School research hubs

Common questions
Essay Editing covers your essays, application questions, and resume. Application Review adds recommendation-letter strategy and a structured profile evaluation. Both services include multiple iteration rounds with no per-round fee. Compare services →
There is no fixed cap. The service runs until the application is submitted. One Stanford MBA admit went through nine versions of their Stanford essay without any additional fee.
Yes. A three-school bundle is the most common engagement and covers all essays, application questions, resumes, and recommendation strategy for each school. Adding a fourth or fifth school is a flat add-on per school.
Two to four days per essay round for active applications during R1 and R2. Mock interview bookings fill two to three weeks out during peak interview season (late October through February for R1, February through April for R2).
No service can ethically guarantee admission. F1GMAT guarantees the editing depth and the time investment. The application outcome depends on the full profile, the school's read of fit, and the year's applicant pool.
