"Just wanted to let you know that I just got off the phone with Derrick, and have been offered a place in the class of 2007. Thanks again for your assistance, perspective, and advice throughout the wait-list process. Though many words come to mind, perhaps the best compliment I can give right now (being dead tired after a day-long flight) is that I would whole-heartedly recommend you to anyone who is beginning this process (and often wonder if my experience would have been different had I used you from the beginning).Thanks again."
--S.,California


"I have been just informed by the Kellogg's admission committee that I have been accepted. I really want to thank you for all the help I received from you. I now realize that it was definitely worth going through MBA Exchange."
--K., Illinois


"Good news. I got my 'unofficial' acceptance letter today on-line from Wharton. It's either my 2nd or 3rd choice (HBS still #1), but still happy with the result. Basically, everything from here on is purely upside. Thanks for your help and guidance."
--A., Singapore


"I got my MIT result today- I'm on the waiting list. Although I had hoped for a more positive response, I am not complaining at all. I believe that the essays really worked and have already impressed the AdComm. THANK YOU and everyone else in the MBA Exchange. Without your help, I strongly believe that I would not have gone this far on my own. Thank you for helping me turn this whole situation around."
--C., New York


"I would like you to know that I am extremely satisfied with your service, especially such quick turnarounds. I would definitely recommend you to my friends who intend to go through the ‘application hell’ next year."
--D., Hong Kong


"Got a ‘big package’ from Kellogg today - which means I am in! Gosh, I am a bit overwhelmed. So last year I came very close to bagging Kellogg coz I thought they would never accept me. Wow! You know I want to thank you profusely, right? Thanks again for your patience and confidence in me."
--E., Hong Kong


"Thanks again for all your help with the applications. Your input was extremely valuable and I would have no hesitation in recommending your company to anyone applying to business school."
--J., Switzerland


"So, some more good news and bad news. I got a rejection letter from Stanford. But… I got accepted to Cornell. Also, I got a $10,000 scholarship from Michigan. And I went up there this weekend for the prospective student weekend and had a great time. They have an excellent program, and I think that it is a really good fit for me. Thanks so much for getting me to apply there. I also got wait-listed at UCLA."
--J., New York


"Your help on USC and North Carolina was invaluable. I'm convinced that your help was a critical part of my acceptance to USC - I couldn't have done it without your help."
--R., California


"Just wanted to update you on my current status with replies from b-schools. Thanks again… Tuck - wait-list, Darden - accepted, Kellogg - accepted, Michigan - accepted and $5K per year scholarship, Haas (Berkeley) - accepted, UCLA - accepted, MIT - rejected."
--D., New York


"Thanks for all your help. I just heard from the Chicago GSB. I was accepted! With your assistance with Kellogg and Stanford, I feel confident about both schools. However, regardless of the outcome, I feel your service provided true value and would be willing to serve as a reference for your future clients."
--C., California


"I very much appreciate your frank and timely responses to my questions. Your continued willingness to address my points in detail, I believe, I an indicator of the quality of service that you and your associate provide."

"Thanks so so so much and I really really really appreciate your great work. Thanks a lot for your fast response again. I am extremely grateful with all your suggestions, ideas, edits, helps and everything you have provided to me in the past half a year. You have been such a great partner to work with. Many many many thanks! Million thanks for your magic editing skills in my MBA applications. I have finally got into my dream school (HBS) under your guidance."

