Applying to Kellogg without a GMAT or GRE score was honestly stressful. I knew every other part of my MBA application had to work harder, especially the essays and resume.
I worked mainly with Gwen and Shimri, and they pushed me much harder than I expected in the best possible way. We rewrote essays again and again until the story actually felt personal and convincing instead of sounding like standard MBA language. At one point, I remember thinking this is hopeless, and actually thought about stopping the process in the middle, but Shimri calmed me down and said they truly believed in me and in my chances of admission. What helped most was that they never treated the test waiver like a weakness that needed excuses. Instead, they focused on making the rest of my profile stand out in a very confident and natural way. The process went smoothly, the interview prep was spot on, and, in the end, I was admitted to the Kellogg MBA program.
Looking back, I honestly don’t think another company could have helped a candidate like me get admitted to an M7 school without a GMAT or GRE. Kudos to Aringo!

I knew my profile and GMAT score were solid, but as I realized how competitive the MBA admissions process is, I decided to work with Aringo. Thanks to Gwen, Shimri and the entire Aringo team, I was admitted to five M7 schools. HBS, Wharton, Kellogg, Columbia, and Sloan, with generous scholarships at three of them. Their guidance was exceptional; Gwen and Shimri were incredibly patient, walking me through countless essays and CV revisions until every detail was polished. Their feedback was always constructive, never rushed, and their encouragement gave me real confidence by the time I hit submit. Aringo’s process is thorough, insightful, and tailored - exactly what I needed to maximise my chances. I’m thrilled with the outcome and highly recommend Aringo to anyone aiming for top MBA programs.

Let’s be honest: the MBA application process is usually a total slog, but Gwen and Shimri somehow managed to make it feel like a breeze. With a mediocre GMAT score, I knew I needed a sharp strategy to stand out at a place like MIT Sloan or Yale SOM, and this duo delivered exactly that.
Gwen is a total wizard with words. She took my rambling essay drafts and polished them until they were punchy and actually interesting to read. Shimri is the ultimate strategist; he’s direct, honest, and has a knack for what top schools are looking for. They didn't just "fix" my application; they found the best version of my story and put it front and centre.
What I loved most was how seamless and painless the whole thing was. There was no unnecessary stress or last-minute panic. They are a sharp, no-nonsense team that knows how to get results without the usual consultant drama. If you want a team that is actually fun to work with and knows their stuff inside out, Aringo is the one.

Securing admission to Chicago Booth felt like a monumental task, but with the ARINGO team and my incredibly knowledgeable consultant, Gwen Dreilinger, the overwhelming MBA application process became surprisingly manageable. Gwen's feedback on my resume and essays was always direct, insightful, and exactly what I needed to elevate my application. Her tireless dedication and unwavering support were truly remarkable, and I am deeply grateful for her mentorship. Once Gwen finished pocking, the rest of the ARINGO team joined in for further reviews and comments, helping me submit a stellar application.
What stood out was Gwen's exceptional responsiveness; any query or email was addressed promptly. The mock interview sessions, with ARINGO’s interview experts, along with the detailed interview intelligence reports, were also invaluable in preparing me for success. I wholeheartedly recommend ARINGO. Their consultants combine deep expertise with exceptional dedication.

I didn’t have much time for my application process, as my demanding job and GMAT prep took longer than anticipated. I spoke to my brother, who was working with Aringo, and after one conversation with Shimri from Aringo, I knew I was in great hands. He then matched me with my consultant Gwen and I realized opting for Aringo's services has proven to be a gratifying decision, one I've enthusiastically recommended to numerous friends. I received 4 out of 4 interviews and 3 acceptances and headed (with my brother 😊) to Harvard Business School (MS/MBA program) to embark on a new adventure. Wish me luck, thank you Aringo for making this possible!

