The work
Three areas where technical depth decides the result: quant careers, MBA admissions, and Oxford, Cambridge and US STEM entry. Advice from someone who has done the job and sat on the other side of the table.

The first conversation is twenty minutes and costs nothing. The strategy hour that follows it is £250: I read your CV, transcript and scores beforehand, and the hour goes on where you stand and your realistic odds at each target. The reports are £79 each, and the practice and courses are open to everyone. See how it works, or the common questions.
What I do not do
Worth knowing before you book.
- Hourly tutoring. The strategy hour is the one-to-one offer; the preparation is in the reports and the practice banks.
- IELTS, and standalone SAT or ACT. Excellent people do this at a fifth of my fee. Use one of them. GMAT and GRE are different: the practice is in the GMAT and GRE banks.
- Writing your essays. I edit hard, sometimes brutally, but the words stay yours.
- Guarantees of admission. Nobody controls that outcome.
