Hi everyone,

I'm a 26 yrs old offshore engineer from Norway (3 yrs experience). I'm planning to take the gmat in august :) My goal is to score over 700, or more actually.

after the test I will go back to university to take my masters degree in offshore structures.

I'm hoping to take my MBA somewhere in the US in a few years time, hopefully still motivated for more schooling :)

Wish me luck!

Hi there osloknight, and thanks very much for that introduction! I had a friend who worked at Schlumberger a while ago, and I think that he was on an offshore rig off of Norway at one point too.

Don't hesitate to ask for help from our friendly community. We're here to see you succeed, best of luck!

Thanks alot for making me feel welcome, I'm glad to have found this community. I have been reading your blog, and Dana's book reviews and study plans, they have been very helpful on planning my self study.

Right now I'm in info-mode, and I will probably have lots to ask during the summer!