I am absolutely thrilled to share my positive experience with aringo MBA admissions consulting, which played a crucial role in my successful admission to NYU Stern. I am immensely grateful to my exceptional consultant, Gwen, for her dedicated guidance throughout the entire process.
Gwen's expertise and commitment were truly commendable. She understood my concerns and aspirations, and her patient approach made me feel supported and encouraged at every step. She provided invaluable assistance in refining the structure and content of my application, ensuring that it truly showcased my strengths and accomplishments. Her insightful feedback on my essay drafts helped me craft compelling narratives that stood out among the competition.
Moreover, Gwen's amazing resume tips significantly enhanced the impact of my profile. She helped me highlight key achievements and skills in a way that resonated with the admissions committee. Her expertise in interview preparation was equally remarkable, as she conducted mock interviews that boosted my confidence and prepared me for any challenge.
Overall, aringo and Gwen created a comfortable and collaborative environment, where I felt heard and understood. Their exceptional support and guidance made my NYU Stern admission possible, and I cannot thank them enough for their invaluable assistance.

I was more than happy to work with aringo for my MBA applications. Initially, I tried applying my own but did not feel confident. I realized that this is the turning point of my life and I should give my best shot, this is when aringo came into the picture. My consultant took the time to listen to my whole story, as probing questions and guided me towards writing an effective story. All the aspects of my story were aligned with my goals. ARINGO’s professional yet listening to the client approach made the process more enjoyable. Since applying to schools is like a rollercoaster ride, it’s good to have someone on your side that’s not only helping with all aspects but also listening and making sure that you are aligned throughout the process. All in all, I applied to three schools and received 3 interviews and 2 admissions. I would definitely recommend aringo.

Thank you ARINGO! I got into HBS, Stanford, Wharton and Booth, most with scholarships. No way I would have done this without you, thanks for your help! Gwen (my consultant) and team were truly amazing and supportive in every step of the way.
They helped me craft a strong story, didn't hesitate to let me know when they thought I needed to take a different directions and helped me create a story that I felt was both strong and truly reflective of who I truly am.
A few year back I applied to undergrad schools in the US and didn't get in so I know it's all thanks to Aringo and Gwen that I was accepted.

I was talking to ARINGO for about two years before I actually started working with them. Shimri understood my background, worked with me on a project plan and guided me throughout the process, and when I got my GMAT score we started planning the best timeline. ARINGO does not rush you at any stage. They understand that applying to a B school is a meaningful process and the client’s one of the biggest decisions with many things at stake. The genuine interest Shimri showed was the point I decided that ARINGO will help me achieve my target schools. I told him that while I can share my stories, I lack the flair of writing. He paired me up with Gwen who is a senior consultant at ARINGO. She was incredible to brainstorm with and quickly understood my background, my story, and my goals. Gwen was amazing to work with, and I am happy with my result. The team was very approachable and was always available for my queries. The edits that she had on my essays, made them exceptional. I ultimately made it through Chicago Booth (full-ride scholarship) and will join their upcoming class of 2021. I cannot recommend Gwen and the ARINGO team enough!

I give the credit of my multiple admits to my amazing consultant Ms. Gwen Dreilinger and the entire team of aringo. After taking the GMAT, I started my hunt for the consultant that will suit me the most. I narrowed it down to two and chose aringo because of their personalized approach and honesty in assessing my odds to the programs I am intending to apply to. Gwen and the strategy team were able to help me brainstorm ideas and revise my essays so many times until they are perfect. I wasn’t an easy client, and my plans changed in the middle delaying my applications from R1 round 1 to round 2 without any issue from aringo. The application process can be very stressful. Gwen was a true partner who patiently helped me identifying my schools, my recommenders, giving me ideas to network, and everything that is needed. Gwen was very transparent and supportive at every step. And the final result was beyond my expectation- admits from Stanford, Wharton, Chicago, and LBS with some hefty scholarships as well.
I appreciate the dedication that aringo’s team has for their clients and I highly recommend them.
