Hello,
Congrats. I just wanted to find out did you take a prep course? What was your strategy. What schools do you plan on applying to.
I'm planning on taking my test sometime this year, so I'm trying to get tips from people that have succeeded with 700+.
thanks
Drew

No prep course...Just a lot of independent studying...To see what resources I used and my strategy check my earlier posts under this topic. My goal is to get into Columbia Business School in 2011 or 2012.Hello,

I managed to find the PowerPrep software on a forum. I actually don't remember which one because i just googled it. If you'd like I can send it to you. As for the essay formats I basically used the PR version and modified it a little to make it seem a little more authentic. The quant section in OG 11 is very similar to what you'll see on the actual exam. Those questions from the OG are actually old exam questions.lux wrote:great work, jay!

Hi JRBROWN2,
That's a great debrief... I'm one of the victims of nervousness... In my first attempt, although I scored >700 in all my prep tests, I scored 660 (Q50 V 29) in the real GMAT... I've been doing LSAT CR and RCs right now... and feel more confident about the exam... I hope I'll stay calm this time and score >700 as you did...
