It’s not about getting low or high GRE and TOEFL score. It’s about the complete profile. Walking out with low score from centre disappointed me but Nistha’s guidance in making strong SOP/LOR/Resume made me eligible for getting into good universities. She is the only one who actually knows what admission committee needs. From start to end she was very handy and quick in evaluating profile and making it strong. As I can see student with more than 300 score in GRE got rejection from NEU, BOSTON. Bu… Read more

Enrolling with Scholar Strategy made all the difference, it was the same profile as last year.
Somesh (Prod Mgmt & Design) - Gatech, Berkeley, Dartmouth
The one thing common at all the top schools is a diverse student body. This is mainly because these schools dont just consider a GRE/GMAT score but look at the complete profile of the student before offering admission. You might be good and have a great score too, but unless you can sell that to the admissions committee, they won’t let you in. This is where I think students need to seek help if required. And Nistha is amazingly good at that. Having been a part of the committee, she knows what… Read more
Akash Gandotra, CMU (MIS)
I was a mid-career professional in my early thirties when I started my journey with Scholar Strategy (SS). Tired with the monotonous job, and frustrated with corporate politics, I was probably going through a ‘mid-career’ crisis, not really sure where I wanted to go. This is when Nistha came to my rescue and trust me she is the best counsellor I have ever had in my life! Having spent 12 years in IT industry, I wasn’t really sure if I wanted to do an MBA and that’s when Nistha helped me f… Read more

I was skeptical about online counseling for my MS Application but finally I would say it is one of the turning points in my journey for MS applications. Nistha is an amazing counselor she understands the students really well. At each and every iteration I realized that my SOP and LOR are getting better. Everything was well planned. Nistha’s valuable advice has helped me get admits from top graduate schools and realize my dream.
Sahil Nyati, CMU (MIS)
I will be graduating from Portland State University in 2018, completing my Master’s in Electrical and Computer Engineering – and I would like to thank Scholar Strategy for enabling me for a journey that I never planned to do. A little bit of history about myself, I was working as a Software Engineer at Hewlett Packard Enterprise for 2 years and there has been something constant throughout my time there – total dislike for the job and thoughts on how to get out it for good. Nistha played a piv… Read more

Scholar Strategy is for people who are looking for a mentor and not a typical counselor. Working with Nistha has been great. She helps you come up with a unique story of your own for the SOP and this I believe is one thing that makes your application stand out. She was available on mails throughout the process, giving honest and practical suggestions. A special mention to our closed Facebook group called ‘Scholar Strategy gang’, this group’s peer-help has been amazing. Thank you, Nistha!… Read more
Suchitra, Syracuse (MIS)
I was pretty sure that I stand no chance of getting into a good university when I walked out of the GRE centre with a low score. But Nistha has proved me wrong!!. Nistha’s guidance has been more than valuable in writing SOP, LORs and listing Universities. She takes great care in reviewing documents and provides a candid evaluation. Her tailored counseling is what makes her successful. Thanks to Nistha, I find myself preparing to attend UIUC this Fall.

SS helped me a lot during the application process. In addition to the help provided by Nistha, the SS community added more value to the package.
