The MM MBA Headstart Program
The MM MBA Headstart Program is meant for candidates who are committed to getting into the best MBA programs and are willing to put in the work to maximize their chances. Typically, to get into one of the M7, you need more than just professional achievements and a good GMAT score – you need a well-rounded profile with extra-curriculars, leadership and a passion. Typically, starting with us 2 years before you want to start your MBA, or 1 year before you submit your applications, we work on ensuring that your profile is built in accordance with the values and attributes your dream colleges look for.
As a part of Headstart, a dedicated mentor will work personally with you throughout the year to create a unique action plan that will address these areas:

Success Stories
Vidur K.
Columbia Business School
"Rashi is the perfect end-to-end support for someone looking to pursue an MBA. Her knowledge of the admissions process and individual universities across the globe is second to none. I enthusiastically recommend Rashi to anyone in need of consulting for this challenging phase of their careers."
Kush V.
Kellogg School of Management
"Rashi assisted me during my business school applications. My aim was to secure a spot in round 1 of the application process. Rashi ensured that my essays were comprehensive and tailored to meet the requirements of each and every school I applied to. She was proactive during this process, given that we were in different countries. Additionally, she was optimistic and very transparent regarding the timelines and milestones to be achieved. She provided creative ideas and pushed me to take a more structured approach. As a result, I was able to secure a spot in one of the top 10 business schools. It was an absolute pleasure to collaborate with her!"
Arushi P.
Wharton with $50,000 scholarship and Kellogg
"Mentor Mpact came highly recommended by a close friend. While looking for admission consultants, I wanted someone who could give me personal attention, understand my non-traditional profile and be with me every step of the way. I am glad to say that Rashi did all the above and more. I come from a highly technical background but Rashi made sure to understand my journey and highlight my unique strengths. She was confident in my choice of schools which helped me narrow down my options quickly. She was always ready with reassuring words when I doubted myself. Even when we were close to the deadlines, Rashi was always a call/message away for last-minute doubts and questions. She was as invested in my application process as I was. I got interview invites from all the schools I applied to with Rashi (Wharton, Booth and Kellogg). Interview preparation calls with her were very helpful. All in all, a very positive experience. I am glad I stuck to my gut instinct at the beginning of the application process and chose to work with Mentor Mpact."
Hrithik B.
Harvard Business School
"At a time when I had decided to pursue an MBA program from one of the noted schools in the USA, I found myself searching for a proper plan to turn this career aspiration into reality. I am thankful to Rashi for providing me an opportunity to be associated with her through my journey of getting selected to Harvard Business School. True to her organisation’s name, she was an excellent mentor to me and has played a lasting impact in identification of my strengths, shortcomings, and the correspondingly appropriate career path. Her approach towards encouraging me to analyse, re-analyse, and improve upon my thought process so as to bring my thoughts on paper provided just the right guidance I was looking for at the start of our association. Despite my anxiety around the process, Rashi often comforted my nerves by staying fully committed to my application process. She was always one call/ one email away. I strongly encourage future MBA candidates to meet her and improve upon their probability of making a competitive MBA application."
Pranoy C.
Chicago Booth
"I had been thinking about applying for more than a year but did not have a lot of clarity in terms of what the process of admissions would be like and what would be an ideal approach towards getting a good admit. The first few interaction sessions with Rashi, especially the information exchanged concerning my career goals and inclinations, helped me get a better sense of what my goals should narrow down to and the schools that were apt for me. In the subsequent months, I found her to be very adept at getting my experiences and goals across in a structured and succinct manner. Working with her on edits, I saw a significant improvement in the quality of my essays as time progressed. I believe the biggest bonus has to be the attention to detail that she paid to every piece of writing that ensued while maintaining an overall view of the flow of ideas across the pieces for each school. I sincerely thank Rashi for all her efforts and wish her the best for the future."
Arjun C.
LBS 40k scholarship, INSEAD and UCLA full scholarship
"I had a strong academic profile but extremely nontraditional professional background that made me doubtful about my chances at top business schools. Through brainstorming with Rashi, I was able to iron out relevant experiences that helped me communicate my leadership skills and demonstrate maturity and readiness for an MBA program. Regarding the essays, Rashi always gave excellent feedback and guided me through multiple rounds of edits until we were both satisfied with the outcome. Her attention to detail and astuteness to focus on values aligned with each school’s unique culture really impressed me and I was very happy with how my applications turned out. As I started getting interview calls, my confidence increased and Rashi guided me through the whole process by preparing an extensive list of interview questions and tweaking and polishing my responses, which made me fully equipped to ace my interviews. As results started rolling out, I received good news from multiple schools and not only realized my goal of gaining admission into both of the top 2 European programs but was awarded a scholarship at one as well! I am exceedingly thankful to Rashi and would highly recommend mentor mpact to anyone with aspirations of attending a top business school."
