Big Mike Cohan in the buildin!!! This guy is phenomenal. I was hesistant to use him as he's not as well known as Blackman/Maxx Duffy/ClearAdmit, but he came through big-time. Very logical thinker, so much more than a well-paid "English teacher" - gave me very good strategic feedback, much more so than the Blackman consultant I was using simultaneously (wallet=ouch :( ). |

Mike Cohan is the best editor of essays I have ever seen. He can visualize precisely what you're trying to convey, and optimize not only the clarity and strength of impression, but also the word economy while you say it. If your primary need is essay editing, you absolutely cannot do better. |

Terrific service. Not inexpensive but certainly worth the money if you are serious about top program. During the process I found my writing skills improving significantly, which is worth the money even without the MBA |

Got accepted to Stanford Round 1! Michael was outstanding as an advisor. He had an excellent sense of how to find the right stories to tell and how to tell them perfectly. I couldn't have gotten in without him. Highly Recommended. |

Michael was amazing! He tears you down but builds you back up. He seeks perfection and has very high standards (believe me, that’s what you want from a consultant). After working with him extensively, the quality of my essays improved significantly, which helped me secure offers from Wharton and Harvard. Also, his turnaround time is quick (and he lets you know clearly when you can expect the next draft) and he is always very accommodating (as I am based in Asia) in scheduling calls to review the essays etc. Use his service if you want essays that are outstanding. Highly recommended. |

I interviewed several consultants but Michael came across as clearly outstanding. He has his own style, but we both put a lot of hours in to get the best out of my background and experience. Got admitted to Wharton! Many thanks Michael. Clearly top notch and highly recommended! |

Michael does an excellent job in driving you to present the best possible essay YOU can draft. Michael's in-depth knowledge of the various schools' programs and admissions processes allows him to offer well thought out recommendations and suggestions on anything you might need help with from school selection to application strategy to essay editing. I have no hesitation in recommending Michael's services! |

Michael is truly outstanding - he helped me identify weak areas of my candidacy and applied his unrivaled logic to help me craft a set of essays I felt truly proud of when complete. While I'm still waiting to hear back from HBS and Wharton Rd 2, I can rest easier knowing I put forth my best effort on these essays thanks to Michael. He is far more than a well-paid "English teacher" - he is a true quarterback of the process, and masterful at strategy. I'll report back in a few months hopefully with good news. ***UPDATE*** Admitted to Wharton Rd 2!!!! Thanks, Michael!!! |

MBAPrepAdvantage was absolutely amazing and provided me with exceptional service. My consultant was instrumental in helping me craft detailed and descriptive essays. I received very personal and candid feedback, and positively meticulous editing services. My consultant was extremely professional, readily available to field calls, and understood the nuances specific to each school's application. He helped me tailor my essays to each school, and passionately coached me until I could describe my long and short term goals in a concise and thoughtful way. The level of energy and guidance was amazing - and he made my application much stronger than I ever imagined. My consultant took pride in his work, and is truly an expert at managing this process. I wholeheartedly recommend MBAPrepAdvantage! |

Michael is not only a consultant, but also a mentor. There were times I felt like giving up, but his encouragement and the fact that he was even working harder than I was really motivated and encouraged me. I will recommend him to anyone that wants to apply once and get it over with... |

I was very fortunate to work with Mike. He did an excellent job helping me prepare my application under an intense time constraint. He also provided me with coaching that enabled me to position myself and my application in a way that maximized my opportunity for acceptance. His efforts resulted in a successful application to Columbia. |

Michael is a great partner in the application process. He motivates his clients, refines their essays and ideas through detailed insightful critques, and offers great input into the game theory involved in applications. Michael is a very high caliber professional--he is not cheap--but you get what you pay for and then some. |

Michael is an exceptional coach and well-informed Admissions Consulting Partner who will help you navigate the unpredictable and tenuous terrain of Business School applications. I worked closely with Michael over the past year and I am glad to say that he has played an important role in my successful applications resulting in ADMITS to MULTIPLE tier 1 schools. I was an Executive MBA applicant and Michael was very helpful in pointing out the areas that were more important to highlight in my essays. He is one the best ‘editing’ professionals I have seen and has a keen sense for suggesting optimal positioning of key concepts that make your essay content ‘clear and precise’. Last but not least, he is very accessible (even when travelling), prompt in his responses and delivers on his commitments. I strongly recommend him to anyone looking to further bolster his or her Business School application! Thanks Michael!!! |

Michael was very helpful throughout the application process as well as in preparation for the interview. The mock interview and his comments thereafter helped me prioritize the key messages I wanted to convey in the interview. Thank you, Michael! |

I would highly recommend MBAPrepAdvantage. Michael really drove me - the essays I thought were pretty good turned out to be not nearly introspective enough. I appreciated the way he didn't try to rewrite what I said, but instead tried to show me how to best convey the message I wanted to send. His comments are tough, but very thorough. |

Michael has given me some incredible assistance through my application process. He has an in-depth knowledge of how this system works and can help to tailor a complete package. He made sure that my essays made sense rather than just sound good. Furthemore, his help in interviews, waitlist, adcom communication etc... helped me to add strength to my app at the right time. Very encouraging, very effective!! |

This was my first application and so I interviewed a couple of Admission Consultants but none had the cunning and insight Michael was able to provide. |

Michael knows what your best image is, he digs deeper than friends with piercing questions that leads to amazing essays bringing out qualities that the admissions committees are looking for. At the same time, his practical and no-nonsense work ethic allows applicants to effectively apply to multiple schools. If you believe an MBA is a good investment, using MBAPREPADVANTAGE is a great investment. |
