Admission with no GMAT- Aringo rocked!

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

I can’t say enough good things about the Aringo team. The way they approach their clients is very unique and personal. Chaya was available anytime we needed to chat. She works meticulously. And even if we are not on the same page for the suggested edits, she would take the effort to explain me in depth until we both agree.

Her knowledge of what the school is looking for is very extensive. My essays got moulded accordingly. As I was playing only on my profile (with no GMAT score) and that too in round 2, I did not keep my expectations very high. But Chaya believed in me. I got interview calls from Ross, and Darden.

The interview preparation was also very structured. I was able to crack both Ross and Darden- I couldn’t be happier. Thank you so much, Chaya, to make those admit happen which I did not dare to dream of.

I am so grateful Aringo helped me fulfil my dream and land an amazing full time MBA admission!

UCLA – here I come!

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by membership [?]

I first met Aringo 2 years ago, I was debating if my GMAT score, would be enough for a top business school. I was actually prepared to compromise on some tier 2 schools, and then I met Shimri and the Aringo strategy team. Shimri assured me that, my profile, a programmer in a big tech firm, can be presented in a strong manner, and I should aim high for some dream MBA programs. I worked with the incredible Chaya Benyamin on 5 applications and received interviews and admissions to all and some scholarship money too (including Cornell Tech, NYU Tech, and UCLA).

I could not have done this without the entire Aringo team who share incredible knowledge and experience. Their process includes multiple rounds of reviewing, commenting and strengthening. Chaya is my NUMERO UNO. I owe you so much!

Off to UCLA of course, for a life-changing experience. Thank you Aringo!

Reaching out to ARINGO was the best decision made for my MBA applications. Shimri and Chaya guided me from day one and helped me with everything that I needed for my applications. I come from an unorthodox background, both personally and professionally, and ARINGO helped me turn my diversity into my strength! They helped me align my essays, shaping my resume, etc. ARINGO’s process is very streamlined and they are very resourceful. I applied to various top programs and got 5 out of 5 interviews. The result- I received admits from MIT, Wharton, and Kellogg! The icing on the cake was Wharton admit with a whooping full scholarship!!! I could have never got 3 M7 admits without ARINGO. Kudos to you guys!

Full scholarship with Chicago – thank you Chaya and Aringo

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

I cannot stress enough how much the entire Aringo team helped me throughout the process of my MBA applications.


As a software engineer and programmer in a big American company, I thought the fact that I was coming from an over-represented background and pretty “regular” career will not allow me to get into a top MBA program. I was wrong! My GPA was average, and Initially, my GMAT score was 710 and I wasn’t sure I can apply to top schools.

Shimri, Chaya, Jenifer, and the team, reassured me that my GMAT is just one part of the application. After working on the applications, and receiving some confidence in my candidacy, I ended up improving my GMAT to 740. I applied to 5 schools, received 3 interviews (HBS, MIT, and Chicago) and am happily going to Chicago Booth with a full scholarship



Yes, you can get accepted to these schools with low GMATs. I am looking forward to my Booth journey very much. So far, I know I did one right decision which was to work with ARINGO!!!


Thanks, Aringo, you are the best!

Amazing service!

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

As a candidate from an overrepresented demographic, I was worried that I wouldn't come across as unique to any admissions committee. Aringo with Chaya as the primary consultant changed all that in our first session. She listened carefully to my stories and helped me to think about my experiences, interests, and skills in an entirely new way, to realize that I do have special gifts to offer any M7, and that my future could be even bigger than I initially imagined with an MBA. Throughout the process, Chaya was always responsive and honest; on top of her years of experience, I felt I could depend on her advice because she had my best interest at heart. I loved every application I submitted, and so did Wharton and Harvard. If you want an admissions consultant who sees the best in you and can help adcoms see your unique abilities too, hire Chaya from Aringo.

A warm recommendation on working with Aringo

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

I took two full consulting packages with Aringo, and I could not be more satisfied with the process and the results. My consultant Chaya was very collaborative and helped me to make my application oriented towards what Business Schools are looking for in a candidate. In addition, I got full support from Hila, who helped me with any question or dilemma I had throughout the process.

Eventually I got admitted to both business schools with scholarships. I highly recommend Aringo for anyone who's going through the process of getting into a top MBA program. Their advises and experience throughout the process is invaluable.

Thanks ARINGO! Made it into LBS with you!

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

ARINGO was just great!

My essays, CV, basically everything would not have been as good as it was with the help of ARINGO. Because their consultants really know, what they talk about. They know, what to focus on, what not and what is perceived as important for which school.

Saved me a lot of time and got me into my favorite business school!

They are very fast and accurate in responding, very flexible and really a great help. For all the material you have to submit, further tips, the interview preparation and even on general GMAT tips.

Can just recommend them!

Great experience

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

I would like to highly recommend Aringo for admission consulting services.
The overall experience was friendly, very professional and encouraging.
The main goal in the company’s guidelines is to help you express yourself in the best way and as a result, working with Aringo and especially with their consultant enabled me to open my eyes to great things about my abilities, revealed more of my qualities and helped me to transfer my ideas into writing.
It is very important in the MBA admission process for one to be surrounded in a warm and positive environment, which Aringo provides, and to always believe in yourself.

Thank You ARINGO

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

My husband and I applied to all of the spanish schools, with only 1 year post BA experience and not so great GMAT scores (his was 610, mine was a bit higher). We worked with Chaya Benyamin , who was professional, supportive and availble. The all-inclusive package was a great choice- it covered EVERYTHING from A to Z and while the service was not cheap it was worth it- we were accepted to all 3 schools we applied to! We definitely recommend ARINGO for anyone who is thinking of applying, especially in a couple, which is a field they specialize in (so I've learned)
