Personal MBA Coach Reviews & Ratings 2026

Thank you, Scott and Team. They did a great job solidifying my story and developing my reason for attending an MBA program. The team provided actionable advice for my essays, applications, and interviews. Scott continued to support me while navigating the waitlist process and answer my endless questions. I was ultimately able to get off the waitlist and accepted to one of my top programs. Highly recommend.

Scott and his team provided a very structured approach for my MBA applications. This allowed me to create a effective material which included all pertinent talking points the AdCom for the respective schools are looking for.  Furthermore, he and his team were very flexible and always reachable.   I got admission to two M10 schools along with scholarship offers. One of the scholarship offers was tied to topics I included in my essays which I may have omitted if not for the PeresonalMBA team's suggestion of said topic's pertinence.

Scott and his team are truly talented. The Personal MBA Coach team and a lead editor worked on my content for one school (NYU Stern), which I was accepted into! Scott was professional, easy to work with, and turned around the essay I sent to his team quickly (

I got accepted into the Deferred Enrollment Program at CBS, and I have The Personal MBA Coach Team and Scott to thank for this. They helped connect my experiences and accomplishments to my future goals and portray it in an apt manner to the Adcoms. They are upfront about their feedback and only had my success in mind throughout the process. Innumerable rounds of review does not bother them. The interview prep is also spot on and extremely helpful to a nervous interviewee like myself. Without them, I don't think I would get into any deferred MBA program. I would strongly recommend them to any potential candidate.

I couldn't be more grateful for all the help with Scott and his team. Since the beginning of the journey they were there for me side by side, answering all the questions I had and helping me throughout the applications. The personal MBA coach team helped me unlock my potential to write state-of-the-art essays and pursue my MBA goals in the school I wanted to attend. With no doubt I want to give a HIGH recommendation for this amazing group of professionals that not only cares about doing a good job but also makes sure that you are comfortable and happy with your work. If you are looking to give a boost to your application, I have no doubt that Personal MBA Coach are the ones you need to hire.

I worked with Scott to apply to both Wharton and Haas EMBA programs. His thorough approach, approachable attitude, and personalized guidance helped me get into Haas! This would not have been possible without him! Scott was very patient from the beginning to end and advised me every step of the way on EA test prep, recommendation letters, essays and interview. His guidance was extremely useful and MJ's interview prep sessions helped me a lot as they gave me the confidence to interview well. I highly recommend Scott and MJ for any and all of the top business school applications and interview prep.

I had an all-around great experience working with Scott and the entire Personal MBA Coach team and highly recommend them to anyone else. To start, Scott and his team really took the time to understand why I wanted an MBA and helped me narrow down schools to the ones that fit well with my short and long-term goals. They truly understand the ins and outs of the MBA application process and made sure that I was on time and prepared for each part of the application process for each school. They helped me craft a personal mission statement and provided me with consistent resume, essay, and interview prep and feedback. Throughout the entire application process, they continually made me feel supported, motivated, and organized and were incredibly easy to work with and understanding. They even went above and beyond to help me navigate a tough waitlist situation over several months, helping me drive communication both with the school, alumni, and other resources. At the end of the day, I got interviews for every school I applied to and was accepted into all of those where I went through the interviews. A huge thank you to Scott and his team for all their help I highly recommend them to anyone looking to start (or for any point during) the MBA application process.

I met Scott 3 years ago at an MBA fair in Paris. I decided to work with him for my round 2 applications and called him pretty late in the process. I was worried about my low GPA, my age and the price tag. From the initial meeting, Scott gave me non-sugarcoated advice about my candidacy. Working with The Scott’s team was amazing. The team is highly professional. There were a lot of exchanges and I was pushed to think deeply on my career goals and the meaning of every bit of sentences in my application documents. Be prepared to be challenged on that part. Towards the end of the preparation, the team checked how I felt about my work. I was very proud of the quality of my application! The interview prep was great too. I was asked the same questions I was asked during my real interviews (shout out to Nicole and Jacqueline!).  I applied to 2 US schools (CBS and Booth) and 1 European school, got admitted at both the US schools with scholarships and haven’t received the European’s school response yet but I am pretty sure It will be a “yes”.  All in one, this outcome would never have been possible without Scott and his amazing team (I know it for sure since I applied round 1 with another consultant on an hourly basis and looking back, I can confidently say that I messed these applications up).  Calling Scott was the best decision I made next year! Thank you, Scott and the Personal MBA Coach team for this outcome!

