A year ago, my best friend recommended The Future Makers, and I couldn't be happier that she did. During my first conversation with Narayani, she mentioned how difficult it is for students in India to find a genuine consultancy that doesn’t charge excessively and does the job right. She explained that this was the reason she and Subodh started The Future Makers, having experienced these challenges themselves as students abroad. I instantly related to her and knew I was choosing the right people. She was incredibly friendly and provided realistic advice about my master's study plans on our first ever phone call. Then I met Subodh, who, along with Narayani, forms an amazing duo. They assisted me from the very beginning, helping me list down universities and guiding me through the process until I received my US visa. Their expertise in perfecting my SOPs and LORs was invaluable. Throughout the year-long journey filled with anxiety and anticipation, their support and guidance made everything feel a lot easier. Their positive attitude was unwavering, and I truly believe that without their assistance, I wouldn’t have landed at Duke University. Narayani and Subodh are exceptionally good at what they do and even managed to crack jokes when I needed them the most. In my opinion, they are the best in the country. Thank you so much, guys—you’re the best! 🤍
