With more than 25 years of experience, the MBA Counseling area aims to guide professionals who wish to pursue an MBA abroad (or other programs, such as LLM, undergrad, etc.). The orientation goes through all stages of the application process: from choosing the program suited to your needs, to preparing for the admissions process for the world’s most competitive business schools, such as Harvard, MIT, and Stanford, among others. Almost 2,000 clients have already been served, with a 92% approval rate and more than 3,000 attained admissions, out of which 76% lie in the top 15 business schools in the USA, and the top 3 in Europe. The guidance on the strategies and the preparation of applications is personalized and individual. In order to offer a full-service solution to our customers, MBA Empresarial has teamed up with Philadelphia Consulting, JCaro and The MBA Wire, and internationally with Veritas Prep, a global leader in online preparation for the GMAT.

The MBA at Stanford was one of the most important and transformative experiences of my life. There I had access to tools, people and opportunities that enabled me to re-signify my career and align it with my life purpose. Ricardo and team were fundamental at this stage, understanding my profile, helping me choose which schools fit into what I was looking for and guiding me in the application process.
A work that is very serious, deep and personalized, which has been transformed into a partnership for life! I am forever grateful! -
Fifteen years ago, when I made the decision to do an MBA abroad, I understood the extent and impact that this decision would have on my professional life. In that way, I knew that I needed to enter a first-rate school and I looked for the best professionals to support me in this project. The first name that was recommended to me was that of Ricardo Betti, and today, looking back, I recognize how important this work was for the success of this challenge. As an entrepreneur and dental surgeon, my profile had particularities that could be an advantage or a disadvantage, depending on how this background difference was presented. At this point, Ricardo's experience and competence placed this difference under the right prism, which was definitely decisive for the outcome of this endeavor. I am sure that Ricardo and MBA Empresarial can also contribute in a decisive manner to the candidates for the best business schools, just as it was for me.

MBA Empresarial was with me from beginning to end in the long admission process for the MBA and MPA programs. With them there is no magic formula. The work is "tailor-made". I'm very grateful to Ricardo Betti. He was a true coach from start to finish. As a matter of fact, he continues to be my great mentor!

MBA Empresarial/Ricardo Betti was fundamental in the process of guiding the best way to translate my experience to the demands/questions of each school’s essays. In addition, the support in choosing which programs best fit my profile and the strategy of applying on the first deadlines were fundamental to my acceptance into the MBA at Harvard.

Those who have studied at one of the best universities and business schools in the world have surely heard several times: "those were the best two years of my life" or "one of my MBA colleagues was appointed CEO"! Because of this I'm not surprised with the fact that my best friends have studied with me at Wharton and that Sundar Pichai, Wharton Grad 2002, has been named CEO of Google. Whether from personal experience or professional perspective, one of the critical factors to be accepted into a top school is self-knowledge to know "what matters most to you, and why?" (Classic Stanford question)! And it was precisely in this aspect that MBA Empresarial made all the difference for me. Ricardo Betti, the best MBA coach in my opinion, made me know myself more as a human being, be proud of my achievements, and know what made me the most difference as a candidate. Coaching is not telling you what you should write in applications, but rather, asking the questions and reflections that lead the candidate to make the decisions and the most appropriate choices. I was very happy and proud when I saw that Ricardo wrote a chapter in the book "Vale a Pena" telling my story. I have no doubt that this story would have been different had it not been for MBA Empresarial. After years of financial market experience with treasury, asset management, investor relations and equity research, I am currently working with HR talent from a large bank, and my tip for anyone who wants to pursue their MBA in one of the world's top business schools is to count on the support of MBA Empresarial!

The Business MBA has been with me at very important moments in my life. Our relationship began when I participated in the selection process for the Itaú internship program. The professionalism impressed me, although they made the mistake of approving me in the process!: ) Afterwards, MBA Empresarial helped me in another very important stage: the MBA. I was approved in the 4 schools that I applied to on the first round and the advice and support of Ricardo were fundamental. With so much help, I built a relationship of friendship and affection that transpires whenever we meet. Thanks for everything!
