I initially decided that I would go ahead with my applications without a counselor as it proved to be quite futile when my elder sister used it. But after perusing through Nistha’s answers on Quora and the articles on her blog, I decided to go ahead with Scholar Strategy without a second thought! I was really impressed with her structured procedure throughout, which also comes from the fact that she’s been through this herself (a rarity among counselors!)
She was very pragmatic with her suggestions and corrections, and it was worth every penny! With most counselors, it is a TEMPLATE that they follow, but with her, I could easily feel that she takes a deeper interest in each profile and then gives suggestions. This is pretty commendable, considering the volume of applicants she was handling!
She also goes out of her way to give you the entire “MS in US” experience with career advice.
Thanks 🙂

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.

I visited 7 consultancies in Delhi before finalizing Scholar Strategy even though it was an online one. Nistha is a really amazing person! She is available round the clock to assist you. You drop her an email and she’ll respond in no time! If you really want to understand the complete ‘MS in US’ process and experience the best, Scholar Strategy is the one you are looking for! The fact that she herself has been through it twice makes you want to trust her even more! And, oh yes, Scholar Strategy is value for money! 😀

Nistha’s valuable advice has helped me get admits from good grad schools. She is very strict and straightforward which I like most about her. She helped me with brainstorming sessions, regular document review and genuine feedback. She has made my profile strong with her expertise. I started very late for my SOP’s and LOR but she gave right amount of push and strict deadlines which helped me a lot. I am thankful to her and recommend others to join Scholar Strategy if they are planning to study in abroad.

Nistha is a brilliant counselor and takes genuine interest in helping you out. Her inputs and pointers on how to shape your personal statement pushes you to create a well-structured and concise essay. I would definitely recommend her to anyone aspiring to study abroad.

I have worked with Nistha on my MS applications for last 3 months. From day 1 she is available on phone and emails. She reviewed my SOP, resume and other documents thoroughly. All her suggestions have been beneficial to me.

Thank you Nistha, for all the guidance you have provided to me.

I opted for counseling from Scholar Strategy primarily to select a college that suited my individual and technical needs. Nistha was a great help being open to any discussions and she focused over my particular interests. Her technical experience in the same field helped me better. I can say Scholar Strategy did great for me.

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. But Nistha’s guidance helped me achieve this. I guess this explains everything I got from Nistha and from Scholar Strategy. Really thanks to Nistha and her support.
