Just completed the Gmat and got 710.
Am 34 years old with 12 exp as senior manager in an Indian IT company. Trying to find the right mba consultant to help me with my application (only a very strong person can help me get in at this age :-( )

How do I find the right person? Everyone in craigslist and other websites say the same thing, "we are the best", "we create strong application for you" etc.

Since it involves a lot of money, how do I know that I am spending the money on the right person. Please advice. I would prefer to do a one year course. Perhaps Insead or Columbia or Oxford or Cambridge etc.

First of all, is it even feasible to get in at this age. Or are my chances very low?

Hi,

The key to finding the right admissions consultant is to speak to several and see which one "fits." You should be able to schedule phone calls with admissions counselors at many different consultancies and discuss your candidacy, the programs that fit with your needs, as well as your strengths and weaknesses. You'll know you've found the right consultant when you speak with them.
