Thanks for sharing your experience Rishi,

What was your source for Quant ?

Thank You
Sorry, forgot to reply to your query earlier. I didn't have any great Quant source. I had used some material for an Indian business school entrance exam called CAT. Apart from that, nothing great as such.

The application process is going great. The only bad thing about the process is that it's boring and tiring. Here's why
->You write the first draft of an essay
-->You re-write it and then proofread it
-->You ask 1-2 people's feeback on the essay and
-->And then you modify the essays on the basis of their feedback
-->You follow the same procedure for all the essays.
And even after doing all this, I still don't feel very confident about the essays-whether they'll be good enough for the top schools. My target is Stanford and Wharton in the first round, btw. Could apply to one school more, but wanna really concentrate on these ones.

Hey Rishi,

If I remember correctly did you take TOEFL also this year in January at San Luis Obispo.
Cos I met a person of same name and score credentials there.

Anyways your score is great!
Let me know how your whole admission process goes by.
I will be applying to Business Schools for round 2 deadline.

Hi Rishi,

Would like a piece of advice from you. Which LSAT books do I refer to in case i wanna particularly strengthen my CR skills. I am using the Manhattan book but I strongly feel that I am weak at it (esp the weaken the argument) questions. Any idea about good LSAT CR material?? Also any suggestions to work on the same..

I'd suggest that you go through Thursdays with Ron videos and see if Ron has done some session on Strengthen/Weaken type of questions.That should be helpful. I didn't use any specific LSAT material.I think that there's a 101 CR document available on Aristotle Prep.You can use it if you want.

Seems like this thread is under spam attack. I have deleted a couple of posts but all these nonsense post about male "enhancement" keep creeping up :/ Very Happy
