Stories from Our Students

"I got the good help in getting my admission. Overall experience was nice. The team is very good 👍🏻"
Azhar Abbas

"Everyone at One Attempt is super helpful and the best thing I found was, how flexible everyone was to my timings and availability. One attempt helped me get the required score in EA for London Business School. I highly recommend them."
Ayesha Jahangir
(London Business School)
My journey with 1Attempt began during my study of the GMAT. Ever since, this team has never failed to impress me with their efforts towards pushing each and every student to achieve his goals! After obtaining a reputable score, I found myself at the next phase of my application process (to masters in finance): the actual applications. These can be so tedious with writing essays, finding recommenders, filling various online forms & so on! I am so glad I enrolled myself into 1Attempt's admission counseling workshop that really helped bring together my application in a coherent manner. Be it interview preps or essay edits, there was always some sort of material 1Attempt had for me to ace these. Special mention goes to Mr. Giri Iyengar who has really helped my personality shine through my essays. Finally, I was very happy with my admissions results. I would definitely recommend 1Attempt to anyone looking for sustained team effort and good quality final results.
Reha Anand
(MS Finance- University of Oxford SBS, LSE, HEC-Paris)
When I joined Attempt I was really lost in terms of math knowledge and verbal proficiency. I found the course extremely well organized and user friendly, and after 1 month I was able to see the improvement! The teachers were professional and always had time to solve doubts and explain concepts again and again. Moreover, the online test of the 1Attempt play an important role too, when I face the real exam I felt confident and ready to ace it!! I am gonna start my MBA in Stern this fall and just can thank Attempt for all the support!!

Stories from Our Students

"Really helpful throughout the application process. Have a great and welcoming staff. "
Taanvi Maheshwari
UK Medical Student
"My experience at One Attempt has surpassed my expectations in every way possible. Not only did my tutors do everything they could to help me achieve the necessary UCAT score required by my university, but they also made the process of learning extremely enjoyable. So thank you for all the time and effort you put into helping me achieve such a fantastic score."
Layla Bashaireh
(Medicine - The University of Manchester)
"My experience with One Attempt has truly helped me in getting my desired scores in the UCAT. From building my confidence to clearing my doubts, my tutors went well and beyond in insuring that I was at my optimum state before giving my exam. I started my UCAT journey by taking classes at one attempt. Not only did they familiarize me to the exam but also set my mindset on how I will be preparing. After taking the classes I took a break to focus on my AS level examination and started once again by the end of June. I was able to reattend those classes I took previously to refresh myself. I practiced few questions for a month, building up my techniques and focusing on my accuracy. I had numerous individual sessions to focus on improving my accuracy and minimizing my mistakes. During my next month I focused on doing questions under timed pressure and this is when I started taking UCAT seriously and reviewed my progress by doing Mocks weekly. With the help of UCAT Classes, Numerous resources, and a ton of practice I was able to achieve my desired goals. The best tip is to make sure you are able to understand your mistake and why you went wrong to ensure it doesn’t happen again.
Siyam Rafiq

"One Attempt helped me with my UCAT preparation and with them I was able to achieve the score that I wanted. Trainers both gave me valuable tips on sections I was struggling with, which allowed me to improve significantly. With Wendell I was able to coordinate times for practice and lessons to consolidate my knowledge. Thank you One Attempt for all your support!"
