Hi everybody,
I am Balaji

Presently 3 yrs exp and working for TCS. I had been a guest here for close to 4 months..but joined only recently.
Been preparing for MBA for 2010 batch, targeting mainly US. My GMAT levels in Powerprep & Kaplan are close to 680, but I messed when it mattered most, scoring only 590 in the REAL test!!

That's my story..
All the best to everyone here....Nice to be in finally.
Thanks
Balaji S

Hello everyone,

My name is Alex, I'm from Bucharest, Romania and I currently live in Paris, France.

I work in the IT industry and am currently working for a french bank. I've been doing IT development for about 8 years now, and I think it's time I passed to the next level.

I'd like to try taking the GMAT before the end of the year and to try my luck at one these schools:

London School of Economics
London Business School
HEC
