Which MBA Consultant did you choose?

by apurohit » Wed Sep 03, 2008 10:46 am
I just wanted an opinion from people who have used services of any MBA consultant.
I can see that there are three major choices Stacy, Veritas and Kaplan.
Which one did you choose and how did it work out for you?
Is it worth the money spent?
All seem to offer the same services at around the same price.

I think you have to find out by your self. There is not a single path from point A to B. All of the MBA consultant companies are in this business because they help people and they have customers.

Morpheus: This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill - you go to the Business School and they show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.

So ? Choose at your own risk! :wink:

I would like to suggest another "major choice": Accepted.com. We've been helping clients get accepted to all the top schools since 1994.

Even if you don't use our services, check out the web site. You'll find many MBA admissions resources: articles, chats with MBA admissions directors, ecourses, the MBA Interview Feedback Database.

Best,
Linda Abraham
