I applied to UCLA Anderson as my top choice and was lucky to have Lin in my corner as he was very attuned to my situation and application needs right off the bat. As someone with a somewhat "generic" but strong background, having Lin's guidance to take my application to the next level was vital. His insight into the application process was valuable to me and his tactical approach worked well for me. He has a very keen understanding of what Admissions Committees acutely look for and was able to substantially improve my essay responses, resume, and my interview answers. Highly recommend for anyone who is looking to be accepted into a top-ranked program.

With an average gmat score, I was apprehensive about getting an admit from a top B- school.I enrolled into the 3 school package with Aringo and got an opportunity to work with Lin Zhao.

From the Initial Strategy session , Lin was keen to understand my background and goals, and helped me differentiate my application. He always made me think hard on my essays to help me identify unique information from my life story. His feedback on essays was always very specific and yet very encouraging. What I admire the most is his flexibility. In R2, when I was pressed for time, he went out of the way to help me submit my application within the deadline.
The mock interview session with Lin was a game changer, which boosted my confidence multifold and helped me ace my b-school interview. I would highly recommend every one to leverage the mock interview session of Aringo.

I can safely say that all the effort Lin put in to help me with my application, earned me an admit with McDonough School of Business.

I sincerely thank Aringo, whose 3 school package was a value for money and whose consultant - Lin Zhao was highly professional.

After speaking with Michelle on the phone, I hired Aringo for a 4-school package and was incredibly thankful that I did. Michelle matched me with a great consultant (Lin) that took my resume and essays to the next level, and helped me practice my interviewing skills. Lin rarely took more than 24 hours to respond to emails which was super important to me because I was working every day on my writing pieces. I ended up enrolling at Indiana (Kelley) where I am set to graduate in a few months, thanks in part to Aringo. My advice to anyone beginning their MBA journey is to go with the firm that you feel most comfortable with (and of course within your budget). For me, that was Aringo.

Michelle and Lin were very responsive throughout the application and always provided critical feedback. I chose the hourly service since I only need to polish my essays. I was able to get most of my essays done within a short amount of time, and received interview invite from 5 out of the 7 schools I applied.

Once I received the interviews, Michelle was able to line up with different consultants from those schools to conduct mock interviews with me. I find it really helpful as I get to know more about the schools as well as the specific things each school is looking for.

Overall I had a great experience with ARINGO and would definitely recommend it to other applicants!
