Now a Liwaza Coach

"Thank you to Liwaza for their support. Preparing for an MBA can seem like a mountain: GMAT, GRE, and TOEFL tests (where to start? how to prepare?), choosing among top business schools, writing essays... So many questions to which Liwaza provides clear answers and a structured framework. But beyond the preparation, it's above all a collective energy that pushes you to believe in your potential and exceed your limits. This initiative has the potential to strengthen the representation, still too weak, of African talent in the world's top MBAs. Today, I have the chance to contribute in turn as a Liwaza coach, to support other candidates in this adventure."

INSEAD

"In January 2024, Angela reached out on LinkedIn with an ambitious goal: join INSEAD's MBA for January 2026. As a Senior Auditor at Deloitte Cameroon, she had to manage everything alongside her demanding job: management tests, application documents, storytelling, interviews... a real marathon. What impressed me most was her determination. She joined the Liwaza community, and we worked together on every step: coaching for the management test, CV review, storytelling construction, and intensive interview preparation. 10 months later, the verdict came: Admitted to INSEAD."

Results Achieved

  • Admitted to INSEAD MBA (January 2026 intake)
  • Completed entire application process while working full-time at Deloitte
  • 10-month intensive preparation
