Hi, my name is Cody. I am a student studying Finance and Chinese at a Private, Liberal Arts college in the United States. I have been thinking for some time about going to B-School but didn't know a ton about it. After researching quite a bit, I targeted 3 main schools that I am most interested in. These schools are Harvard, Stanford, and London Business School. I realized there are a number of things that I needed to address to be considered for candidacy, which included doing extremely well on the GMAT. Through Beatthegmat, I have come to a general understanding of what it takes to prepare. I purchased the entire Manhattan GMAT, Powerscore Critical Reasoning Bible, GMAT OG 13, Kaplan 800, and Manhattan Advanced Quant text. I have begun studying with Manhattan Quant and plan on moving forward from there. Any advice or tips are greatly appreciated, and I look forward to beating the GMAT with all of you!
