I have done my graduation (BCOM) from Gujarat University and scored 70%, currently doing MCOM- Part-1 to fulfill the 16 years education requirement of B-schools in USA. I will be starting my preparation for GMAT shortly. If I manage to get 650+ in GMAT is there any scope to get into a good B-School in USA for my MBA in marketing. I have been working with my dad for the past 3 yrs and have also cleared CA foundation exam. I plan to go to USA in August 2012 intake. Please tell me shall I take up GMAT.

Dear avi.agarwal89,

If you want to go to business school, especially in the US, then you will need to take the GMAT. The higher the score, the better, but you definitely want to be in the upper 600's or in the 700's as an international applicant to be competitive. I encourage you to do some research on the MBA admissions process and a thorough self-assessment of your background to determine the best strategy for your future applications.

Good luck,
Lisa

"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."
