Folks:

In order for this site to be more scalable and stable in the future, we have to change our hosting. I have decided to switch my hosts from 1and1 to GoDaddy.

From 5:00 PM (Pacific Standard Time) 10/13 through the evening of 10/15, I will be disabling all new posts to this forum while I work with a contractor to migrate the Beat The GMAT! database to our new server.

My apologies for the inconvenience! Just to caveat--any new user registrations made between 10/13 and 10/15 may be lost during the migration, so some new people in the community may need to re-register.

Cross your fingers for a smooth transition! Thanks!

Yep, I think I would be open to adding more inbox space for folks.

Excellent.

You'll be pretty happy with GoDaddy.

Also use their analytical tools (if they provide them to you with your account) well. It's muchos helpful analyzing the who/where/when of your visitors.

(PS: I hope you're doing a dry run first. In spite of GoDaddy's sustained quality, I've still encountered minor issues in the past during dry runs. No server is exempt from a few hiccups in the beginning.)

I'm sure there will be plenty of hiccups.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
