Hello,

So far it looks like you’re on target with the school selection, except for Texas, which I think will be out of range. Given your industry and demographic groups, which tend to be over-represented and where higher GMAT is the norm, I believe you’d need a higher GMAT to be a viable candidate at Texas. Luckily, there are many other excellent programs to consider in the range where you’d be competitive.

Good luck with your MBA plans!

Best regards,

Hello,

Sure. I’m referring to schools such as Indiana, Rochester (Simon), Emory, Georgia Institute of Technology, Minnesota (Carlson), and so forth. This list contains a range of competitiveness, to be sure. All these programs have a lot to offer; it will take some research on your part but I’m sure you can find several schools in this broad range that meet your needs.

"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."
