Shruti is a great mentor and subject matter expert for the ISB applications. Her experience and guidance have been pivotal during entire application process. I am grateful to Shruti for helping me convert ISB.
Shruti was a great help for mock interviews. The Goalisb online platform with sample WAT topics is a great resource. Would recommend for a structured approach to IIM interview preparation. 👍👍
I am incredibly grateful to Goalisb, Sruthi Ma’am and Vinayak Sir, for their unwavering support and guidance throughout my IIM admission journey. Their availability, structured approach, and continuous feedback played a crucial role in helping me secure admission to both IIM Kozhikode and IIM Bangalore.
The mock interviews and honest, insightful opinions they provided not only refined my responses but also significantly boosted my confidence. Their mentorship made a huge difference in my preparation, and I truly appreciate their dedication and expertise.
I highly recommend Goalisb to anyone looking for personalized and effective guidance in their MBA admissions journey.

I had the privilege of working with Shruti during my MBAEx admission journey, and I can confidently say that her guidance was instrumental in my success. After achieving my desired GMAT score, I sought her expertise for SOP writing and mock interview preparation. Shruti’s brutally honest feedback, combined with her deep understanding of the admissions process, helped me refine my application to perfection.
Her ability to pinpoint areas of improvement, challenge my perspectives, and push me beyond my comfort zone made all the difference. Every mock interview with her was a reality check, ensuring I was fully prepared for the real thing. She didn’t just provide advice—she empowered me with the right mindset and strategy to present my best self.

I took help Shruti maam and Vinayak sir for my application and interview journey.They guided me very well in the process, clearing my doubts and apprehensions regarding the process and what is to be expected from the mba at this stage of my career. They were open for questions and were friendly in explaining things…I found their help very vital in securing my mba admission in IIM LUCKNOW IPMX…I will recommend them as MBA admission consultant and mentor.
Shruti and Vinayak provided a personal touch to my preparation, helping me stand out, in my interviews. I am happy with my decision to go with GOALISB to help me accomplish my goals of cracking IIM-MBA. Shruti’s inputs helped in crafting an effective profile and Vinayak supported in helping me develop confidence before the interviews by having multiple mocks and covering all possible line of questioning.
I highly recommend Shruti as an exceptional MBA admissions counselor. She guided me through every stage of the application process, taking the time to understand my background, goals, and aspirations. Always patient and accessible, she addressed all my concerns, making the journey seamless.
Her insightful feedback on my essays helped me craft compelling narratives, while her rigorous mock interviews refined my communication skills and boosted my confidence. She also helped me rediscover and align my personal stories with my career vision, easing my application anxiety with her prompt and thoughtful responses.
Beyond applications, her mentorship provided valuable clarity in my broader professional decisions. Her structured approach and dedication made all the difference. Thanks to her support, I secured admission to my dream school. I wholeheartedly recommend GoalISB to anyone looking for not just an admissions consultant but a true mentor committed to their success.
Shruti ma’am is an excellent consultant for any candidate who is starting their MBA application journey.
Barring the vast experience she already has in this field, her emotional intelligence and practical outlook in the college selection process allowed me to apply to the set of colleges I was interested in, at the same time she helped me align with realistic expectations which is necessary in this process.
Secondly, she is an enabler who helps candidates once they are stuck. Ma’am pushes you to self reflect and elaborate upon your own stories, encourages you to do your own research for career options and helps you build a compelling narrative that is authentic to your journey. Her feedback on essays was detailed and insightful, pushing me to dig deeper into my experiences while keeping the content relevant and impactful.
With her guidance, I successfully secured admission to IIM-A’s PGPX program. What sets her apart is her commitment to each candidate’s success – she was always available to address my concerns and provided timely, constructive feedback throughout the application process.
I would strongly recommend Shruti ma’am to any MBA aspirant. Her structured approach, combined with her ability to understand each candidate’s unique strengths, makes her an invaluable partner in the MBA application journey.
I want to thank GoalisB for all the support and guidance throughout my journey of MBA application process. It is because of the personal interaction that I’ve had with the GoalisB that helped me reach this far and out of my comfort zone to achieve the much awaited breakthrough. You guys have been there to guide me every time I lagged behind. The mock interviews have helped me regain the confidence when I needed it most to crack the interviews. Thanks for keeping me motivated and aware about throughout the rigorous journey.
