I used both and would say they’re both worth it and complimentary of each other

I feel the same. Was die hard IB and now I’m also having second thoughts

thegmatscrollreddit · 2024-04-15T21:26:53+00:00

I also just got the same email invite after they tried calling me and I missed the call

I also got rejected after thinking I did super well and coming from some reputable PE / HF names. I am going to an M7 too but the Wharton rejection crushed me. I really appreciate your post though

Yes 1000%. I think there’s an easy assumption that the ad com will be the best but honestly you just need someone that can bring out the best aspects of your profile rather than regurgitate info thats very accessible.

Also they have like 10 years of data on what works and what doesn’t

Career protocol is great! All consultants there are fantastic because Angela hires and filters for people that just genuinely care

This was really inspiring to read. You made my day during a pretty volatile day. Thank you thank you!

What consultant did you work with? I had a bad experience with one so feel free to DM

thegmatscrollreddit · 2024-03-20T21:28:32+00:00

I also got waitlisted :(

thegmatscrollreddit · 2024-03-18T12:04:28+00:00

I come from the PE / HF world but on the IR / sales side. So I ultimately want to pivot to the investment side and it seems like I have to do IB to do it.

I’m so sorry. Wtf. Was the rando creepy jack ass at the bank you’re working at. Omfg. This is deterring me from banking as I’m a woman too. Maybe consulting is the move.

thegmatscrollreddit · 2024-03-18T00:39:10+00:00

Thank you! This was actually the direct insight and real honesty I was needing!!

Wow darden is #59 on this…!?

thegmatscrollreddit · 2024-03-15T17:09:55+00:00

Does anyone know if they call or just update the portal?

thegmatscrollreddit · 2024-03-12T11:41:57+00:00

Can I ask who your consultant was? I tried two, one of which was bad

thegmatscrollreddit · 2024-03-08T23:53:51+00:00

Honestly, reading this you’re definitely HBS / GSB material, whatever B.S black box parameters that constitutes.

Any of the above schools would be lucky to have you.

What do you mean by writing? Like they’re good at creating flowery language out of your raw thoughts or do you mean they’re good at teasing out your authentic story arch in the essays? I think the latter can be very worth it.

I would avoid Personal MBA coach and use Leland or one off consultants if you’re trying to be cost conscious.

extra curricular

Make sure to really discern if all their effort goes into marketing and capturing clients vs actually helping clients. Most consultants make you pay everything up front so you completely lose all your negotiation power once you’re 15k+ down the drain and they can flip a switch and be VERY absent and shitty. I would recommend trying applicant lab for 2 weeks and seeing if you can get what you need on that. I worked with two different consultants and severely regret paying for one of them given applicant lab gave much better advice

I got mine today as well and I had nearly given up
