Looking for MOOCs

I will be joining a program soon and got admitted but as a requirement I need about 8-10 ECTS points (about 250-300 hours) in either economics, management, finance or marketing. I was told I could do this through online courses and I have been browsing for some good ones since. Does anybody have som...

MsC in the states?

I graduated recently and I am thinking to study one or max two more years after this. I have no work experience and as such cannot do an MBA. I checked out a lot of schools in europe where we have the possibility to do an MsC in management. I didn't really think about checking schools in the states ...

Hello, thanks for the responses. I just wrote 3 of them and all 3 got a 6. Since this is the first time I had a go at them I have no idea if they would deserve a 6 or if that wouldn't be the case at all. I'll paste all 3 of them here. If somebody, with some kind of experience in AWA scoring, could g...

Essay-graders

Can anybody tell me if there are good free essay-graders out there? I'm confused if the original Mba one used on the actual exam is available or not? I can't seem to find it.. And about other available ones; are they representative? I just tried an essay for the first time and got graded 6.0 with gm...

Taking the gmat in a non english speaking country

I'm living in spain for a half a year and will probably do the gmat here quite soon.
I guess there shouldn't be a difference with taking the gmat in your own country but just to make sure, did anybody ever have a bad experience taking the gmat in another than his native country?

Thanks in advance

Gmat prep 740

Hello, I took the first gmat prep test today and got 740. 50 Quant en 41 Verb. I was astounded by the result (at first I thought the software just showed me an example of what the score result would look like). I didn't know what to expect but I thought I would have gotten a score between 500 and 60...