Ms. Shruti is incredibly skilled at identifying a candidate’s weak areas and addresses them spot-on. I worked with her after my initial unsuccessful interviews before succeeding in getting an admission from IIM Lucknow. Over the 3 sessions, she skillfully identified and helped me overcome my shortcomings. I totally recommend her for serious MBA candidates.
I joined Goal ISB on December 1, 2024, with the application deadlines looming on December 3 and December 9. With barely any time in hand, I was in a state of panic. However, the Goal ISB team provided invaluable support, helping me complete my application on time with precision and clarity.
Despite my own doubts, I deeply appreciate both Vinayak Sir and Shruti Ma’am for their continuous guidance throughout this journey. Given the short timeline, I participated in 3-4 mock interviews with the team, which turned out to be instrumental. When I finally faced my B-school interviews, I realized they were almost exact replicas of the mocks we had practiced.
Shruti Ma’am helped me see where I truly stood in the process, while Sir constantly motivated me, ensuring I maintained my confidence. Their support made all the difference, and I am truly grateful for their mentorship. Vinayak sir was never a mentor. He guided like an elder brother who can understand my situation and guide accordingly.
Only regret I feel is I couldn’t join the program early which could have refined me much better. Any suggestion will be to join GOAL ISB at least 3 months before the applicant
My experience with Shruti Ma’am and her colleague at GOALisB has been incredibly enriching. Ma’am played a pivotal role in helping me reflect on my past experiences and structure them thoughtfully, which resulted in the creation of a strong Statement of Purpose (SOP). Her feedback was always honest and realistic, giving practical advice instead of an overly positive or unrealistic view. She provided constructive criticism that was both valuable and actionable. Additionally, the mock interviews with both Ma’am and Sir were incredibly helpful in refining my responses and boosting my confidence. Overall, it was a truly valuable experience that I highly recommend.
My partnership with GoalisB has been decisive in my quest to secure an admit in the Indian Ivy League MBA programs.
I underestimated the entire application process by going solo during my earlier attempts .Although I managed to receive interview invites, unfavourable results made me introspect hard.
It was not an easy task to zero in on a particular consultant, yet something clicked from the very first interaction I had with Shruti ma’am and I am happy that I made the right decision.
Not only did Shruti ma’am and Vinayak sir make sure that they understood every nuance of my profile, they were always approachable for any & every concern that I had while also charting an application strategy tailored to my case.
I ended up receiving multiple admits from various IIM’s and the end result couldn’t have been any better.
This will definitely change the course of my career chart and the GoalisB team helped we develop that winning edge.
Thank you so much Shruti ma’am and Vinayak sir.
Shruti is one of the smartest and most pragmatic people I have met. She is optimistic and at the same time very realistic. I still remember the time when I first had a discussion with her, I was a bit underconfident as I felt I didn’t have anything to showcase to Adcom. And that’s where Shruti helped me. She unearthed the gems in my profile with ease and gave me the confidence required to crack the MBA application and interview. She kept her patience even when I troubled her with silly questions and gave me the necessary ammunition to fight the battle.
I highly recommend her if anyone wants a trusted companion in their MBA journey.
I had the pleasure of working with Shruti Ma’am for my IIM Ahmedabad’s PGPX interview preparation, and I couldn’t have asked for better guidance.
Shruti Ma’am helped me refine my responses to the more commonly asked questions and, more importantly, worked with me to effectively communicate my story, strengths, and fit for the program. What stood out most was their no-nonsense, straightforward and constructive feedback after each mock interview session.
The mock interviews were incredibly realistic, challenging, and invaluable, which helped me prepare comprehensively, ultimately acing IIM Ahmedabad’s much-dreaded PGPX interview.
When I began my MBA application process, I felt completely out of my depth and did not know where to start. Then Shruti came along. Her deep knowledge and genuine care changed a process that once scared me into something I could handle. She answered all my questions promptly, no matter how simple they were, and her advice proved invaluable. She helped me revise my essays and set up mock interview sessions. Even after I turned in my applications, Shruti continued to support me with school selection and career counseling. I put my best foot forward every step of the way, and I owe it all to her. She truly cares about the people she works with.
I had an excellent experience working with Shruti Mam for my MBA applications. Her strategic insights, personalized guidance and attention to detail helped me craft compelling essays and present my profile effectively. She was always responsive, supportive, and instrumental in my success. I highly recommend GoalisB to anyone looking for expert MBA admissions consulting!
