As a full-time professional, applying to a dozen top universities seemed daunting, but David’s process helped me choose institutions that would be the best match for my interest and long-term goals. He assessed my overall strategy, guaranteeing that I would be satisfied with the outcome of these stressful months of preparation. While David and the team didn’t directly make changes to my main application essay, they provided feedback and guidance, making sure I focused on my strengths and explained shortcomings in a positive light. My situation was unusual: I had a poor GPA, and yet I aspired to be part of some of the world’s toughest graduate programs.
David was extremely available in our communications and was willing to go the extra mile to make sure I was happy with the results. He was even able to sleuth out a fantastic opportunity I had overlooked: I succeeded in entering the top-ranked graduate program in my field. I was actually able to turn down offers from the other top 5 schools in favor of my dream school. I might have gone down this path alone, but I didn’t want to gamble with this important step toward my future career. David and College Match ensured my chances of getting in were as high as they could possibly be, and that success would be determined by the quality of my preparedness versus a roll of the dice.
