+1 for SEEM1.
Though I think think the question could apply to other schools besides M7.
This question has been asked in someway several times. See other responses here.

I used one and thought it was helpful, but I also didn’t know anyone well who’d gone through the app process before so didn’t really know how to start telling my story. I used Stratus, and their frameworks + my counselor’s guidance at every step were helpful and made me feel more confident about putting my best foot forward.
That said, I only did it for one school and applied what I learned across the rest. You could even do hourly if you know there are certain aspects in which you need help, and others where you’re more confident. I also highly recommend applicant lab whether you use a consultant or not! It has guidance for every school, videos, a whole bank of interview questions, etc. - super useful info.
Feel free to DM with questions!
Coach
Can I ask if you’re willing to share the specifics of what you wrote about? I’m trying to get off the waitlist personally and would love to hear what you did to get in successfully as I craft a waitlist letter!
Coach
You could look into using a coach on Leland for much cheaper
I found a good coach who helped me get admitted to GSB / Wharton / Kellogg — he cost ~$300 per hour and was incredibly helpful on the storytelling aspect of application.
Old thread but could I be DM’d the name?
think if you’re trying for HBS or GSB a coach can really help with your story. for the other schools, you can probably craft a competitive application on your own if you have good stats
I did not use a coach and got into 3 M7s. Planning on working through Leland to offer coaching services. I don’t think you need to spend thousands though… most people end up being dissatisfied
Highly recommend checking out Leland (joinleland.com)!
