I picked Nirvan as my consultant after our first chat during a profile review. He was super patient, answering all my questions, big or small, boosting my confidence for the application. What made him stand out? His solid knowledge about deferred MBA programs, which not many consultants had.
Nirvan was crystal clear in guiding me through multiple college applications, all while I was juggling GMAT prep. I couldn't have managed to submit multiple applications within two months without his extensive experience and round-the-clock support.
He helped shape compelling essays and narratives for my applications, landing me interviews at four schools. Nirvan's approach to mock interviews was a game-changer—he offered unlimited sessions and gave honest feedback that truly improved my performance.
His deep expertise and dedication were key in securing my spot at CBS, my dream school. I'd recommend Nirvan to anyone eyeing MBA programs, especially deferred ones, for top-notch guidance from start to finish.

Heartfelt Gratitude for Nirvan, an Outstanding MBA Application Consultant
Let me tell you about my incredible journey with Nirvan (Applicant X) – a true game-changer in my MBA application process! Right from the get-go, I was impressed with his straight-to-the-point approach. His spot-on and detailed insights into each section of my profile made choosing him a no-brainer for me.
Nirvan's dedication was next level – always there for me, even during odd hours, ensuring my applications were top-notch and timely without sacrificing quality. Talk about commitment!
But what truly was inspirational was his personalized touch. He didn't just treat me like another client; he understood my goals, priorities, and fears, crafting a strategy tailor-made for me. And let's not forget the endless essay revisions. Nirvan possesses extensive expertise in essays and provides precise guidance on what admission teams seek in a specific essay. I can vouch for this, as I consistently received the same advice from admission teams during various event discussions.
When it came to interviews, Nirvan was my rock. Numerous mock interviews and detailed feedback boosted my confidence like nothing else. And his guidance didn't stop at applications; he even helped me navigate college selection and scholarship opportunities.
Thanks to Nirvan, I have offers from the majority of my dream colleges - HEC | IESE | ISB
In a nutshell, Nirvan didn't just guide me through the MBA application process; he became my mentor, and my friend guiding me through the MBA application process. His expertise and unwavering support have left an indelible mark on my journey, and for that, I'm forever grateful.
I wholeheartedly recommend Nirvan to anyone who is seeking guidance/ support on their MBA application journey. The very first profile evaluation call with him will confirm his structured and to-the-point approach
Happy to connect and answer any particular questions over DM
Cheers,

My experience with Nirvan can be summarized in one word: "Excellent." Coming from a typical IT background, I encountered stiff competition from my peers during my MBA journey. Despite having a GMAT score of 730, I faced rejections from 5 out of 6 universities I applied to for early bird admissions. This was surprising, as I believed I should have been able to secure a spot in at least one of the top 50 ranked universities in the USA.
Realizing that my essays failed to reflect my true passion for the program, I decided to reapply for round 3, this time with a different consultancy. That's when I was introduced to Applicant X. Initially, when Nirvan reached out to me, I simply hoped to secure a spot in any of the top 50 universities, given the limited admission slots available for round 3. However, Nirvan had different ideas. After thoroughly reviewing my profile, he recommended that I aim for the top 25. He meticulously reviewed my previous essays and promptly identified areas for improvement to strengthen my narrative.
Although I was initially skeptical, I decided to take a leap of faith and aimed for the top 25 universities. I applied to three universities, including Georgetown, UNC, and Rice. Our first priority was refining my story. Thanks to Nirvan's proactive involvement in the process, I quickly managed to solidify my narrative. Despite juggling work and the application process simultaneously, Nirvan dedicated his weekends to ensure we met deadlines, even when my essays were incomplete.
The interview phase was another eye-opener. Despite considering myself proficient in communication skills, Nirvan's mock interviews revealed the significance of small details and their impact on interview outcomes. Through repeated mock interviews, Nirvan bolstered my confidence, enabling me to give my best during the actual interviews.
After a few weeks of anticipation, I received the long-awaited call from my dream school, Georgetown University. I was ecstatic, as I had never imagined I would achieve this feat. Upon reflection, I realized that although the core of my story remained unchanged throughout both application attempts, Nirvan's expertise lay in translating my story into a language that resonated with the university's values and preferences.
In conclusion, my experience with Nirvan was truly outstanding, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to any future applicants. Cheers!
