    A Reminder: Answer the Question

    People always ask: How do I make myself stand out in an MBA application?  I have three words of advice: Answer the questions.  Advice so simple it barely seems worth mentioning. At a recent school panel, a Yale School of Management admissions officer underscored just…

  • Hoop Dreams and the March Madness of Admissions

    Waiting to get admitted is enough to drive a person mad. So mad, that it’s a wonder that the admissions process didn’t grab the name “March Madness” before college basketball did. The expression goes back to 1939, but it has only been used in relation…

  • Researching MBA Programs: Finding the Right Fit

    Believe it or not, all business schools are not alike. They each have their own personalities, including their own strengths and weaknesses. Even assuming you could get into every program (why not?) not every place will be just right for  you. Just like in job-hunting,…

  • A Treasury of MBA WaitList Strategies and Resources

    Quite a few of you are trying now to figure out what to do while hanging out on the waitlist for your top-choice MBA program. It’s a tough position, and I prefer the Wharton model, which doesn’t allow you to add anything. It is so…

What People Are Saying

I once told Betsy she is "amazeballs", well, because I believe she is. Betsy was both a mentor and a friend and helped me to continue to have faith in myself throughout the overwhelming process of MBA applications. She helped me explore my school options and put me in touch with people who could offer additional guidance. Because she took the time to really get to know me, Betsy helped me present my strongest self throughout my essays and was a large factor in my getting accepted to my top choice.

M Michigan Ross

Betsy has a gift! Working with her I actually enjoyed the application process. I wouldn't have gotten in without Betsy's help.

M Harvard Business School

Betsy! I miss you! Seriously, your lessons are relevant to every assignment and essay I have written in the last year. I owe you a debt of gratitude.

A UC Berkeley Haas December 27, 2017

I would strongly suggest working with Betsy if you are looking for one-on-one attention, especially if you have a finance background or international experience. She took a very holistic approach to the process, was really interested in talking me through my highs and lows up to this point and true gut feel for why this school/why MBA. I did not have a very straightforward story (lay offs, international moves, liberal arts major with only ok GPA) and my GMAT was not stellar, but I feel that I was able to put my best foot forward in this cycle with Betsy's guidance.

Thank you for helping me put in the best application I could. And now I'm Hanover-bound --time to upgrade my winter wardrobe!
