1. The profile evaluation call gave me clarity on how Piyush works and what I would be signing up for. His honest and detailed feedback on my choices and aspirations built my confidence in working with him.
2. Piyush helped me structure my applications and set a clear timeline, making the process much easier, especially since I started quite late.
3. His friendly and positive approach, combined with his availability for any queries, was invaluable. Piyush's insights and judgement, and the 100% success rate I have had with my applications is a testament to his expertise.
I would recommend Piyush for anyone seeking professional help with their MBA applications.

From day one, Piyush went above and beyond to truly understand me on a personal level, delving into my aspirations, strengths, and weaknesses.
His feedback was not only prompt but also incredibly insightful, constantly pushing me to refine and polish my narrative. Whenever I had questions or concerns, he was always there, offering invaluable guidance and motivation at every step.
One aspect that truly set Piyush apart was his approachability and the support he provided throughout the process. It was crucial for me to have a consultant who understood the emotional aspects of the MBA journey, and Piyush was that constant source of support through thick and thin. His detailed 8-step process, emphasis on setting achievable timelines, and his unwavering commitment to bringing out my best truly struck a chord with me. I cannot thank him enough for the tremendous support he provided.

MM really helped me deep dive, evaluate and present my stories as best I could. The sessions before working on the essays involved a lot of introspection and allowed me to understand my goals and motivations on a deeper level.
They added structure and a proper timeline to the whole process, Piyush was extremely friendly and always available for a quick chat whenever I needed extra help.
Piyush helped me refine and polish my essays and at the end of it all, I could clearly see the difference between my first essay drafts and the final product.

1. Profile Evaluation Call - Feedback was honest, succinct and insightful. You highlighted what stood about me as well as what about my profile could prove to be a challenge. This gave me very actionable points about what I should highlight vs what I can improve.
2. Workshops - Whether those were key strengths and weaknesses, values, personal or professional life - all helped bring out every single aspect of my personality. You asked questions that helped me deeply introspect and understand the “why” and “impact” of everything I’ve done.
3. Structure - I liked that there was a structure to the entire process. I knew what to expect, what work I had to do and timelines.
4. You went above and beyond to provide honest (and humorous) advice whenever I needed it. Over the months, it didn’t feel like a professional connection but rather like talking to a wise friend haha.

My interactions with Piyush left me with a strong appreciation for his working methods and personality. He struck the perfect balance between listening and consulting. His patience for wanting to understand the full picture of candidates' background before probing, showcases his dedication to help candidates bring out their best story forward. More importantly, his kindness and genuine positivity made every interaction an enjoyable one.
It goes without saying that Piyush has strong expertise and experience in consulting a wide range of candidates on admissions across top global schools. Given the 100% success I had with my applications, I feel vindicated in my decision to work with Management Masters. I would recommend Piyush to anyone looking for a strong and empathetic professional to help them on their b-school applications.
Varnim Goyal
INSEAD ($$), MIT Sloan ($$), Kellogg
What I liked the most was that Piyush was able to say No to me. He played a complementary role to my application, guiding me where I was going wrong.
The overall 8-Step process helped me a lot in bringing structure to my thoughts and identifying experiences which I could then use for my essays.
Vanshika Bagdy
INSEAD
Piyush knows the ins and outs of the MBA application process. He was able to also provide me with a coach who has "been there, done that", a current INSEAD student. The mock interviews were incredibly helpful in refining and customizing my responses to the school's expectations and boosting my confidence.
I recommend all MBA aspirants to follow Piyush on LinkedIn, and at least have an initial chat with him. Thank you MM, for making a significant impact on my MBA journey!
Varun Chavali
INSEAD, ISB, IIM Ahmedabad
Management Masters did everything well but what I liked the most were the deep dive sessions that helped me better understand my background, storyline, and how best to present my profile. I also really liked the feedback, suggestions and edits throughout the essay review and resume building process.
Rohan Sanghvi
Kellogg, HEC Paris
- They pushed me to do my own research about B-schools rather than pushing me to a particular school. They were always there to support me in making informed decisions.
- Deep dive into candidate's profile: The 8-10 hours of workshops around identifying a candidate’s key strengths, weaknesses, future goals, career story, made me truly reflect on my journey and have clarity about my goals.
- MBA essays: They pushed me to be the best version of myself. The fact that they absolutely never write your essays for you was the best thing I liked about them.
- The support from MM for even smallest, trivial queries was too good. I never not got a response from them within more than a day.
- Pricing: The pricing was very reasonable compared to the services and support MM provides. Feels like a black Friday sale.
- Mock Interviews: Extensive connects with B-school alumni, they match you to specific alums based on your target school.
I had an amazing experience working with Aniket. It felt like he was actually interested in my future, and was more like a mentor-mentee relationship than a customer.

After a disappointing experience with my previous consultant in Round 1, I was fortunate to find an exceptional professional who exceeded my expectations and restored my faith in the consulting process. From the moment I began working with Piyush, it was evident that his commitment and dedication were unmatched. He consistently went above and beyond to ensure I received the guidance and assistance I needed throughout the MBA application journey. Piyush exhibited an exceptional eye for precision, thoroughly reviewed my application materials, meticulously scrutinizing every aspect to identify areas for improvement. His insightful feedback and constructive suggestions helped refine my essays, enabling me to present a polished and compelling application that highlighted my strengths.
Beyond his technical proficiency, Piyush provided mentorship and support whenever required. He took the time to understand my unique background, career trajectory, and aspirations, tailoring his guidance to my specific needs. His genuine investment in my success was palpable, as he offered personalized advice, shared valuable resources, and encouraged me to push my boundaries to achieve my full potential. Last but not least, I signed up with Management Masters, searching for a good Consultant, but I found a brother.

