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.

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.

I did some research on many admissions consulting firms and decided to go with Aringo due to a recommendation I got from a close friend who got into MIT the previous year with their assistance. When I made my decisions, little did I know that this will be one of the best decisions I ever made! The one thing that I loved about Gwen and every single one of the ARINGO reviewers is that they don’t sugar coat. They are brutally honest with the feedback at every stage from strategy, school selection, resume, essay to interview. I could always count on the team with their critical feedback. My story for each essay was finalized and they helped me to put across the unique aspects of my profile with customizations to each school. The Aringo team doesn’t just do the work, they make it personal and guide you on all- recommendation letters, interview preparation, etc. With the guidance of Gwen and Shimri, I successfully admitted to 2 top B-schools and had the opportunity to select the one best fit for me. Thank you Shimri, Gwen, and Aringo for making my MBA ambition a reality.

I am writing this review in the middle of my ARINGO experience, which is terrific. At first. I was intimidated by the daunting application process but after speaking many times to Shimri who answered all my doubts and calmed me down I jumped right into it. Shimri and I spoke on a daily basis and he is an awesome advisor. I decided to work with Gwen Dreilinger and could not be happier with our joint efforts. Shimri and Gwen devised the application strategy so that I am not overwhelmed with the process. They made it simpler and their extended knowledge of what each school is looking for made the difference in my essays. My final applications were reviewed by other ARINGO school experts and everything was up to the mark and the interview preparation was excellent.

Thanks to ARINGO, I will now be attending the Fall 2021 class of the prestigious school – INSEAD (my number 1 choice). I did get interviews to Chicago, Wharton, and LBS as well (but who cares, INSEAD is the best 😊 )

If you are deliberating over which admissions consultants to hire, look no further. ARINGO played a pivotal role in turning a distant dream of mine into a reality, helping me obtain admissions offers to five programs - including a full scholarship to one of them. The team with which I worked (Shimri, Gwen, Jenifer, and Emily) was masterful in assisting with the crafting of my story and application materials, highly attentive to my particular case, and consistently available. Five stars are not enough to express my satisfaction with ARINGO's services and my gratitude for the contribution the team has made to my future.

I got into Tuck with a high scholarship. Gotta thank Aringo for that.
Lots of pressure and unknowns when applying, so thank you Gwen for spectacular work on helping me fine-tune my profile and guiding me through the process. Applied to three top schools and it would have been 10x harder alone (if at all).

My suggestion for you the reader is to go for the school package for several schools and apply for more on your own.
I'm sure Shimri would advise the same. A BSchool education is an expensive one, and even a 10% scholarship in a top school would buy you this service back.

If you choose purchasing advising service I highly recommend Aringo. They are well organized and work professionally. Since the price is not negletable I would say that if you have the time and energy you might be able to write the application forms by yourself, but be sure that you'll work harder and will have to find what the schools want to know about you and how to present it.

The process was stressful for me, I was emotionally invested into it and it had it toll. My adviser, Gwen, did well in soothing my fears by pointing out and reminding me what are my key strengths. She taught well me how to write and how to "sell" my story better. It is something I'll carry with me.

Bottom line - with Aringo's help I've been accepted to two out of two schools, they have made good work in consulting me, and I'm sure they'll do great job for anyone else.
