ADMITTED TO STANFORD GRADUATE SCHOOL OF BUSINESS: 

I'm writing my words with a grateful heart after being accepted into my dream MBA program at Stanford GSB with Gahye's consulting.

I want to share three reasons why Gahye stood out among countless MBA consultants.
1. She discovers and maximizes the 'unique specialties' that even applicants themselves didn't know they had.
The essay is undoubtedly the core of the MBA application process. Unlike quantitative stats, the essay is the only opportunity to truly show who you are. Gahye has an exceptional talent for deeply understanding an applicant's life story and identifying its most brilliant aspects.

When you're applying, it's natural to feel anxious and wonder, "Is my story special enough?" But with Gahye, you don't have to worry. She uncovers the extraordinary meaning within seemingly ordinary experiences and transforms them into the most compelling narrative.

2. She crafts an essay that truly stands out and is 'a joy to read' among thousands of others.
The same experience can become a moving masterpiece or just a boring list of facts, depending on how it's told. Gahye's writing has the power to be both concise and deeply insightful as needed.

If you want an essay that will immediately capture the attention of admissions officers who read thousands of essays a year—and make them eager to read more—Gahye is the best choice.

3. She turns the time zone difference into a powerful advantage: '24/7 non-stop teamwork.'
I especially recommend Gahye to international applicants like myself. The MBA application process is truly all about "teamwork." The time difference between Korea and the US can often be a disadvantage, but with Gahye, it created a powerful synergy.

I could work during my day in Korea, and while I was resting, Gahye would provide feedback and prepare the next steps. This allowed us to use the day twice as effectively. In the final stages of the application, when every minute counts, this efficiency was an invaluable asset.

Finally, I believe that for MBA admissions, you should work with someone who has achieved the results themselves. In that sense, Gahye's know-how is unmatched, as she has personally been accepted to and experienced a top MBA program.

With Gahye's help, I am confident that my chances of success significantly increased. As an applicant, I was under pressure to get admitted, but the activity of developing and refining my story with her was an enjoyable experience in itself.

 

I felt that her breadth of thinking was on a different level from others including me, and her ability to express this in English was several steps above, I felt. Having scored a 750 on the GMAT and trained in Sentence Correction to identify good sentences, I could particularly appreciate this.

 

Also, as someone who applied to MBA programs twice, the quality difference between my first-year essays and second-year essays was clear, which helped raise my standards for good writing. I highly recommend her!

ADMITTED TO BERKELEY HAAS: 

First of all, I can say that working with Gahye was an incredible stroke of luck for me. I had previously worked with another essay consultant for my first-round applications but ended up tasting failure. I was in the process of reapplying, so I was very desperate.

Looking at my MBA applicant profile, it was quite weak in several aspects: Asian male, second-tier consulting, over 33 years old, reapplicant, no U.S. undergraduate experience. Although I had extensive experience in international consulting firms, they weren’t MBB (McKinsey, BCG, Bain), so there was still room for concern. Moreover, the average age of applicants had been trending younger, and at the time I applied, we were entering a post-COVID downturn where the number of applicants was rising. I was an older reapplicant in a very competitive cycle.

Despite all that, through Gahye’s help with essays, the application process, and mock interviews, I was successfully admitted to one of the Top 10 MBA programs.

What I appreciated most about working with Gahye was that she didn’t treat it like a simple transactional “service” — where you get only what you paid for — but instead genuinely rooted for me and worked with the urgency and dedication of a pace-setter who truly wanted to see me succeed.

Because Gahye had gone through an MBA herself, she deeply understood the mindset and emotions of applicants. That empathy and insight helped me re-center myself emotionally after multiple rejections and push forward once again.

In terms of services, one of Gahyes biggest strengths is her up-to-date knowledge as a recent MBA graduate. She has a strong grasp of which industries/sectors are trending, and which regions are best suited for certain fields. She used that knowledge to tailor my application to fit my profile. She also provided clear guidance on what keywords admissions committees like — and dislike — so we could strategically incorporate those into my essays and applications. As a result, she helped craft a compelling application package customized for each school.

Rather than treating each essay in isolation, Gahye emphasized the importance of having a cohesive message and voice throughout the entire application. I believe that consistency across the full package was a key factor in ultimately getting admitted. Additionally, during mock interviews, she drew from her background as a leadership coaching professional and gave me very detailed feedback on body language, tone, eye contact, and delivery — which helped me prepare for the interview more effectively.

In conclusion, unlike when I previously received only essay help, this time I was able to maintain a consistent voice and message across the entire package — and that’s what I believe led to my admission.

I sincerely hope you get to work with Gahye and achieve your dream of getting into a U.S. MBA program.

ADMITTED TO KELLOGG SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT: 

​

Working with GaHye was one of the best decisions I made during the MBA application process. What stood out most was her clear understanding of what each school is looking for, thanks to her having gone through the MBA journey herself relatively recently. She helped me effectively shape my story to highlight my strengths and guided me through the brainstorming process so we could build a compelling and cohesive narrative together.

​

From a workflow perspective, the time difference between Korea and the States worked in our favor. GaHye reviewed and revised my materials overnight from the the States, and I could pick up right away the next morning to continue refining them. This created a highly efficient cycle and helped us maintain momentum throughout the application process.

​

Her bilingual skills were also a major advantage. We were able to communicate in Korean with precision, while she edited essays and recommendations in native-level English. This allowed my story to come through in a natural and persuasive way. I didn’t experience the inefficiencies or disconnects that often come from working separately with a Korean consultant and a native English writer. Instead, the entire process felt smooth, consistent, and highly effective.
