Having worked with Simi from the beginning to the end of my business school application process, I can say that I wouldn't have gained acceptance to GSB, Columbia, or Booth without him! He is a born teacher, and as such, you can expect top not feedback, advice, and encouragement in a very empathetic and friendly manner. While he was expensive, he was so great and easy to work with, I would recommend 10 out of 10 times. I don't believe there is a better tutor/consultant on the market!

Working with Simi was absolutely transformative for my GMAT and business school journey. Starting with a not-so-great 590, we managed to bump my score first to 670, then to a stellar 740, all within five months! It felt like Simi had a magic wand for my weaknesses, turning them into strengths with his focused and personalized approach.
Then came the business school applications. With Simi's guidance, I nailed admissions offers from four of the top five schools I applied to – MIT, Columbia, Wharton, and Darden. He was a wizard at weaving my story into something that not only made sense but also deeply resonated with the "why MBA" narrative across my essays. Plus, his tips on how to work with my recommenders without sounding bossy were gold.
Simi really knows his stuff, especially when it comes to tailoring your story to fit each school's application. He helped me adjust my essays to highlight what each school loves to see in candidates, making sure I stood out. But what really set Simi apart was his availability – it was like having a 24/7 MBA prep buddy. Stressed about an essay at 3 AM? No problem, Simi was there to help. This guy's commitment made the whole rollercoaster of applications way less scary and actually kind of fun.
Honestly, working with Simi felt less like a formal tutor-student setup and more like teaming up with a super knowledgeable friend who’s got your back no matter what. His support made a huge difference, turning what could have been a stressful process into a successful and even enjoyable journey. Can't recommend him enough – if you're on the fence, just go for it with Simi!

I decided to apply to business school last summer - Simi helped me with every step of the application process, from GMAT tutoring, to application development, to interviewing. He helped me improve my GMAT score by +180pts within 4 months - working with me through various test-taking techniques for the quant and verbal sections. I especially struggled with Data Sufficiency questions, but was able to bring my quant score up to a 49 with Simi’s help. He utilizes really great, effective strategies, and truly knows every “GMAT hack.” Beyond the GMAT, Simi is extremely knowledgeable about the MBA application process, and helped me secure multiple interviews at Top 10 MBA programs. He guided me in brainstorming personal essay ideas and worked with me to strengthen my applications, focusing on key professional accomplishments and tying them to my personal aspirations. Simi is also a recent grad of Columbia Business School, so his understanding of the application process is recent and highly relevant. He helped me understand what sort of applicant each school looks for, and how I can best tailor and strengthen my applications for each respective program. He was available to help me with any MBA-related question, and was extremely supportive throughout my journey. I came into the application with very limited knowledge, and am so grateful to have had such a knowledgeable and experienced trainer throughout the process.
