Hi everyone,

I`ve just finished my bachelor degree in telecommunications and I am planning to apply for an MBA in the near future. Two weeks ago I started a Graduate program for one of the biggest European voice and data carriers to gain the required working experience. However, I am a newbie to the GMAT test and I don`t know where to start from? I am hesitating between GMAT Official Guide 12th Edition and some of the Princeton books!?

Welcome to our community!

There are a few things you can do:
- research the structure of the test: details on wikipedia and mba.com, the official site of the makers of the GMAT
- get some relevant books: you'll need the official guide of practice and some other book for strategy.

What I recommend is taking just ONE of the two free practice tests provided on mba.com, figuring out your weaknesses and your current level and investing in guides accordingly. Good luck!