For starting my application for ISB, I asked for help from Shruti madam. Although I was very apprehensive about getting an admit from ISB with my niche role, Shruti madam evaluated my profile in detail and she was very honest about how to approach the admission process, my weak areas and how to work on my essays. She is an excellent mentor and knows which are the strong points to bring out when crafting an admission essay. She was always available for a call whenever I had any doubt regarding the admission form. After multiple iterations and discussions with her, I finally managed to finish my essays well before Round-1 deadline. And finally, I was selected in the Round-1 for ISB PGP. As an admission consultant, she is a great mentor, honest, helpful and always available. I wish her all the best for the future and may she continue to keep guiding students like us to achieve their dreams. Thank you Shruti madam.
I want to thank you for all your help throughout the MBA application process. You were always available to answer my questions and provided clear guidance when I needed it most. Your support kept me motivated and on track, and I really appreciated your honesty and advice. Thanks for making the process smoother couldn’t have done it without you.
Shruti Ma’am from the Goalisb team was instrumental in my MBA application journey. Her sharp insights, extensive brainstorming, and patient guidance helped me gain clarity on my goals and craft compelling essays. What sets her apart is her ability to help you tell your own authentic story—she doesn’t write your essays but helps transform your ideas into impactful narratives.
Her constant availability and unwavering support gave me the confidence to excel, and I’m proud to have secured admission to the ISB PGP Co’26 batch with a scholarship. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking expert MBA application guidance.
Shruti Ma’am and her colleague at GOALisB turned out to be the right coach and mentors I was looking for in my MBA application journey. They were approachable anytime for even your smallest doubt and were very aware with respect to what is needed for a sound application and SOP. Not only this, the mock interviews and its stress test element was very close to what I faced in reality. Anytime my recommendation would be for GOALisB.
Shruti ma’am is just flawless, not for a moment I felt miserable and lost. She was available 24*7, always super prompt in her response. She would give detailed feedback on every pointer raised. I don’t think my MBA journey would be this smooth without her guidance.
Their hands-on approach and personalised attention made all the difference in my MBA admissions journey. The process and questionnaire helped me gain a deep understanding of my unique professional background and aspirations, helping me articulate my story in a compelling and authentic manner.
What truly stood out was their ability to mentor me through complex decision-making processes, bringing clarity and thoughtfulness to every step. Beyond application guidance, they helped me navigate my broader professional journey, providing perspectives that were instrumental in shaping my long-term vision. Their dedication, accessibility, and genuine commitment to my success made this experience incredibly enriching.
I recommend GoalISB anyone seeking not just an admissions guide but a true mentor for both personal and professional growth.
There are many consultant who will offer you an MBA consultation where you just need to sit back and they’ll write essays for you, SOPs, they’ll file your application etc. but you’ll regret this decision during the interview. Here in Goalisb: you and your consultant will work together to write essays, and how to get to know yourself better after brain storming sessions. Shruti mam is very good at finding what you are looking for and of course Vinayak sir interview mock sessions would be added value to your interviews. I have be admitted to IIM Indore EPGP with the help of Goalisb, I believe you can too.
I had a great experience working with Shruti ma’am and Vinayak sir from GoalISB for my ISB Co’26 application. Their responsiveness was unparalleled—I received instant answers to even the smallest of queries, making the process smooth and stress-free. Their in-depth knowledge of B-schools, specifically ISB and IIM-A PGPX, was invaluable. They tactfully guided me in tailoring my essays and interview prep with very college-specific insights.
What truly stood out was their attention to detail—Shruti ma’am identified subtle gaps in my profile and helped me address them. Also, the comprehensive materials and questionnaires provided by GoalISB not only covered every aspect of my profile but also empowered me to approach the process with confidence. They didn’t just do the work for me; they equipped me to excel.
Shruti ma’am helped me secure two offers (admits) for the upcoming one year MBA programs (IIML and IIMI). She helped me with not only the application process and interviews but also with post admit queries that I had. An amazing mentor. Highly recommended
Reflecting on my MBA application journey, I had the aspiration to pursue my studies at ISB but wasn’t certain how to make it a reality. I then interacted with Shruti Ma’am from the Goalisb team. Her upfront and crisp demeanor, coupled with an inexhaustible set of brainstorming questions, made all the difference. Through her guidance, I gained a 360-degree perspective on my goals, motivation, and skills. Despite the skepticism surrounding a techie’s chances at ISB, Shruti Ma’am highlighted the transferable skills from my tech background to an MBA setting, empowering me to craft compelling essays and interviews. Her support, including mock interviews, instilled confidence in me, and today, as an admit to the ISB PGP CO’25 batch, I cannot express enough gratitude for her invaluable guidance. Thank you, Shruti Ma’am, for helping me achieve my dream.
