My MBA Path

 THIS IS THE MBA APPLICATION SUPPORT YOU’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR

The MBA admissions world is full of noise—thousands of outlets, endless opinions, and a lot of well-intentioned guessing. Even advice from MBA AdCom experts often stays too generic, giving you direction but no real feedback.

So your choices? They still feel like a shot in the dark.

There’s a better way.

MBA ABC is a rare opportunity to work directly with a former Dean of MBA Admissions. Here, you won’t just get general tips—you’ll get deep, line-by-line feedback on your resume and essays, so every word strengthens your candidacy.

Through live coaching and detailed reviews, I help you refine your materials until they’re MBA AdCom-ready. No more second-guessing—just a strategy that gives you the strongest possible shot at admission.

Don’t Let Blind Spots Hold You Back

Applying to top MBA programs is tough enough—you can’t afford to let blind spots or the overwhelming noise of admissions advice throw you off course.

You don’t need more advice. You need direct, hands-on support.

That means weekly live sessions where you can ask real-time questions, get expert insights, and tackle your biggest challenges—plus real, line-by-line feedback on your resume and essays.

Not templates. Not vague pointers. But deep, detailed reviews that help you refine every section of your application until it’s MBA AdCom-ready.

The challenge? This level of high-touch support has only been available to candidates paying thousands for 1:1 consulting. Not anymore.

Now, you can get deep, direct feedback and expert coaching at a fraction of the cost—all while being part of a community of ambitious candidates like you.

I’ve reviewed thousands of MBA applications…

 

A former Dean of MBA Admissions, I’ve been part of the graduate admissions space for more than a decade. I’ve been the head of an MBA Admissions Committee and the person in charge of setting admissions policies and making the toughest admissions calls.

Later, I was the first Principal of the Adult Learner Recruitment division of EAB, a Vista Equity Partners portfolio company. And just before launching My MBA Path, I spent two years as Managing Director of The MBA Tour, a subsidiary of the Graduate Management Admissions Council, where I partnered with every top MBA program and led the digitization of the business when the pandemic hit.

But before I did all this, I was an MBA candidate. An under-resourced one and more than a little intimidated by the application process. Born and raised in Bulgaria, I dreamed of getting my MBA but I had nowhere to turn to find the guidance to navigate the process. It took me ten years and a stroke of luck (moving to the US) to finally pursue my dream and enroll in the MBA program at Babson College. My MBA changed my career and life and gave both a powerful new direction, culminating in my ability to in turn open the door for others.

MBA Application Boost Camp was created because everyone deserves to work with a top MBA admissions expert. It is everything I teach to candidates in my 1:1 practice but now at a fraction of the price.

If you’re committed to making this year the year you get admitted to a top MBA program, I can’t wait to slash that learning curve and help you play a bigger game.

See you there,

 
 
 
Before starting the program, I was unsure if I would be able to get the advice and guidance I needed in a group setting - so happy to be proven wrong. The material review was more comprehensive and holistic than I had imagined, almost like an actual adcom member was reviewing my app.

  • This course is for you if you are applying in the next 3-6 months and you want to make sure you don’t take any wrong turns in the road! It is very much for you if you recognize the value a real MBA AdCom adds in the admissions process but you don’t have the budget to work with me 1:1.

  • You work directly with me as part of a group. In the live coaching sessions you will get answers to your questions and you will work to apply the advice to your candidacy. The most important part? You will receive personalized feedback on your resume and essays!

  • MBA Application Boost Camp is the only online program created and personally led by a former Dean of MBA Admissions. Everything you learn is backed by actual MBA AdCom expertise. And it is so much more than an online program. You work with me live every week so you’ll never be left to guess how to apply the advice to your unique background or what your next step is. And this is the only program where you receive personalized review and feedback on your resume and MBA Admissions essays. As one early participant, now a Booth MBA student, said, “Petia has created a game-changer in MBA admissions consulting!”

  • This course is intentionally not focused on tactics or templates for any one particular school - that’s because you need an overarching strategy for your MBA application first! What you will learn can be applied in your MBA application to any of your dream programs in the US or Europe. And in the live workshops and co-working sessions we will work on customizing your essays approach for each school.

  • MBA ABC runs for 10 weeks - after that you can opt in to continue on a month-to-month basis for as long as you need.

  • Take it from this former MBA AdCom, essay templates are the worst thing that can happen to you. They limit your thinking and take away your ability to present your story in your unique way. The WORST thing that can happen to a beautiful MBA story is for it to be twisted, turned, and suffocated to fit someone else's mold. Instead, my goal in creating this course is to support you to create your best possible application, one that could only have been created by your wonderful, unique self.

“This is a rare low-cost coaching model.

Whitmore is not merely personable, with a perpetual smile and welcoming eyes, she is more importantly genuinely interested in the people who come into her orbit. Her advice comes from a knowledgeable reservoir of experience and is delivered as casually as a dinner conversation with a long-time friend.

Her typical clients heap much praise on her, calling Whitmore “an amazing consultant who really cares about her client’s success.” Adds a successful applicant who has joined the latest MBA class at Wharton: “She is extremely dedicated, professional, and provides candid and immensely valuable feedback to empower you to put your best application forward.”
