He knew I was applying to a tough set of schools to get into – and told me clearly where my profile was weak and where I would need to strengthen it. He’s always available to help – and also kept me calm when I was stressed out after I hit the submit button!
I worked with Karthik this year and was admitted to HBS!
I really, really enjoyed the experience. Karthik’s process forces you to introspect and think deeply about what you want from an MBA. It helps lay out all your achievements and strengths which make the process of filling out the application much easier. He helped me highlight the best parts of my candidacy which I’m sure helped me stand out of the pile!
Karthik also knows where to push you – he made me retake my GMAT and I think the additional 20 points that came out played a big role in making my application more competitive. He knew I was applying to a tough set of schools to get into – and told me clearly where my profile was weak and where I would need to strengthen it.

Working with Karthik is a no-brainer for me – I would definitely recommend him and August Academy to anyone looking to pursue an MBA!
