Faisal has helped clients get into these schools:
While working in the University of Chicago Booth School of Business Admissions Office, I reviewed hundreds of applications and learned what distinguished the successful candidates from those who were merely qualified for admission. As a member of AIGAC (https://aigac.org/) I spend time with the admissions teams of the top business schools to better understand what each school is looking for each year. Over the last 15 years, I have successfully helped both US and non-US-based MBA applicants translate their rich global experiences into compelling, relevant, and memorable applications. I am especially proud of the scholarship offers that my clients have landed, summing to more than $500K over the years! I deliver a unique approach to MBA admissions consulting, combining the art of storytelling with persuasive communication techniques, thereby offering my clients a distinct advantage over other applicants. I also specializes in helping MBA candidates who want to transition to a new career path, guiding them on how to convince admissions officers that an MBA will put them on the path to success in a brand new field.

About Faisal
While working in the University of Chicago Booth School of Business Admissions Office, I reviewed hundreds of applications and learned what distinguished the successful candidates from those who were merely qualified for admission. I also obtained my MBA from Booth and have professional experiences in management consulting, tech, and the healthcare sectors. My focus in each sector was always marketing and strategy, helping each business stand out from its competition. Along the way, as I began helping friends and acquaintances gain admission to their top choice programs, I realized I had a passion for teasing out a person's story to highlight what separated them from the herd. I dove in to making admissions consulting a bigger part of my life, and have never looked back! I spend the bulk of my time with my clients helping create a framework for their stories. Where have you succeeded? Where have you failed? What excites you? What's different about you? My clients describe the work that I do as part admissions consulting and part executive coaching. The skills I impart help not only with creating an MBA application, but also with refining career goals and objectives. A lot of coaches promise to deliver, but you can verify my claims by looking at what former clients have said about me at https://poetsandquants.com/consultant/faisal-khan/?pq-directory-type=consultant, where I have testimonials from clients admitted to all Top 10 schools and with over $500K in combined scholarship grants. As an MBA coach, it's not enough to simply have graduated from a top business school. As an active member of AIGAC - our global, governing body - I make sure to stay in close communication with the admissions teams at all of the top business schools. This is how a coach ensures they have the most up-to-date information about each business school's goals and objectives for the year, and can in turn help you craft an application that speaks to these.
Why do I coach?
I have lived, traveled, or worked on six continents and have engaged with MBA candidates from all corners of the world. Along the way, I've learned that every person has a fascinating story to tell, even if the language and style they use to tell it differs. I derive energy from helping others communicate what sets them apart in a unique and compelling way.
