2 Questions

1) Is there a big difference between taking a mgmat course than just buying all their books and studying through them. Does it help to take the course with instuctors ???

2) I am a freshman in college should i start studying for the gmat, do you think it is to early for someone to start studying for this test or should i wait till my senior year ?????

Hi Philip123,

We have experts from both MGMAT (Stacey Koprince) and Kaplan (Stuart Kovinsky), I would suggest that you discuss your doubts with them, depending on your preference over Kaplan or MGMAT. You can either drop them a PM or post a question in the GMAT strategy thread describing your situation, I am sure you will get the best possible answer.

Regarding your second question, I would say ideally, for someone who is still in college and in touch with maths, 3-5 months of prep should be more than enough for a score of more than 700. If you feel like you are not good at the quant part I would suggest to add a couple of months more to it, that is about 5-6 months.

Regards

I just wanted to let you know that the GMAT score lasts 5 years. That should help in determining WHEN you take the test.

It is better to take the test in the fourth year.

"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."