Mam’s guidance regarding proper introspection and a step by step guide for properly preparing the answers had been extremely helpful. The mock interviews helped me to highlight and improve my areas of weaknesses and the recordings acted as a great tool to work on rephrasing the answers. The entire feedback would be very comprehensive and detailed. Highly recommended.
Mam is phenomenal. She is passionate, patient, kind and very approachable. She entertained every silly concern and was extremely supportive in every stage of the process. She is master of her art and made my dream of walking in the corridors of Oxford a reality. Thank you Ma’m.
I strongly recommend Shruti as an exceptional MBA admissions counsellor. She has played a pivotal role in guiding me through the entire MBA application process. She took the time to understand my academic background, professional goals, and personal aspirations. She was always a call away and was very patient while addressing hundreds of my queries. With respect to essays- she offered insightful feedback and editorial support on my application essays, helping me craft compellin narratives that effectively showcased my strengths and aspirations. With respect to interview preparation- she conducted mock interviews, providing valuable feedback on my communication skills and responses to potential interview questions. Thanks to her help and support, I was able to secure admission to my target college!
I would highly recommend Shruti Mam for the MBA consultancy services. She is one of the main reasons I have got an admit into ISB in my first attempt. She is supportive and highly dedicated to her work; always motivated me to stay in the present and give my best. Absolutely thankful to her for all the efforts she gave in to my application.
I worked with Shruti for my ISB and IIM A application. She was able to help me rediscover my stories and help me choose the ones that aligned with my career vision. Her prompt replies with insightful comments helped me ease some application anxiety. She goes the extra mile to help with the application and tries to answer even the silly questions, a very commendable act. Her helpful insights along with a little nudge helped me piece together a great application.
Shruti Parashar is a consultant who came with tremendous insight into the admission processes for the two programs that I applied to – PGPX@IIMA and PGP@ISB. She gives to-the- point and well directed advice to improvise on the essays as well as the interview preparation. Most importantly, this guidance comes from a place of immense experience with candidates from multiple domains and industries. She can hence evaluate a profile with extensive knowledge and wisdom, and bring out factors which the candidate herself may fail to see. As a professional who came from an extremely niche domain, I was clueless regarding what to do about my application before I got in touch with her. She worked extensively to help me understand my profession story with an all round perspective. She encouraged me to write my essays myself. She has been available all the time and even post my admits to guide and assist in various ways. She truly invests in the individual, she motivates and guides with immense optimism. Would recommend this consultant and nobody else for the MBA admissions journey.!
For a person with an MBA within the past 3 years, applying again for a top-tier MBA would be hard to explain, and thinking about ISB was already an impossible challenge to deal with.
And that is when I reached out to some people to help me deal with this challenge and that is how I reached Shruti Ma’am.
Her first words when I explained my case were “Yes, very much possible”!
The thorough understanding of my profile that she tries to attain throughout the application process was something truly remarkable I must say. Because that is what makes you give your best shot. Her research methods, innovative thought process, and constant guidance helped me perfectly align my application with what the school wants. One unique quality about Shruti Ma’am is her patience. That really stands out as every student will be already stressed about his candidacy. She was always just a ping away in getting my doubts clarified.
Most importantly, the honest feedback that I received made me see the loopholes that I was missing out on while writing the essays and I cannot explain how many times I had to re-edit the essays to get the final version ready. Also, during the mock interviews, she made me ready to face the hardest question “Why Second MBA”, which truly makes or breaks your case.
I just cannot thank Shruti Ma’am enough for her constant and immediate support. I wish to take this opportunity to express my gratitude towards her, who has been my great mentor and friend since day one and has been instrumental in not only my application but also my overall career development.
With the attention that I received, I felt that I was interacting with my elder sister rather than with a consultant. I think that’s what mattered in the last and I successfully made it into the ISB PGP Co’25 batch and I highly recommend Shruti Ma’am/GoalISB for someone who wants to make the cut into top B-Schools.
