A Great Help! Admitted To Boston University On Scholarship!

  "Initially, I was skeptical of the value of these services, but Paul quickly changed my mind. He helped me figure out what aspects of myself to highlight to create the holistic picture admissions was looking for as well as make sure my writing sounded like me, but better! He was also incredibly responsive despite the fact that I was finishing crafting applications over the holiday season. I was accepted to UCLA and Boston University on a $50K Dean's Scholarship and am ecstatic to be attending BU in the fall!"   Admitted to Boston University Questrom School of Business ($50K) – MBA Class of 2025

Paul Is The Best!

He really went out of his way to guide me at each step of the process and was always available to help me out.

Paul Made It Possible (GSB Admit With $100K+)

  "Tl;Dr – working with Paul was the best MBA-related decision I made. Having worked with a different leading MBA consulting company the year prior, Paul was everything that I had thought was missing in my last experience. I advise you to put the cost investment of working with Paul into perspective (i.e., the cost of attending an MBA program) and assure you that the money spent is absolutely worth it! Here are the three most important things I would like you to know about working with Paul: 1. Trust; Paul genuinely cares: I learned to blindly trust Paul early on after I had just been dinged by GSB (I had worked with a diff consultant that year) and was deciding between re-applying or going to Haas. Paul spent a lot of time and effort (more than what I had paid for) reviewing my dinged app, identified a lot of areas where my application could be elevated, but still recommended going to Haas. Only after I found a new role that considerably improved my candidacy did he suggest we give GSB another shot. This showed me that he prioritized my success over finding another client. 2. Meticulous/detailed red-lining: As I mentioned earlier in my review, I had worked with a leading competitor before and had hated how their comments/edits to the essay were broad strokes and tough to action. On the other hand, when you receive a red-lined version from Paul, you can see that every word has been read thoroughly, evaluated individually, and curated carefully to crisply convey the core message without losing the applicant’s voice. 3. Relationship/above and beyond: Paul goes above and beyond for you without thinking about “the most time-efficient way to get the app done” for himself. Working with Paul feels like working with a close friend and confidant. I remember spending multiple zoom sessions just word vomiting at him, as he took notes, and made concise suggestions in the end that seemed to capture everything I mentioned. Paul really knows how to get to the crux of what you want to get out there to the application committee. Even after I got into the GSB, he spent additional time helping me write my financial aid essay, which got me $100K+ in scholarship. He is the absolute best!!"   Admitted to Stanford Graduate School of Business ($100K+) – Class of 2024

Paul Made The Difference! (HBS Admit / Reapplicant)

  "Working with Paul over the eight months in the build-up to round 1 was invaluable to my acceptance to HBS this time around. As a re-applicant who was interviewed and ultimately dinged a few years ago, I knew it would be critical to identify and analyze the areas of improvement (e.g., my story and long-term goals) in order to achieve a better outcome. Paul’s dedication to getting to know his clients was apparent to me after just one session. He thoroughly reviewed my applications from the previous cycle and we spent several hour-long sessions talking in depth about my family, my background, and my goals. From there, Paul helped me develop a game plan and kept me accountable (not in a pushy way!) to meet the deadlines we established to meet the round 1 deadlines. Inevitably, things got pushed out due to my GMAT studying and a busier than expected summer work schedule, but our plan was crafted with enough buffer that I never felt at risk of missing the round 1 deadlines or rushing my work product. With respect to my essays, they turned out stronger than I could’ve ever imagined! Paul helped me to think critically about my narrative and “connect the dots” with my long-term goals. In addition to my essays, Paul helped me prepare for my interview and accurately predicted the topics that the interviewers would dive into, which helped me go into the interview with confidence. Paul’s help and guidance was exactly what I needed and as a result, I am happy to say I will be a member of HBS 2024! I cannot think of a better or more genuine consultant to work with for the grueling MBA process – I would highly recommend Paul especially or those interested in the most competitive B-school programs!"   Admitted to Harvard Business School – MBA Class of 2024

Top-Notch Experience Working With Paul! Admitted To Booth, Kellogg, & Haas

  "I worked with Paul for almost a year on MBA applications. From our very first brainstorming call to the navigation of waitlists, it was always clear that Paul was invested in my success. Paul goes above and beyond and takes a tailored approach with every application. His level of familiarity with what each school is looking for is invaluable. Paul’s turnaround times were always incredibly fast and his feedback was always thoughtful. The MBA application process can be a long journey, and Paul was the best partner I could imagine to help ease the pain of the process. With Paul’s help, I received acceptance letters from Booth, Kellogg, and Haas (with a $50K scholarship). I also received a spot on MIT’s waitlist. Paul’s continued guidance and encouragement through the waitlist process is a testament to his genuine desire to see each of his clients succeed. I would highly recommend Paul to anyone who considers applying for an MBA."   Admitted to University of Chicago Booth School of Business, Northwestern University Kellogg School of Management, and University of California Berkeley Haas School of Business ($50K) – MBA Class of 2024

More Than An MBA Consultant...

  "Ever since I met Paul, I immediately felt very comfortable working with him, his coaching and guidance has helped me not only to get acceptance with a $40,000 scholarship at Wharton, Chicago Booth and WL at Stanford but he has also helped me to understand the power of my own BRAND and how my career and expertise differentiates me from my peers though the power of storytelling. These skillsets that I learned though our multiple one-on-one sessions will help me throughout the rest of my career, and I would wholeheartedly recommend anyone who is planning to apply to a top tier MBA to work with Paul Bodine and his super-b consulting team."   Admitted to The Wharton School ($40K) and The University of Chicago Booth School of Business ($40K) – MBA Class of 2025

A Key Partner In Getting Me A Darden Admit With Scholarship!!

  "In the competitive landscape of pursuing an MBA from a top tier program, Paul proved to be an invaluable asset, providing unparalleled guidance and support throughout the application process. Before Paul’s engagement I had a strong resume. But Paul helped me craft “my story” that became an integral part of my essays and interview with Darden. One of the key strengths of Paul is his ability to identify and fill the “gaps” that make a good application an exceptional one. Paul took the time to understand my career goals, strengths, and experiences, ensuring that the applications reflected my authentic self. Throughout the process, Paul exhibited exceptional professionalism and responsiveness. I consider Paul not just an MBA consultant but a true partner in the MBA application journey, and highly recommend Paul to anyone aspiring to get into a top tier MBA program."   Admitted to University of Virginia Darden School of Business ($24K) – EMBA Class of 2026

From ~3.1 GPA To MIT Sloan With A Scholarship – Thanks To Paul

  "Paul was instrumental in my acceptance to MIT Sloan—with a ~25% scholarship to boot. With a ~3.1 GPA from undergrad, I knew I needed to overcome an academic hurdle and present a truly compelling story. Paul helped me do exactly that. His coaching, guidance, and support were invaluable, and I cannot thank him enough. The most important part is that Paul doesn’t just help you craft your story—though he’s exceptional at that—he truly takes the time to understand who you are and what drives you. His deep insights, thoughtful feedback, and unwavering encouragement made a huge difference at every step. I genuinely could not have done this without Paul’s help. I’m incredibly grateful for the role he played in making my dream come true, for believing in me, and for being such a dedicated and supportive partner throughout the journey."   Admitted to MIT Sloan School of Management ($45K) – MBA Class of 2027