1. Clear and structured process - from profile evaluation to goals workshops.
2. Well-defined timelines to prevent last minute stress.
3. The process was friendly to a point that I could be completely honest about all my weaknesses.
4. Very honest feedback on all my school choices, essays and interview prep. This is especially helpful because it prevents you from both - underselling yourself and also having unrealistic goals.
5. Extremely good sounding board amidst all the uncertainty of the application process.
6. Amazing turnaround time to feedback on all essays.

Management Masters was different from other consultancies by providing contact time and help whenever necessary. There was no limit of number of hours or number of edits etc. They brought a structure and timeline to my applications.

I loved the overall experience. Firstly, The MBA project really helped me get started on the whole process. Then in the application stage, the way we worked together to figure out my story, refine my goals and prepare for interviews helped me achieve great results.
Finally, Piyush’s positive attitude even when the initial results weren’t great, his constant encouragement and belief in my profile really boosted my confidence. I will definitely recommend your services to other aspiring MBA candidates.

Bopanna Prakash
HEC Paris, Oxford
I knew about Piyush from a few friends and his "very active presence" on LinkedIn.
Right from the first call, the "Key Strengths" exercise, I knew I was in good hands. Piyush created a comfortable space and pushed me to dig deeper and uncover the why behind some key events and decisions. These sessions really helped me bring out these facets in the essays, and showcase my candidature holistically.
The discussion on b-school selection was not just about selecting a college in terms of whether I got in or not, but also if the college will really help me reach my goals. Finally, as I wrote the essays, there were no limitations on the number of iterations, and Piyush's pointed inputs helped enhance my essays exponentially.
All of this materialized into admits from HEC Paris and Oxford!
Ganesh Kamavarapu
HEC Paris
The structured process and the focus on understanding oneself helped me write well thought out essays. There was constant encouragement towards research, especially about the school and career prospects. The regular guidance about the essay structures and constant push helped me meet the deadlines. Most importantly, attention was given to every minute detail of the application and support continued post application, in the interview and post interview as well. Being a reapplicant I could see a lot of positive difference from my earlier application to my current application and this has been a major factor for my success this year.
Mansi Arora
HEC Paris
I really appreciate the fact that Management Masters guides its aspirants in the right direction along with just the right amount of help. Allowing me to take the wheel for my MBA application and interviews mainly through self-reflection was the best aspect of the offered consultation. With many Indian consultation services centred around stereotypical methods, MM makes a good attempt at breaking them off.
Kashish Minocha
HEC Paris
Firstly, the honesty and no unrealistic expectations. Secondly, the personal investment in every step and in every essay and the support extended which made an already iterative process even more comfortable. Nothing was just transactional and limited by the number of calls one can have and the number of hours I can request, which definitely stood out to me!
Aniket Agrawal
HEC Paris
The process of looking deeper and building your own story was the best thing for me.
Now that I am out of it, I can firmly say that if I hadn't introspected, there is absolutely no way I would've received an admission offer.
Ananjan Bhattacharyya
Berkeley Haas
The initial workshops focused on understanding key personal strengths, weaknesses, and motivations in a structured manner were unique and effective. The availability to answer any queries and provide additional help over text or calls when needed was another big positive.
Pranjal Singla
Duke Fuqua ($$), ISB
- Easy accessibility: Always available on phone/WhatsApp
- Pricing is not tooo high
- Provided a good understanding of the overall application process
Sanchit Khanna
Oxford ($)
Throughout the process, I was in the driver's seat and actively involved in shaping my applications. The team's methodology was rigorous and reliable, ensuring a successful approach to MBA admissions.
I particularly appreciated Aniket's support in encouraging me to take calculated risks with certain schools, leveraging my profile's unique differentiators. The thorough process of identifying strengths, weaknesses, career paths, and goals was time-consuming but in hindsight, it was the best homework I could do before applying to b-schools.
Even after utilizing their application package, the team continued to support me with other applications, exemplifying their commitment to fostering a genuine relationship.
Shreyasee Chatterjee
Darden School of Business
I worked on essay reviews for Darden with Piyush, and on our first call, within the first 5 minutes I had my story straight. He teased the information out of me, making me introspect and connect the dots easily. I also found the interview prep sessions incredibly thorough and helpful. Superb feedback process!
Madhav Sankar
Ross ($$$), Kellogg ($), Cornell ($$)
Firstly, Piyush's blunt, timely feedback provided clear insights and guidance for improvement. Secondly, the (not) occasional sarcastic comment or joke added a personal touch to our interactions, making work with him all the more enjoyable. Lastly, his availability at any time provided a sense of security and reliability, knowing that assistance is always available. Overall, I was highly impressed by Management Master's meticulousness and professionalism, helping me convert most of my applied schools.
Mathanki Sreeskand
McDonough ($$), NYU Stern, Mendoza ($$$)
I’m deeply grateful for the support Piyush provided during my MBA application journey. As someone from Sri Lanka, I was initially cautious due to lack of personal connections but choosing Piyush proved to be the best decision I made for my MBA apps.
Piyush went above and beyond in guiding me through the essay reviews. He clearly articulated how I could structure my essays better, and his feedback was constructive, concise, and incredibly easy to understand and implement.
For mock interviews, Piyush provided clear and effective structures to follow. This not only prepared me for a wide range of potential interview questions but also equipped me to think on my feet, avoiding the pitfalls of memorizing scripted answers. His guidance gave me the confidence to handle any curveball thrown my way.
Choosing Piyush as my MBA consultant was a transformative experience. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking not just a consultant but a true partner in their MBA application journey.
