This question is regarding the 5 schools that you can send your scores to for free.
I am preparing to take the GMAT in first week of August.

Do I need to inform the schools I will be sending the scores to in advance?
If so, what is the procedure?

Thanks in advance

dipbha,

No, you do not need to inform the schools. The schools will be able to view your score report once it is made official.

How it usually works:

Step 1. Write GMAT and select 5 schools which should receive the scores
Step 2. Submit application to the schools. You will be required to submit your GMAT Appointment Number
Step 3. Upon receiving your application, the school will verify your GMAT score online. Note that the school will only be able to do so if you had selected them as one of the five schools to receive the score OR if you had later ordered the score report to be sent to that school.

Drifting a bit from the topic.... Ideally, the five schools that you put down should consists of 2 dream schools, 2 reach schools and 1 safety school. Five applications per admission year is optimum. Anything over 5 could leave you flustered and hurried, while anything less than 5 would be risky and would put you under immense pressure.

Hope this helps

"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."
