Matriculated program: London Business School Masters in Finance
I believe that being able to study finance at London Business School starting next summer—and having my admission decided quickly within the year by applying in the first round—was only possible thanks to Round One’s services.
In order to balance my work responsibilities with preparation for studying abroad, I felt it was essential to engage a consulting service that could provide ongoing counseling, and in January 2015 I reached out to Round One. I did not have the luxury of spending a great deal of time on preparation, and continuous coaching was also indispensable for maintaining my motivation. Through regular strategic meetings with Mr. Stephen Round, I was able to narrow down my target schools and efficiently obtain all the information necessary to secure admission, including the GMAT score required, whom to ask for letters of recommendation, and the overall application schedule.
In addition, the essay and document preparation provided by Ms. Emma Round were exceptional in quality. I decided to apply in the first round with an early October deadline only at the end of August, and despite her busy schedule, Ms. Round kindly accommodated my request. Together, we were able to prepare all of the required application materials intensively within just one month. Even while working long hours and having time available only on weekends, I was able to produce high-quality application materials in a short period, submit my application in the first round, and receive an interview invitation—all of which I believe was thanks to Ms. Round’s support. I also practiced interviews with her and received extremely precise feedback. The interview counseling service, which was tailored specifically to identify and address the areas I needed to improve in order to gain admission, offered outstanding value for money.
Overall, I am truly grateful that my first-round admission was made possible by a full year of continuous counseling, the flexibility to receive the necessary information and services whenever needed, and, above all, the warm and supportive advice of both counselors. Thank you very much.
