thanks Eric.
The Oxford MBA is a one year program though so I can't get a summer job between years 1 and 2.
Do you have contacts to Oxford Alumni through this blog. They might be able to help me too.
Thanks

MBA in Oxford - Work in Canada
Hey All, I wanted to know that if I pursue an MBA at Oxford, how can I best help myself get a job in Canada after the MBA. Obviously most of Oxfords jobs will be in Europe. I realise that I wil have to do my own networking, but I am really looking for my chances of getting a job back home. Is an Oxf...

Hey all, I am in the exact same boat!!!
I had a strategy for every type of question and I didn't feel nervous in the exam. I didn't get any of the standard questions!!! Ended up with a 610 when I was expecting a 700.
Don't know how to approach the 2nd round of my studying.

Hi Prasanna, I am going to review all my previous CATs and really work hard at analysing my mistakes. The problem is that I went into the exam with good strategies for all the question types, but especially in the quant, I did not get any of the typical math questions....this confuded me and I am tr...

only 610 - Not Happy - How Can I improve????
It seems like I'm in the same boat as a lot of people. I was shocked at my score. I was scoring between 600 and 640 on the MGMAT CAT's and got 670 on the GMAT Prep CAT before doing the actual test. I felt confident and I wasn't nervous during the test. Don't know what happened? I was told that the M...

I took the GMAT prep about a month ago and got 570. Since then I have been doing Manhattan tests on which I am getting avg 600. I have done only the first GMATprep because I am saving the second one for just before the actual test. Since I am not working now, I dedicated every day/(6 - 8 hours) (Mon...

I haven't taken it before. This would be my first time. I guess the worry is always that twice is not sufficient and I would have to take it a third time!!!! :? Following our discussions I thought about just delaying it by one week, which would give me that little extra time to practice after the Ma...

Hi, I have been analysing my results from my practice tests and what I find is that I can do the majority of the questions I get wrong afterwords only. During the test I seem to pick the one answer that is slight different from the wrong one. This is clearly evident in the SC & CR. I'll choose C...

Please HELP!! Not getting anywhere!!
I moved this post from another area to this correct area. Thanks I just finished my 3rd Manhatan GMAT prep simulation and I scored 590. The last two times over the last week I got 610 and 600, respectively. Although these scores are an improvement from when I took my first exam a month ago (510) I ...

I'm in a similar boat
Hey Chengx, I am in a similar situation to you. I have never taken the test, but like you, I have done a lot of examples and I still cannot seem to nail this exam. I am underperforming in my simulations because of timing and because I just can't seem to answer the questions correctly. Eric and Stace...

Hi Stacey,
Sorry that was me who posted the last one, forgot to log in.
I'll copy the post to the RC discussion so that it stays in the proper area.

Hi Stacey, I have just completed 40 questions using the diagramming technique (using books I just purchased i.e. latest ones) and it took me about 3min/question. The diagramming technique seems to take more time than we have per question. Is there something I can do to improve my time? I have also h...

courses are a possibility, but the ones offered here tend to focus more on the quant rather than teh verbal, which is where I feel I need the most help. I have looked into doing the online course. perhaps I can achieve the same result with that?
