Ok, I am 28 years old chemical engineer. My exam is in January 9h and I just started my preparations. Until now, I have no problem except with the long multiplication and division specially with decimals since I am used to the calculator. My target score is 550 and hopefully I can get it.

Hello

BFA (That's right, Fine art. Don't laugh, art is the serious business.) I am taking the GMAT in April 2010. My target score 650-680. I just discovered this forum and I'm psyched! I'll be studying hard over the next 3 months and lurking around, might post some questions too. Anyways, back to work. Cheers!

Hi,

My name is Samuel. I studied business in Barcelona. I have 5 years work experience in IT/consultancy field (1.5 in India).

I already took the exam n got a 520, which is by no means enough. I am aiming at around 650.

The Gmat Prep test i took were around 600.

Anyway, i hope i can take advantage of this site and share my experiences.

Cheers,
Samu

Well, I have been an active member once upon a time before my MBA.... Then got really busy with the course work and stuff and now, I am back. For me I am interested in pursuing a PhD in Operations Management.. So, here I am again, I thought I would never kill the GMAT demon and time has proved me wrong... I indeed need to kill it.

If anybody knows what it takes to get an Admit for PhD in a good institute, let me know :)
