Want to create a top 10% application?

I pour my knowledge and experience in cracking highly competitive graduate programs (except MBAs) on LinkedIn throughout the year.

From being clueless to bagging offers from their top choices.

Application truly reached its full potential

I had the foundational content for my Statement of Purpose, but it was through the exceptional guidance and expertise of Rubin that my application truly reached its full potential. His ability to refine and structure my ideas into a compelling and coherent narrative played a pivotal role in strengthening my profile.

Thanks to his support, I was successfully admitted to Virginia Tech and the highly prestigious EIT Digital Master School (KTH Royal Institute, Sweden) in Europe. I am sincerely grateful for his professionalism, attention to detail, and deep understanding of what makes a strong graduate application. I would highly recommend his services to anyone seeking to craft a powerful and impactful SOP.

Extremely personalized, at a fraction of what these people charge!

Working with Rubin has been a pleasant experience. Though his area of expertise had been writing statements for applicants targeting US/UK universities, he did an amazing job of writing statements specific to my field at the universities I was applying in Europe. There wasn’t a single instance where the deadlines set for the statements had to be extended, despite whatever personal commitments he had. I’d 100% recommend taking Rubin’s services for foreign applications.

My overall experience has been great! I’m very satisfied with the outcomes as well. Thank you so much for your time and effort. I really appreciate the detailed knowledge transfer sessions and your approach to handling various statements—be it SOP, PS, diversity, essay questions, technical questions, etc.

Your writing skills were amazing and I loved how you were able to connect my technical and social experiences in a seamless manner. Your techniques were very precise and pertinent. The brainstorming sessions really helped me when I was confused/stuck and you were quite responsive whenever I needed any assistance.

I also admire the fact that you were very genuine and patient throughout the process! I am really grateful for your services and wish you all the best in your future endeavors! Would definitely recommend it to others!

Was told that I won’t get good offers by other big-name consultants, but admitted into 6/6 top universities

Your counselling style is very unique and well-focused on the student’s interests and ambitions. I had spoken to almost 6 counselors, among them big names, but always got a negative response from each of them regarding my interest in pursuing an unconventional course. A few were too expensive, and a few told me that I won’t be able to get into any good uni or secure a good job and that I should stick to industrial engineering.

On the contrary, your way of counselling gave me so much clarity on what I have and lack, and how I could stand out with my profile. Usually other consultants like to make a uniform profile for every student but you really put yourself in the shoes of the student and the long conversations, the way you push the student to think about the idea/theme of their essay rather than just serving content, I feel helped me a lot to be very precise with my essay and even gave me so much clarity on what I could do during and after masters.

I absolutely adore how you keep a thread throughout the essays and the application. Of course, no doubt the fee is minimal for the exceptional service you provide. I also love that you are very organised and stick to deadlines.

Rubin Sir’s guidance was instrumental in shaping my college applications. We began brainstorming ideas months before my first deadline, breaking everything down step by step—figuring out the right angles for my essays, refining my narrative, and making sure my voice came through in every word. He has this way of asking just the right questions that make you rethink and refine your writing without losing your voice. With offers from JHU, UCLA, USC, BU, UC San Diego, UIUC, NEU, and more, I genuinely couldn’t have done this without his support. I’m beyond grateful for his patience, insight, and honesty.

His ability to assess each situation individually and provide tailored advice is, in my opinion, his greatest strength

Offers from (Technology & Policy): ETH Zurich, TU Delft

The edits and suggestions I received were truly essential in helping me highlight my strengths effectively. After reading numerous other motivation letters, I realized that Rubin’s critical insights addressed key aspects I had overlooked in my letter, strengthening my case for why I want to pursue this course.

His ability to assess each situation individually and provide tailored advice is, in my opinion, his greatest strength. In my case, as someone transitioning fields, he not only offered thoughtful guidance but also shared valuable insights on how I can demonstrate my acumen towards the new field, which in turn greatly supported my application.

From following LinkedIn posts to top university offers

Rubin helped me in many different ways. I first got to know him through his LinkedIn posts. I used to read his posts and suggestions and apply them whenever possible. Later, when I was planning to pursue higher education, I immediately thought of reaching out to Rubin.

He helped me in numerous ways. First, he guided me in understanding what I truly wanted to do in my career. Then, he narrowed down my options and provided valuable tips on selecting the right university, which was crucial. He also carefully curated a well-personalized set of documents that accurately reflected my intentions.

Even though I often pressured him, he remained calm and even went the extra mile by creating an additional document that wasn’t part of our original agreement.

