My "restart"

by fltingley » Wed Mar 18, 2009 10:56 am
Hello, all! I feel like I am coming back to a good friend after years away. Here's the story...

1 1/2 years ago I was studying hard for my GMAT (including scouring this site daily) thinking I would be going to b-school shortly thereafter.

During my studies I received a big promotion and relocation in my current job, so I tabled the GMAT thinking that b-school was not right at that time in my life.

Well, now the b-school itch is creeping back in, as my job has hit a huge plateau. So that means back to the GMAT for me.

I am well-versed in most of the "rules" of the GMAT from my studies years ago, though in hindsight my strategies were not very sound. Therefore, I am planning on enrolling in a Kaplan GMAT class next week and taking my test shortly thereafter. Hopefully my sound existing base of knowledge and this new intensive time line will help put me over the edge.

Anyone have any commentary on my new strategy?
