In the B-school application process, having a good sounding board to bounce one's ideas of is pivotal. Vikram's role in helping me identify stories that had potential from the not so impressive ones added immense value to my application.

From discussing which B-schools to apply, getting the CV right to endless drafts of essays, Vikram was there to help me, working harder than I did. Also as he got to know me better, he was the one who encouraged me to apply to higher-ranking schools and we eventually decided to apply to Top 10 only.

It is very important to project a consistent and clear
picture of "Who you are" to the Adcom. Vikram forces you to
think deep about every word you put in your application. After
some sessions I too developed the same bent of mind. This
really helped me communicate my message clearly not only in my
applications but also during my interviews. He acted like an
amazing sounding board giving very objective and clear
feedback.

Vikram was referred to me by one of my ex-colleagues. I reached out to him and in the first call itself I sort of made up my mind to hire him as my guide for MBA application. He has an extremely robust approach in which he tries to bring out the best in your profile.

Vikram was always on top of the game,
guiding me throughout the process – challenging me when I
wasn't aiming high enough, and bringing me back to reality when
I got carried away. Time was no barrier at all and Vikram was
unlike any consultant I had ever heard of. He was more like a
big brother – available and ready whenever I wanted help, night
or day, weekday or weekend.

When I started with my MBA application, I was completely
overwhelmed with the volumes of essays I had to write and the
whole application process. Hence I decided I needed someone who
could guide me through the whole process and help me bring out
the best in me. A good friend of mine from a reputed B-school
introduced me to Vikram and after speaking to him I was
convinced he was the right person for me to work with.

Right from Day 1, Vikram has been a partner in the effort
of applying to B Schools – guiding my progress at every step.
Unlike most other consultants, he followed this unique approach
where he went through a "Life History Walkthrough" to
understand every aspect of my life and thus found episodes that
I never thought were consequential.

My reason for an MBA after significant experience was to
switch industry and along with it function and geography. After
evaluating several foreign and domestic MBA consultants, I
zeroed in to work with Vikram, primarily for his 'no strings
attached' approach to working with applicants.

Writing an application involves knowing yourself
accurately. Atleast for me, it was not one bit easy to write
about myself. Vikram helped me, with his apt questions,
understand how to put forward my achievements, skills, etc. His
honest, unbiased opinion really helps drive things in the right
direction with the right spirit.

The best thing about Vikram is his ability to understand
your profile and help you find areas which can be marketed.
While working on essays, he helped me put the work and projects
I had done into a perspective that I had not explored myself
coming from a set way of thinking.

The thing best I guess about Vikram is his genuineness
and commitment. He will make sure that you constantly push the
envelope and give your best and that, I believe, makes the
difference. No compromise on quality!

There are many good things
about Vikram. But, the best ones are that he is thoroughly
professional, takes his work very seriously. He is unbelievably
reachable all the time. He is brutally honest, extremely efficient
and painfully punctual. All I can say is that, he is the reason
that I will be attending B-school this year.

On his website, Vikram Shah says, "I am a marketeer, a
story teller, a writer, a coach, a teacher and a consultant. I
like helping people achieve their goals. I am very straight
forward and am brutally honest with feedback. I work very hard
and set very high standards." After having known him for more
than a year now, I would say just the same for him or even
more!

After a terrible experience with a consulting firm for
essay review, I was looking for someone who could actually add
value to my applications and increase my chances of getting
into a reputed college. I am glad I chose Vikram (over tens of
other consultancies) and now I am joining school with a $70,000
scholarship!!
