Hello,

 

I'm new to this forum. I would like to hire a consultant to help me with my grad school application process. Does anyone know someone good you can refer me to?

 

Cheers!

I know one in the Philadelphia area if that's where you are. Send me a message.

Personally, I wouldn't waste your money.  I can't imagine how a consultant could help you other than to edit your personal statement.

 

You'd be surprised. Especially in my field. Everything from dress/grooming and mannerisms to prepping answers to interview questions in your head and being able to take concise examples of an experience and being able to utilize that no matter the questions. And so much more.

The career center at my school offers free job interview coaching and practice; they say grad applicants can benefit from it as well.  They may offer something similar at your school.

 

As for the GRE, there are plenty of books and websites (ETS, to name one) where you can get practice.

 

As for your GPA, you've either got that or you don't.

 

As for lab or clinical experience, you can find that on your own (for free).

 

As for maturity, you can be coached on how to appear mature enough for grad school, but if you aren't there yet, it's better if you don't fool yourself or others and get into a bad situation.

 

As for connections, you can make those on your own as well, believe it or not.

 

Yep, I'm with Juilletmercredi.  Hard to see why you would want to pay for dubious help when you can get what you need on your own for free.
