Now a Liwaza Coach

"Thank you to Liwaza for their support. Preparing for an MBA can seem like a mountain: GMAT/GRE/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
