I will start with the most important facts: I got a deal for three schools applications with Aringo - Ravit Warsha was my consultant. I have applied to three schools with Ravit's help and to a forth school on my own. All four schools had an average GMAT of 20-33 points above my 660 score. The fact that I got accepted to all three schools I applied to through Aringo (Cornell Tech, HEC Paris, IE), and got rejected from the only school I applied to on my own (Cambridge Judge), is the bottom line.

Ravit was extremely tentative - even in relaxed periods, I don't think I had to wait for more than a few hours for a response. Not to mention when the application deadlines were approaching.

Finally, Hila Yerushalmi from Aringo was very honest with me regarding my expectations and the schools I can get accepted to - together we built a list of schools which were all very challenging for me to get accepted to, but also realistic. I am very thankful for Hila's advise on the schools, and scholarships I chose - aiming as high as possible with my background.

Experience during the program

Best: The school has great atmosphere, candidates and length. 16 months are the best fit for an MBA program. Not too long, not too short. The diversity of the student body is overwhelming, and the thing that came to me as the most surprising fact is: The number of events. The MBA has an average of at least 1 event per day. That is simply overwhelming - about 18 clubs that organize 1-2 events per month each plus career services events and general events. To add to that, there are countless of other events organized by the school and other programs.

There is a general sensation of some disappointment from the career services of the program, but I think that this is just high expectations. Many complain that percentage of jobs found through the school isn't high enough (as opposed to personal networking), but when I compared that percentage to other schools I got very similar results.
