Why I Created the Angel Accel Online Course
It feels like it was just yesterday.
The knots in my stomach, the tightness in my chest, the pounding in my mind. I thought to myself, “Damn, I was not prepared for this.”
I was:
Alone in the application process
Sick of the condescending messaging
Questioning if I had the “it factor”
Longing for a light at the end of the tunnel
Craving direction and inspiration
I researched, strategized, and fine-tuned my applications for hundreds of hours (at one point not leaving my room for 10 days), and it worked out. I learned the hard way, but you can learn the easier way. The gravity of MBA applications has the power to debilitate you, unless you take control.
This is why I created the Angel Accel Online Course. It’s been my focus (more like fixation) for the past several months, and I am over the moon to share it with you for 5 main reasons:
1: It’s budget-friendly.
Say hellooooo to the elephant in the room. There is absolutely nothing cheap about MBA admissions and the cost list feels never-ending: tutoring, GRE, GMAT, consulting, coaching, application fees, and more.
It’s common practice for admissions consultants to charge over $400 per hour, some even pushing past $1,000 per hour, and oftentimes charging double for mock interviews (even if they didn’t get into Harvard). Some applicants spend over $20,000 in one application cycle.
On the other hand, the Angel Accel Online Course is $15 per month, cancel any time. It’s cheaper than Netflix, and there’s even a lesson on How to Self-Coach – so you could be the person getting into your dream school after spending $15, which is 0.075% of what your hypothetical classmate spent above.
The $15 price point has been non-negotiable for me (against the pleas of my advisors to raise the price) because I want it to be worth your investment, even if you only use it for a day. The course gives you an edge no matter what stage you’re in – whether you’re planning on applying in three years or if you have your interview tomorrow. If you’re still debating whether or not to apply for MBA programs, you’d get a comprehensive picture of what the process is like, without actually investing the time, money, and energy into taking the plunge.
2: It helps you save time.
According to McKinsey, the average professional spends 28% of the work day in their email, which is the equivalent of 2.6 hours per day. On average, professionals check their email every 37 minutes.
With the Angel Accel Online Course, you don’t need to spend another second in your inbox. You don’t need to email me to coordinate a time for a session and then check your email every 37 minutes until we set a time. You are busy enough with your work, applications, and personal life! You also don’t need to worry about carving out a free hour in your 14-hour work day, committing to a time, mentally preparing to be on camera, only to have a last-minute work deliverable pop up. Everything you need is at your fingertips – the Angel Accel Online Course is ready at your command.
The online course model also shifts your entire approach to your applications. Rather than being reactive (“fixing” application materials that you’ve already poured hours into), we are being proactive (strategizing with foresight and techniques from ground zero to streamline the process and optimize your outcomes).
3: It makes me more accessible.
In 2023, Harvard Business School received over 8,000 applications.
Oftentimes, clients book 2-hour sessions with me, which means I can only help up to 4 clients in one day. That’s 20 clients in a 5-day work week, which is less than 0.25% of the applicant pool for Harvard alone.
The Angel Accel Online Course enables me to be available at virtually all hours to not just 20 applicants, but all applicants. This is especially beneficial for international clients who want my coaching but simply don’t have a schedule that aligns with mine. Anyone can sign up for the course, no matter where they are or what they’re applying for (in fact, the first person who signed up for the course is a PhD applicant).
4: You get a feel for my coaching style.
I am not for everyone – and any coach or consultant who attempts to convince you that they are for everyone is over-promising and under-delivering.
The coaching I do is transformational. It is not surface level in any way. It’s strategic, strengths-based, meticulous, and hyper-personalized. There is no such thing as a “quick glance” in my world. You can see exactly how I interact with clients in the client case studies chapter, exactly how I introduce new concepts and build them upon each other to create frameworks, and exactly how I lace psychology, metaphors, and personal experiences into my coaching.
This is what has worked for my clients and myself, but I 100% respect the opportunity to explore other avenues. Whatever you decide, find an accurate pulse to make an informed decision. Self-discovery and self-knowledge is the first step to a successful future, and I admire those who have the courage to find their own path.
5: It streamlines the process and maximizes your benefit.
Cliches don’t help. “Own your story” means nothing if you don’t know what your story is in the first place.
The Angel Accel Online Course throws cliches out the window and cuts through the bullsh!t. It gives you revelations on several make-or-break elements such as It’s Not an Interview and What They Don’t Tell You About Deferred MBA Admissions. It gives me the freedom to coach you with no limits or time constraints, which is why I dive deep into the purpose and methodology for each topic.
For those who decide to opt into private coaching after taking the course, we can use an accelerated timeline because I already know what you know, and you already know what I expect you to know. We have already level-set and the course is now our springboard to launch you closer to your dreams.
I hope this gave you a glimpse into my headspace and the “why” behind the course! Click here if you’re ready for DREAM SCHOOL COACHING, ON YOUR OWN TERMS.