Working with Scott is a well-oiled machine. Scott is extremely knowledgeable about different schools and has connections at various programs. He also makes himself available to discuss any concerns over the phone on short notice, and is very responsive over email. He delivers very honest feedback about essays and candidacy, and does not sugarcoat. I really appreciated that he sticks to his 2-day turnaround times for essay edits. Sometimes I got to 5 or 6 versions of essays. Throughout the process, Scott was helpful and kind without losing his honesty. Scott made this very stressful process a lot more bearable for me. Thanks, Scott!

I worked with Personal MBA Coach and it was an incredible experience. The BEST consultant and his team!!! Don't hesitate a single second!!! 100% outstanding and recommended!! The whole team is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. With experience in the Middle East and Europe, I was successful in my applications to multiple M7 deferred MBA programs. Personal MBA Coach provided me with structured guidance and tools to prepare for interviews, applications and jobs. The team is always available (7 days/week 24 hours) and very committed to helping you and answering all of your questions. There is a dedicated expert one Personal MBA Coach consultant SCOTT that shapes the overall experience when you work with them, yet Personal MBA Coach broader team has former M7 adcom experts when needed (Nicole was incredible). When I had doubts about my abilities, the whole team motivated me and encouraged me so much! Personal MBA Coach brought the best out of me and challenged me to continuously reassess and reflect on myself so that I can convey my true self when applying. With extensive experience and expertise, the team is so professional, genuine, detailed and authentic when providing advice on how to improve. Thank you!! I highly recommend Personal MBA Coach to anyone thinking of applying to an MBA!!

I worked with Scott and MJ on the Wharton interview process. They were able to simulate the real thing as closely as possible, and offered very detailed feedback on how my performance in the interview was, and gave me actionable steps to work on. I noticed a significant improvement in my interviewing after going through this process, and I sincerely appreciate the professionalism that they portrayed in continuing to answer my questions. Highly recommend!

I was referred to Scott by a friend who applied in the 2020 cycle and got admitted to an M7. Right from my first "getting to know you" session, Scott was very direct and honest about my candidacy and MBA prospects, which I really appreciated. I did not have the best scores on paper, but Scott and the team pushed beyond that. The team helped me carve out and perfect my story and resume to show that I was more than just the sum of my numbers. The team helped me identify certain anecdotes from my life and helped me turn them into cases for competency in business school. There is a certain way to craft business school essays, and the PMC team knows exactly what it is and what specific schools are looking for. The whole process was so smooth and well planned that I completed all my applications well before the deadlines.  After countless essay reviews, one on one calls and emails, the team also assisted me with interview prep and gave valuable feedback, ensuring that I was in peak performance.   While I initially had concerns about the price tag, I am ultimately glad I did it. I highly recommend Scott and the Personal MBA Coach team!

I had an excellent experience working with Scott, MJ and Nicole. From my initial phone call, Scott was direct, informed and honest. He helped me craft a target list of schools to suit my ability and background. Though he is at every step supportive, he’s unusual in that his feedback is consistently candid. He does not sugarcoat. In a process as nebulous as MBA applications, this was much appreciated. I knew the minimum score I needed to hit on my GMAT and how I needed to position myself for each school.  Once you begin preparing for interviews, you’ll meet MJ and Nicole, who are best-in-class. They bring incredible experience and can walk you through exactly what to expect at every school on your list. Not to mention they’re wonderful people, kind and encouraging.   I was accepted to 3 of my 5 schools, receiving scholarships at two. I came into the process not knowing how to succeed. Thankfully, the entire PMC team made sure I was prepared throughout. They want you to win and will put in the time necessary to make sure you do.

