Personalized, high quality service Mary was a phenomenal consultant and support throughout my MBA application process. From the initial consultation, she understood my background and connected with me on my challenges in a way few other consultants ever had! She developed a personalized strategy for me that inspired confidence in myself. She also provided valuable assistance in school selection, helping me focus my search and narrowing it down to 6 programs. She has an established process and her own structured frameworks that did an amazing job of distilling all my past experiences. She helped me take those results and formulate my personal story that was relevant and made sense for MBA application essays and interviews. Mary understands what the admissions committees look for and her advice was always spot on! She was always accessible and her communication is prompt. What stood out to me about Mary: – True, customized approach that was suitable for my application strategy – How well she understands Adcom members on the other side of the table – How invested she is in her clients. This level of care is reflected in her feedback and interactions: quality and detail-oriented from essay reviews to mock interviews – Her expertise not only on the major US programs but also on the European programs I was considering as well Mary is a consummate professional and her assistance was truly an end-to-end experience. I worked on 6 schools with her and I received Round 1 acceptances from 4 of them. Best investment I ever made. I am proud LBS MBA admit! I would enthusiastically recommend Mary and Inspira Futures to anyone.

Inspira brought out the best in me! Inspira brought out the best in me! I never thought I can come up with an application essay that good and answer the admission committee's questions like a pro. However, I made it to Kellogg, which had always been a dream. I just started school and it's every bit as awesome as I had expected it to be.

Couldn't have asked for more There was an army of folks working around my schedule. My coach stayed up till 11:30pm one evening because I got pulled into an important meeting at work. There were so many times she rescheduled our check-ins since my work schedule would keep changing. One of Inspira's adcom members provided feedback on my application on short notice since we were only a week away from the application deadline when I got done. I got in Sloan, Booth, Johnson, and Yale SOM, which was a dream come true. Super appreciative and grateful for the Inspira team's help!

My favorite aspect of working with… My favorite aspect of working with Arush and the Inspira team was how well they prepped me to begin writing my essays. Their MBA Action Plan assessment helped me recognize my areas of strength as well as my areas of weakness. While I had short and long-term plans, they helped me crystallize these ideas and articulate them in a manner that was cohesive and engaging, which is critical for any application. They also helped me identify aspects of my background that would be useful for some of the less traditional essays (e.g., Kellogg and MIT Sloan). I got into all the 4 schools that I applied to.

I only have great things to say about… I only have great things to say about Botong and team at Inspira. Amazing attention to detail, best story tellers and people who will put relationships above everything else. I admire and appreciate how much you cared about my success.
