Good afternoon BTG Forum!!!
I am relatively new to the GMAT world, and am looking to approach this task with as many arrows in my quiver as possible! I know many of you have had successful experiences with the GMAT, and I'd love to benefit from them.
Just a little background on me...I'm 6 years removed from undergrad (Marketing and Finance), earned good marks (3.5 GPA), and held active leadership positions in student organizations (and collegiate athletics - football). Since undergrad, I've been working in a retirement planning and investment management capacity for a Fortune 500 company. I'm hoping these, paired with a strong application, letters of recommendation, and an impressive GMAT score will help ensure my admittance to a Top 10/Top 20 program.
This is where I could use any and everyone's assistance! I just completed an Advanced Kaplan course to learn the fundamentals, and will embark on a 4-6 week full time study regimen next week after I officially resign from my job (resigning b/c I plan to dedicate my full attention to the application process for several months, and then relocating to be closer to family for the next year). I plan on spending the next 4-6 weeks studying 30-40 hrs/week, and hope to successfully complete the GMAT by early May.
Does anyone have any guidance they can offer regarding how to best approach the next 4-6 weeks, or even a sample study guide?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
