a younger applicant, I was essentially writing on my goals after 4 years (2 years of deferral period and then 2 years of MBA). Scott was able to help me sort out all my possible options and evaluate which one works the best. It was more than writing an essay but more like helping me to sort out my life. He could help me to explore all career options because he himself graduated from Wharton and have had a wide range of industry background. He was extremely patient and would hop on a call with me when necessary.

Second, Scott has been very flexible in coordinating with my schedule. I’ve been flying within U.S., to U.K, and to China throughout the couple of months. Sometimes due to work/school situations, my responses were delayed. However, Scott always provides a new edit within 2 days. When the deadline is close, he would help me do one draft a day for a couple of essays. For a lot of the essays, he would push me to dive deeper into what I wanted to express. There were some essays that we had over 10 drafts.

Third, he also gave me a lot of help on interviews. Since I haven’t done interviews for a while and English is also not my first language, Scott gave me extra interview help by scheduling mock interviews for me to practice with some schools’ ex-interviewers.

It was awesome working with Scott and I would totally recommend anyone who is considering going to MBA.

Scott helped me with 9 individual applications this year. He is hands down the reason behind the multiple acceptances I received from the top 7 B-schools including a full-ride offer from a top ivy. He provides an extremely professional service and works one-on-one to perfect every facet of your application. When you hire Scott, you get his undivided attention throughout the entire process. He is an extremely gifted and talented individual who I can confidently say is the absolute best in the business. Thank you Scott for all your help. I couldn’t have done it without you!

After researching and having phone calls with several consultants, I choose Scott to support me with my application. I could not have made a better choice!

Scott cares about your applications. He is highly responsive in addressing questions, queries, and concerns. He makes sure to always have enough time for you, and follows up with you to make sure you’re on-track.

Scott also has significant experience. That means he understands how you as a person can shine and be different. His experience makes a difference in letting you be unique and stand out from the competition.

Scott empowered me to understand how to write my own essay that showcased who I was using my own words. As someone from a background that does not traditionally apply to business school, Scott really helped me understand how the business school admissions process and how to manage the challenges.

Having been admitted to a top 10 school, I know that Scott made a difference. You can’t go wrong choosing Scott!

I worked with Scott this past application cycle and it’s been an exceptional experience! From understanding my story to identifying my strengths and weaknesses, Scott has been an asset throughout the application process. We went through 15+ rounds of edits between 4 schools with average turnaround times of 2-3 days. After applying and being admitted to 3/4 schools, Scott continues to be a resource in helping to make sure I’m thinking through the pros and cons of each program as I make a final decision.

Tldr; Scott and his team have been great to work with. Overall great pricing, quick turnaround times, and personalized packages.

Scott is a true professional and knows the college admissions process inside out. He was a tremendous help in getting me into Booth-EMBA and is currently helping me with my applications to EMBA Programs at Columbia, MIT, and Stern. He is highly responsive, gives fantastic tips, and advice. He is even available on weekends and is very flexible with time scheduling. I highly recommend Scott for EMBA applicants.