"Admitted to Harvard today. Going to have a beer now."
--E., Illinois


"Once again, I must say that I am thoroughly impressed with the improvements you made to my essays. You were right when we met in Evanston when you said I would see some fireworks on the essays. Thanks a lot! Just wanted to say thanks for the great improvement that you made to my Michigan essays - truly amazing work.
Just wanted to pass on to you that I have been accepted to Michigan. I just received notification from them today. I have to thank you again for all the great help through this whole process. Your service has been awesome. Going into this with a 3.24 GPA, I didn't really believe that I would be accepted to both Michigan and Virginia. I have seen many others with better grades and test scores who were rejected by the same schools. Just wanted to let you know the news that I received Virginia's financial aid offer in the mail - they are offering me a $4K scholarship (renewable in the 2nd yr). Although it is lower than Michigan's $7,500 offer, my gut feeling is to go with Virginia. Thanks again for all your help!"
--B., Hawaii


"The interview went very well. Thanks for the prep. It really helped with my answers. I wanted to let you know that I was admitted to Wharton today. So my decision will be between UCLA and Wharton."
--P., California


"Just a further update to let you know that I was also accepted to the Lauder program at Wharton. I attended HBS Admit Day and have since been doing a lot of thinking about the options. I had decided to attend HBS but then received my admit materials from Wharton and they have offered me a US$30 000 scholarship. Thanks a lot for your insights - after much thought I have decided to attend HBS and am very excited."
--G., Australia


"I heard back from Wharton today and they have accepted me. Thanks for your advice. I just wanted to let you know that I have received notice that I have been accepted to HBS. I would like to thank you for all of your help in preparation for my application. This was my first choice school, and I appreciate all of your constructive feedback without which I am sure that I would have been at a disadvantage. Feel free to give me a call anytime or stop by if you are ever in the San Francisco area."
--W., New York


"I heard back from Wharton today and they have accepted me. Thanks for your advice."

"You have definitely made huge improvement on the essay. It's much more concise and powerful. I enjoy reading the changes you made. Good job!"
--J., Hong Kong


"Today I received an admission from NYU and a small amount in fellowship for the first academic year. The Duke interview went well. Most probably I should hear from MIT very soon. Thank you for your help and guidance during the application process."
--P., Massachusetts


"I look on you as a mentor, and advisor. Thank you for coming through for me !!! I really appreciate it. I feel privileged to be working with someone so exceptional!"

"I will definitely post good review about MBAEx on the (Princeton Review) forum and will recommend your services to others. I would like to thank you personally and people who work with you for the outstanding job. You are real professionals and know well what you are doing. Without you - it would be impossible to put together such strong packages.
I would like to say special Thank You to the people who helped me and made my application process less painful: MBA Exchange consultants. Without their help I would not be able to put together such high quality packages for top schools. I would highly recommend their services to the future applicants for several reasons: as opposed to the other services who concentrate mainly on the essays. MBA Exchange starts early with their clients by helping to find best positioning, selecting appropriate schools based on your qualifications, cultivating good relations with your recommenders, and preparing for the interviews. As for the essays… MBA Exchange will help you with crafting a plan for the essays and will look over them once they are completed. Quick response time was also very important factor, as I was trying to finish my packages in time for the deadlines. Also, it's going to cost less that most other services, like Sandy or Richard, whose price can be as steep as $250/hour. I am glad that I used MBA Exchange's services.
The Happiest Day In My Life!!!!!!!!!!!!! Our hard work finally paid off and my dream came true!!!!! I am in at Wharton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This morning I received an EMail from a first year student congratulating me on my admission.
The good news just keep coming!!!!! I just checked my e-mail this morning and found out that I was admitted to the University of Chicago GSB!!!! I think that anyone who is serious about his future, should research alternatives and choose the best, especially with such delicate issue as MBA admissions. I did my research and decided to use your services over other consultants. Looking at my results, I am glad that I worked with The MBA Exchange!"
--W., New York


" I'll definitely write my experience on the discussion board, the place where I first heard of your program. Let's keep in touch. Feel free to use me as a reference to your future client."
--Y., California


"I'll keep you updated about my career progress. I truly view you as a guru, a friend, and a colleague. I got into Wharton!!!!! I am just thrilled. My status change was posted today in the system, and you can only imagine how happy (I was) to see the letter begin with CONGRATULATIONS! I thank you for your time, and advice. I sincerely believe that the process and advice you provided to me were crucial. Thanks. I remember you saying that you remain involved in your client's decisions throughout the program. I would love that. I truly appreciate your input."
