Katherine Manweiler

I'm an enthusiastic and resourceful professional with a decade of experience in venture capital, entrepreneurship and strategy consulting and an MBA from Harvard Business School. My 99th percentile GMAT score and prior work experience for a test prep company inform my approach to GMAT / GRE prep, but I know that the MBA application process is about more than just a test. I help my clients craft unique, holistic application materials that reflect their qualifications beyond scores and resume bullet points. In addition to my admissions guidance I offer career coaching to help clients break into VC and consulting as well as level up in their current roles. As a career coach I have helped friends and clients (particularly those with non-target backgrounds) break into consulting and venture capital and also advise fellow early-stage startup founders. My overall ethos is to help clients find what makes them different and use that as a strength. My versatile career across finance, consulting, and entrepreneurship as well as my prior experience as a career coach at HBS have informed my unique perspective on how to pivot between industries and get the most return on a top tier MBA program.