I worked with Scott and his team for my MBA applications this year. I had a great experience and have received offers from the Kellogg MBAi program, and full-time MBA programs at Haas, Ross and Tepper.  It was great working with the team. I felt that their understanding of what different schools are looking for is extremely thorough. We started out by shortlisting the schools that would be best aligned to my goals and experience. We then worked on my goal statement, and CV, before moving on to the recommendations and essays.  The process was very detailed yet we moved fast. We did several iterations on each element till we were satisfied. The platform used to collaborate on these materials was very streamlined. I would always receive feedback within a day. In fact with the time difference, I would put in my drafts late night IST and receive feedback by the time I woke up!  Overall, I had a great experience and would highly recommend Personal MBA coach.

I was referred to Scott by a friend of mine who applied for her MBA the previous year and praised his personalized approach and proven tactics for admission to the M7. Scott and his team absolutely exceeded expectations. From my first "getting to know you" session, to countless essay revisions, and frequent one-on-one phone calls with Scott himself answering my every question (big and small!), Scott truly puts the "personal" touch in Personal MBA Coach. I was admitted to all 4 schools I applied to (including 3 M7 schools) with the help of Scott and his dedicated, talented team. Could not recommend more!

I really enjoyed working with Scott and the personal MBA Coach team and can genuinely say that they added a lot of value to my essays. I saw my essays take shape through the iterations and was amazed at how specific and contextual every sentence had gotten. The process of working with the team was very smooth from start to finish and the team was really responsive throughout. I highly recommend working with the Personal MBA Coach team if you'd like to improve your chances of getting into a top b-school. I managed to get into an M7 school with their help!

I truly believe that I would not have had the same outcome had it not been for Scott and the Personal MBA Coach team! When looking for a consultant, I had initial calls with a lot of companies. Personal MBA Coach stood out to me because of its boutique nature – I knew once I spoke to Scott that I would really get that one-on-one focus that I didn’t feel I would have with others. From the start, Scott and the team were honest with setting expectations yet dedicated to helping me maximize my chances at my target schools. Besides helping me craft my story and making sure I stayed on top of important timelines, Personal MBA Coach really asked the hard questions and helped me through the really introspective part of the application process. Additionally, they were willing to answer any question - big or small - in a very timely manner. I'm very excited to be attending an M7 school next year and I have Scott and the PMC team to thank for that!

The people at PMC were a crucial asset in my MBA application process. As a civil engineer, I was worried that my professional background would hinder me during the application process, but the advisors at PMC helped me turn it into an asset. PMC helped me put together a cohesive application that told an effective story to my target programs. I would highly recommend PMC to any professionals interested in pursuing an MBA. I especially appreciated their flexibility with my busy work schedule and my GMAT tutoring sessions, which I believe were fundamental to my score.

My first interaction with Scott was the initial consultation call that we had. During this discussion, it was clear to me that I was in experienced and safe hands. I also understood that any suggestions/feedback I'd receive from the team would be direct, honest and likely not sugar coated. This appealed to me and I immediately committed to working with them. I believe that Scott and the Personal MBA Coach team made all the difference in me securing an admission to my desired business school.  Right from the moment I got on board, the process was seamless and fast-paced. The fact that the team checked in on me to ensure pace whenever I delayed is a big positive. I was very impressed by the promptness with which I received edits on my essays and found that these edits prodded me in the right direction, ultimately allowing me to submit my best essay. I must commend the team's dedication to ensuring my success as they worked through some very tight deadlines on multiple occasions, for which I'm extremely grateful!!

I couldn’t have made it to my dream school, MIT Sloan, without Scott and his team's timely support and guidance. The team was super responsive and to the point with their questions, prompts and edits. This allowed me to iterate through my ideas and bring relevant information into my essays. The entire process gave me clarity of thought, helped me identify my strengths and even made me a better writer by the end of it.  I am soo glad that I had the Personal MBA Coach team by my side, and I couldn’t recommend them more. It is one of the best decisions that I made to reach my goal.