Coming from a PSU, I did not know where to start with my to B-schools. Right from my first conversation with Shruti, she did not mince words and gave me her honest feedback about the strengths and weaknesses in my profile. She made it clear that she would help but that I would have to put in the hard work. What I liked the most about her was that she was always available and accommodated with my time constraints. She helped me to strategically use my experiences in writing compelling applications which helped me get shortlisted in all of my targeted B-schools.
She thoroughly studied my profile and her insights were on point and critical to my interview prep. Mock interview sessions with her ensured that I was well prepared for the interviews and it showed when I got successful admits from IIM C and ISB. Even after the admission offers, she helped me choose the right B-School for me and is now guiding me through pre-MBA prep.
I can easily say that onboarding with Shruti was one of the best decisions I made in my MBA application journey.
After my GMAT, my wife was researching consultants to help in my MBA application and interview process. She went through many before zeroing in on GOALisB. As someone who had a few undesirables in his career profile, I was worried as to how well any consultant could help me. My first conversation with Shruti really put me at ease and gave me confidence. One thing I would like to state is that at GOALisB, they genuinely want their students to get their respective b-school admits and it’s not just a business for them. They don’t follow a formulaic approach but instead tailor the process based on the person. As someone who really began applying at the very last minute, I am grateful to Shruti for her help in perfecting my essays and applications. The mock interviews by Vinayak sir and their inputs on what works and what doesn’t prepared me well during my journey. Shruti and vinayak sir were also available at all times, not just to answer any queries, but also to give encouragement before the interviews. As someone from the public sector, with some below average academics and with over 12 years of work experience applying in R3, I know my profile wasn’t the easiest to work with. I sought to apply for only IIMs, I managed to be shortlisted for 4/5 schools and was able to convert IIM Lucknow. Thank you GOALisB
I had availed GOALisB’s services after reading a lot of positive reviews, and I can confidently say that all the reviews were correct. I have received admission to IIM A PGPX programme – one of the top MBA programs in my country.
I had prepared simple essays for my target B-schools. GOALisB helped me make them more impactful. I created multiple drafts based on multiple inputs, and my final draft was impactful and able to get my points across well. I was able to show clearly why an MBA was important for me.
My weakness was the interview. I had difficulty getting my points across in the interview, and GOALisB certainly helped me with it. They provided me with multiple questionnaires and personality tests to help me build a good foundation for the interview. I had multiple mock interviews, and they gave me a lot of confidence. The interview prep helped me clarify my journey and its presentation. I was so confident that I was able to answer the questions that I had not prepared for. I certainly recommend GOALisB for MBA Admission Consultancy.
I got to know about GoalisB and Shruti ma’am through a friend of mine, so I decided to get in touch with her.
I belong to Merchant Navy, so I did not have a lot of knowledge about the application process and since my gmat was not the very good, I was reluctant to try for ISB. Shruti ma’am gave me confidence in the first call itself, saying gmat is now done and we need to focus on the application, also mentioning that there is never a guarantee for admissions. Her honesty gave me confidence to go ahead with her and it was the best decision I could have made.
My application prep started with our questionnaires and brain storming sessions, where she took the pain to know my profile and understand me and my goals. It was always very comfortable to talk to her as she always responded very quickly to all queries and was direct in her approach, even though I had poor internet connection and was in different time zones regularly. During my introspection and our conversations, she helped me identify the weaknesses and aspects of myself I did not fully realise before, and eventually we started working on the essays.
She reviewed my essays thoroughly multiple times and suggested the areas which I was lacking in. She guided me to write the essay to portray my actual story. A story which was true to myself, but one which I could have never conveyed.
After shortlist for the interview, we had multiple mock interviews where she gave proper feedbacks on my answers and made me rethink and polish them. She never said no to the amount of interviews we could have and finally I got my admit to ISB Co’25.
I would happily recommend GoalisB and Shruti ma’am to anyone trying for an MBA admission because of her professionalism and her direct approach.
Shruti Ma’am is the best MBA Application consultant one could wish to work with. Her process of identifying my strengths and weaknesses aided me in understanding myself better and in working around those to deliver a successful application. Her assistance throughout my application journey from our first call to getting admitted to my dream school has been phenomenal and worth all the time and effort one needs to put in. Shruti Ma’am went above and beyond my expectations during the mock interviews by asking questions that hadn’t even crossed my mind, and that ultimately prepared me well for D-day! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for MBA admission assistance as her overall process and her determination to wring out the winner in an applicant will deliver fruitful results.
