SKILLS
ABOUT SUSAN CERA
Susan Is The Michael Jordan Of MBA Admissions (HBS \'24)I cannot recommend Susan highly enough – if there was an 11/10 option she would be worthy of that score and more. I knew that I was going to be working with a top-notch admissions expert of her reputation, but the experience I had greatly exceeded my expectations. She took the time to really get to know me so that I could identify what is unique about me and present my most authentic self through my essays and interviews, and through her introspective inquiry process helped me come to realize my personal and career ambitions.Susan Is The Definition Of Expertise & Heart - BEST Investment Ever!(Wharton \'24)If I could offer a single piece of advice to someone interested in business school, it would be: work with Susan Cera. Susan helped me secure multiple acceptances, including 3 full-ride scholarships (including one to an M7) and a substantial scholarship to Wharton. Honestly, that success alone is enough for me to offer Susan my highest recommendation (11/10!) and to tell everyone I know to hire her ASAP. However, Susan brought so much more to our relationship than the feedback one would expect from a consultant. She brought unyielding support, so much positivity and, truthfully, heart.She wants the best for her clients and consistently (underscore consistently!) goes above and beyond.Words On A Screen Cannot Convey How Amazing Susan Is!(Chicago Booth \'24 – Distinguished Leadership Fellow)My profile is non-traditional by non-traditional standards, with a couple of outlandishly big red flags that desperately needed to be put into context… This is why I reached out to Susan for guidance.Saying that my expectations were exceeded beyond anything I could have imagined is an understatement. Susan cannot work miracles, but she can help you put on full display the person that you know yourself to be, provided you are willing to be honest and bare your heart to her…Susan’s compassion toward her clients and enthusiasm for her advisory role is unparalleled…Lastly, peace of mind. If you are worried about the strength of your application, then you have a very compelling reason to give Susan a call. You will sleep better knowing that you did absolutely everything within your power to achieve your dreams…My results: admitted to 5 of 7 programs to which I applied and over $650k in total scholarships at all but one). Could I have done this without her? Well sure, my application was 100% me. Would it have been likely? Absolutely. No. Way.
