What are the rules on this? Do you get ONE shot per year? Does it depend on the school you're applying for?

Also, do most schools start R1 around October/November? From what I've seen, this seems to be the case.

If you are denied admission, you will need to wait until the next admissions cycle to reapply. This will give you time to evaluate and address the weak points of your application. You should aim for R1 in the next year's cycle in order to give yourself a better chance. R1 deadlines are usually within the October/November timeframe however you should begin working on your application as soon as possible. Finally, you should not merely resubmit the exact same application - there is a reason it was denied and it should be addressed.

"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."
