I started the MGMAT class Dec 7, and it ends Feb 17. Now I'm trying to figure out the best time to take the test.

I have to do it on the weekend, but the big question is: March 5 or March 12? Any extra weekend means an extra practice exam and an extra week of studying.... But, then again, March 5 is pretty much exactly three months of studying, and I wonder if that last week will really make any difference or if I risk overload.

Any thoughts would certainly be appreciated!

Honestly speaking, one week ain't going to make a quantifiable difference to your score,so if you were to take the exam on March 5th or 12th, I think you'll probably end up getting the same score,give or take 10 points. A better measure would to see how much prepared do you feel now and do you think that in one month of preparation, you'll be sufficiently prepared to get your desired score.

"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.

"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."
