Hello everyone,
I'm posting because I am in desperate need of some advice on how to tackle this test.
Little bit of background:
I've always wanted to go to Business School and from it, get a great job and get some great networking out of it. I currently hold a degree in Bus Admin from SJSU. My work experience is basically ten years of retail sales (3+ in leadership) with one year of medical billing thrown in the mix.
I have purchased the full set of Manhattan GMAT books (about 2 years old?) and signed up for a Veritas course (got the books as well). Sadly, I went to a couple of Veritas classes but stopped going. It felt like everyone else was so far ahead of me when it came to understanding the basics or picking up on things, especially when it came to Math. I've only ever taken one exam, which I don't really count because I became frustrated and just pretty much guessed my way out of it.
Couple of questions;
-I heard that the test has changed;does that make my books out of date?
-Are different programs such as Manhattan, Veritas, etc catered to different styles/people?
I thing that I really need to refresh on the basics before I can get into any of the more complicated stuff that the test throws as me.
Currently I am just to get a score of close to 670-700.