To sum it up, working with Rubin not only guarantees strong documentation but also helps you gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your goals.

His personal approach made me feel comfortable with the application process

Offers from (Computer Science, AI): Northwestern University, New York University, and more…

My first encounter with Rubin Sir was through his LinkedIn post, where he shared a comprehensive list of universities in the U.S. along with their respective fields. This valuable resource hooked me onto his account, as it provided detailed educational content that felt like the best-curated study abroad information all in one place.

When I started working with Rubin Sir, we began from scratch to navigate the entire application journey. I remember precisely how he gave me a complete rundown of the timelines and what would be expected of me at each point along the way. Unlike other consulting firms and name-brand agencies, where I would typically submit a Google form to summarize my academic and professional endeavors, Rubin Sir had one-on-one conversations with me. His personal approach made me feel comfortable with the application process, allowing me to share in-depth opinions and views on each important aspect.

I felt like I was reliving and documenting every relevant event, no matter the size. This process was pivotal in helping me understand my holistic standing in the application journey. With Rubin Sir, I never felt like just another profile in a vast sea of deserving students and applicants. I felt exceptionally heard and cared for, which significantly eased the anxiety I had before starting this journey, particularly after my previous experiences with a well-known study abroad agency.

I am sincerely grateful for the experience I had with Rubin Sir during the application process. He not only surpassed my expectations but also consistently went above and beyond. The guidance he provided was invaluable, helping me refine my interests and areas of excellence. Throughout the timeline of my application, I never felt like I was engaged in this process for the sake of an end result; it seemed like a natural progression.

I had a great experience with the letters, essays and the CV. Rubin’s questionnaires were great and helped a lot with focusing on the important parts of the overall profile that need to be highlighted for a graduate program. He was also very accommodating during the entire process. I would highly recommend his services to everyone applying to grad school, his knowledge is exceptional!

8 admits out of 11 applications!

Offers From (Computer Engineering): Texas A&M University, University of Southern California, North Carolina State University, and more…

I got really good support throughout the process. Everything was very organic. Very good grasp of existing trends. Every document, including the CV and SOP, was ensured it is tailor made for you which requires first understanding the client and what their needs. College selection list was very realistic and results do speak for it.

Based on anecdotal experiences I have accumulated from friends and acquaintances, the usual consulting companies are trying to scale, and while doing this they lose track of the client and make everything robotic and bulk of the work needs to be done by the client. It’s not the case here.

Working with Rubin has transformed my master’s application journey. I reached out to him well in advance of the application deadline, feeling lost and unsure about the requirements and how admissions committees would assess my profile.

What sets Rubin apart is his unique ability to empathize with applicants, stepping into their shoes to understand what admissions committees are looking for in an application. His approach is not about simply jotting down achievements or hyping up profiles but about truly understanding the applicant’s and the admission committee’s perspective. Rubin did dedicated research to understand each university’s requirements. I applied to over 10 universities and Rubin drafted Statements of Purpose (SOPs) tailored to each school’s criteria. This personalized approach worked for me , with admits from some of my top choice universities, many of which I had initially perceived as out of reach. Rubin’s integrity shows in his commitment to accurately representing the applicant’s accomplishments, focusing on the impact of academic and research projects rather than overstating achievements.

His keen attention to detail and insistence on understanding the nuances of each project’s significance resonated authenticity with the admissions committees. When it came to shortlisting colleges, Rubin’s expertise was invaluable. He listened to my preferences and provided insights into my chances of admission at various institutions. He helped me to make informed decisions by connecting me with students from different colleges, allowing me to gain firsthand insights and this helped me on finalizing my university as well.

I have recommended him to several friends, all of whom have experienced the same exceptional level of support and guidance. Rubin, thank you for being an integral part of one of the most significant milestones in my life.

I am very happy with the overall experience. Interacting with him was always a delight, and he eased the daunting process of applying abroad. Rubin has this unique talent for refining information, unlike anyone else. Additionally, Rubin has always been very responsive, promptly assisting me with urgent admission-related matters whenever needed. Perhaps most importantly, Rubin is a genuine individual whom I confidently turn to for any advice, and he has consistently inspired me to strive for more than I thought possible. I wholeheartedly endorse his services to everyone.

Streamlined and efficient

Offer from (Computer Science): Georgia Tech (Single Application)

The entire process was very streamlined and efficient. For each document that has to be prepared, there is a meeting to understand what I had to offer, there is research on what information is needed for the document, and justice was done as to how it was tailored according to me. Overall, I was extremely happy with the entire process which was totally worth the money.
