Hi Folks:

I recently started preparing for GMAT. Due to very hectic work schedule, I could not find much time to prepare. I have now decided to take 1 month off from my job for preparation and write GMAT in the first week or mid of December. Will it be too late for admissions in fall of 2012 if I take GMAT in Decemeber 2011? I understand I am too late for the first deadlines. But will I be in time for the second deadlines? Should I go ahead or drop the idea of admission in 2012 and try for 2013? Also if I plan to take the exam in December, should I start preparing for the applications right away?

Any information would be truly appreciated.
Thanks!

Most of the US B-schools will have their Round 2 deadlines in early Jan, so you should be in time for applying in Round 2. You can take a look at deadlines for other schools on our homepage www.colormeone.com

Should you delay applying for another year? Well, that is a different decision altogether and will depend on many other factors.

Yes, you should definitely start the applications simultaneously as you prepare for the GMAT.

Good Luck!

"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."
